Command 'Vyper: Compile' resulted in an error (command 'vyper.compileContract' not found)
Closed this issue · 11 comments
I'm getting this error when trying to compile a vyper contract in VS Code with the tintinweb vyper extension.
Command 'Vyper: Compile' resulted in an error (command 'vyper.compileContract' not found)
My setup:
Python 3.8.6
Vyper 0.2.5+commit.a0c561c
VS code 1.50
Windows 10
Vyper is in my user path (running windows 10) and can be called directly if I open a terminal.
I installed Vyper through pip install vyper.
[edit]
I don't use a virtual environment, as this is the only python / vyper project I'm doing on the machine
[/edit]
It also gives a source path error, with a leading /
I've deleted the extension folder named tintinweb.vscode-vyper-0.0.9 in VScode and also deleted it from my %user_profile%.vscode\extensions folder
It seems there are a couple of errors, scenarios below:
- Vyper: Compile from the command palette:
[Compiler Exception] TypeError: Cannot read property 'toString' of undefined
I can not reproduce this outside of vsCode
- Saving a Vyper file:
[Compiler Error] OSError: [WinError 123] The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect: "''\c:\temp\Scratches\banana.vy''"
I can reproduce this on the command line. (see below).
Hey @DataBeast-IT,
thanks for reporting this issue.
I think the problem is that I am passing the uri.path instead of the filesystem path to the compiler. on *nix/macos this is actually the same that's why I don't see the error here. on windows it is different.
I believe this should be fairly easy to fix. Would you be down to testing the release candidate before I publish it to confirm that this is fixed?
Sure!
How do I do that? ;-)
@DataBeast-IT here's a preview: vscode-vyper-0 0 10 vsix
- download
- rename from
pngto.vsixand install in vscode.
let me know if that fixes your problem.
I will check it on windows after the weekend, I have no access to that box at the moment.
Below is Linux!
(should this be splitted in a windows an linux issue btw?)
Just to make sure it still works on ubuntu I tried your 0.0.10 extension on my ubuntu 20 box.
2 scenario's:
-
altering a .vy file, doing CTRL+S to save does not give a popup or error message.
I'm not sure if it compiled at all. -
using command palette doing Vyper:Compile gives this error
[Compiler Exception] TypeError: Cannot read property 'toString' of undefined
after uninstalling the 0.0.10 version, deleting it from .vscode/extensions and reinstalling 0.0.9 the compile on save function works again.
Going through the menu tells me
[Compiler Exception] TypeError: Cannot read property 'toString' of undefined
Generic question: When I compile, where does the compiled contract end up? No file is created in any directory. I checked /usr/local/bin where the vyper executable is located. Nothing to be found.

we take output artifacts from stdout.
the vsix I shared with you previously was broken. I've fixed a couple of issues, briefly tested it on windows, and repackaged it. Please try this one @DataBeast-IT:
On the windows box:
- saving a changed .vy gives a [compiler success] popup
- using the command palette doing Vyper:compile gives the same popup
So that is working now 👍
Observations:
- on opening a .vy file, the extension compiles the smart contract right away and shows the popup.
- there is no output file created, debug / output windows in VScode show nothing. Within the open folder there are no new files.
How do I find my output? I tried adding some vyper parameters. It still compiles but nothing changes.
we currently dont save these artifacts. the compile step is basically used to detect if there are any compile-time issues with your code.
happy to implement that though, shouldn't be a lot of work.
Ah ok! That makes sense!
Thanks for your help!
