TypeError: 'builtin_function_or_method' object is not iterable

[Krupskis]

Describe the bug Running matrx runs into TypeError in site-packages/matrx/api/api.py", line 896, in __fetch_state_dicts To Reproduce mac m1 python: 3.9.6 This is the requirements of my project.

matrx          == 2.2.0

# all requirements below are
# additional libraries provided to do this assignment.

# libraries used by matrx and their versions, excl webserver stuff
bidict         == 0.21.2
chardet        == 4.0.0
colour         == 0.1.5
docutils       == 0.16
jsonpickle     == 1.5.1
Werkzeug       == 2.0.0
flask          == 2.1.3

# Other libraries requested by students and added to make sure
# Everyone uses the same versions.

Expected behavior I would expect no TypeError. Stacktrace The POST error just keeps getting printed every second.

Hi @Krupskis, thanks for filing the bug. Sorry for the belated response. Could you give a bit more context on what exactly you are running?

[Krupskis]

@jwaa Hi, I figured it out, I think. The issue was me naming the agent id. Since id is a builtin method, it resulted in the TypeError. Weird edge case, but I assume any agent id that matches the built-in function or method name will result in this error.

[jwaa]

@Krupskis, good to hear you figured it out on your own. Indeed a strange edge-case. Could you share your built world and - if you have one - your custom agent? That way we can test it ourselves and either solve it or make a more elligible stacktrace.

https://github.com/rsverhagen94/TUD-Collaborative-AI-2023 This is the world I am using. You can find the installation guide in the README. Once you run it it will ask you for several prompts. Might not work with python 3.10 and above.

1. Choose official world
2. Use id as a human name, or any other built-in function should work
3. Choose normal

The world will start and you should see the terminal blow up with the TypeError messages.
