Environs not recognized?

[Pixeluchiha]

I get the following error when I try to run.py. I just downloaded the newest build of the project, as my old one was very outdated. Added my teams, changed the "env" file to a .env, put the master folder into my python folder, installed the requirements.txt, then ran the run.py. I tried figuring it out myself, but I just don't know why this error is showing up, as everything looks correct. Only thing I can guess is something to do with the "environs.py", but I never had to mess with that up until this point, so I don't know what to do there to resolve anything.

Did you not save your file?

The editor shows *.env, which usually indicates you have outstanding changes in the editor that you did not save to disk.

[Pixeluchiha]

I did have it saved. I left it unsaved in the screenshot so I can close it without having to reinput my login information. I even tried it using old .env settings that used to work, and it gives the same error. My leading theory is that it is an outdated repository, but I don't know how I would update the repository, as every time I try to clone it it tells me it already exists and is not empty. I don't really have any basis for this theory, though, just that I went through all the steps again of installing the code, yet I can't change that one step because the directory already exists.

I was able to clear the old directory and clone the repository, but I still get the same error, so it seems that wasn't the issue.

[Pixeluchiha]

Was looking at the config file to see the differences between it and an older one I downloaded in 2021, and now I'm thinking that the issue has something to do with the "config" file or "run", considering the significant changes it seems to have, the main one seeming to be the addition of "ShowdownConfig". I don't exactly know anything still, so the config could mean nothing. I would think I should be able to download the files and run the code like normal considering no one else has any issues like this it seems, so I think it is because I used to use an older version?

Oh - I believe your terminal is in the home directory of your user (the blanked out name).

You may need to change directories to be in the same folder as the bot (showdown-master)

[Pixeluchiha]

I apologize if I'm slow to understand things, I'm new to things like this. Could you tell me how to change directories? The showdown-master folder is within the user folder, and in no other place. There is also a "showdown" folder within the blanked out user folder that was cloned from the repository. Would it help to send a screenshot or do you not need it?

[Pixeluchiha]

I'll also include that this is the command I use to run the python: "python C:\Users\blank\Pixeluchiha\Python-3.9\showdown-master\run.py"

[pmariglia]

Take a look at this: https://www.howtogeek.com/659411/how-to-change-directories-in-command-prompt-on-windows-10/

You want to be in the showdown-master directory, and then run python run.py

[Pixeluchiha]

I'm still getting the same error: environs.EnvError: Environment variable "BATTLE_BOT" not set

[pmariglia]

I just booted up my windows machine as was able to get it working with the following steps using Python 3.9.

1. Download the source code, put into my Documents folder
2. Open Command-Prompt
3. Navigate to the showdown-master folder with cd Documents and then cd showdown-master
4. Install requirements with pip install -r requirements.txt
5. Edit the env file in Notepad to the following (be sure to save it with cntrl+s):

   
   BATTLE_BOT=safest
   WEBSOCKET_URI=sim.smogon.com:8000
   PS_USERNAME=<REDACTED>
   PS_PASSWORD=<REDACTED>
   BOT_MODE=SEARCH_LADDER
   POKEMON_MODE=gen9randombattle
   RUN_COUNT=1

USER_TO_CHALLENGE=SomeOtherPerson TEAM_NAME=gen8/ou/clef_sand SAVE_REPLAY=False

6. Run with `python run.py`

The bot runs just fine. Terminal output up until the battle starts:

This worked for me, thank you! I don't quite understand what wasn't working with the old file path, but I am happy you helped me figure this out! (Just checked again, seems like it will only work if the directory is within showdown-master, and wont work if it just points to it)

[Pixeluchiha]

Now I'm going to test if my other issue, removing Tera and Dynamax, is also resolved.
