NameError: name 'pycococreatortools' is not defined

[anmspro]

I have installed using this:

!pip install cython
!pip install git+git://github.com/waspinator/coco.git@2.1.0

But still I got this error. Whole code:

# go through each image
for image_filename in image_files:
    image = Image.open(IMAGE_DIR + '/' + image_filename)
    image_info = pycococreatortools.create_image_info(image_id, os.path.basename(image_filename), image.size)

    coco_output["images"].append(image_info)

# go through each associated annotation
for annotation_filename in annotation_files:

    print(annotation_filename)
    class_id = [x['id'] for x in CATEGORIES if x['name'] in annotation_filename][0]
    category_info = {'id': class_id, 'is_crowd': 'crowd' in image_filename}
    binary_mask = np.asarray(Image.open(annotation_filename).convert('1')).astype(np.uint8)

    annotation_info = pycococreatortools.create_annotation_info(segmentation_id, image_id, category_info, binary_mask, image.size, tolerance=2)

    if annotation_info is not None:
        coco_output["annotations"].append(annotation_info)

    segmentation_id = segmentation_id + 1

    image_id = image_id + 1

with open('train/images.json', 'w') as output_json_file:
    json.dump(coco_output, output_json_file)

I still don't know if the code works or not. Please help!

Same here. pycococreatortools is 2 levels above shapes and it seems it has not been installed properly.

Edit: My bad. On the root folder run python setup.py install to install packages. It works now. Swtich to root folder and then "pip install .". Never use setup.py install.

@colt18 I have done as you said. Then imported the module as import pycococreatortools. But I still getting a error:

AttributeError: module 'pycococreatortools' has no attribute 'create_image_info'

Do you have any suggestions?

Solved: used from pycococreatortools import pycococreatortools.
