Getting language not known error for a lang tag that is present in Hyperglot

[NeilSureshPatel]

I attempted to run a check on abi and abn which I have confirmed are in Hyperglot. I get a Language xxx not known error for both. I get this error when I run a check in mol as well but mol is not in Hyperglot, so that makes sense. There is a stale branch named "comparison" of Hyperglot that does not have the abi and abn tags but has other tags that I have tried successfully. I am wondering if the Hyperglot data is coming from the wrong branch.

If I print(langs) in cli.py I get 659 records. When I count the number of records in the master branch of Hyperglot I get 723 records, in case that is helpful to know.

I think I see what the problem is. It looks like shaperglot has a hyperglot-0.3.3 dependency. I tried to upgrade the hyperglot install to 0.4.1 but shaperglot didn't like that.

Oh, bother, have they changed things? I'll take a look.

This feels like a hyperglot issue - maybe something broken in your venv? I am also using 0.4.1 and it seems fine:

 $ python3 -m shaperglot  ~/work/nastaliq/gulzar/fonts/ttf/Gulzar-Regular.ttf abi
Font does not fully support language 'abi'
 * Some base glyphs were missing: ɩ, ɔ, Ʋ, ʋ, Ɛ, Ɩ, ɛ, Ɔ
 * Some mark glyphs were missing: ̌

$ python3 
>>> import hyperglot
>>> hyperglot.__version__
'0.4.1'
>>> from shaperglot.languages import Languages
>>> len(Languages())
723
>>> from hyperglot.languages import Languages as HGLanguages
>>> len(HGLanguages())
723

Can't confirm this, actually. A fresh install gives me this:

I'm not familiar with poetry, but it does look like Shaperglot requires Hyperglot 0.3.3 here.

Hyperglot API has stayed the same since, but [https://github.com/rosettatype/hyperglot/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md](a lot of data was added).

[simoncozens]

OK, I can loosen that requirement so we get the latest hyperglot on install.

[NeilSureshPatel]

Thanks @simoncozens. When I installed hyperglot 0.4.1, I got the following error.

ERROR: shaperglot 0.0 has requirement hyperglot==0.3.3, but you'll have hyperglot 0.4.1 which is incompatible.

I reran the import as you did above however and it does seem to be working for me now.
