ImportError: cannot import name properties

Hi –

I’m sure that this is a basic question, but I am having trouble importing the files needed to run to run WeasyPrint.

My code, up to the error:

import weasyprint
from __future__ import print_function
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import argparse
from jinja2 import Environment, FileSystemLoader
from weasyprint import HTML

The Error

----> 6 import weasyprint
      7 from __future__ import print_function
      8 import pandas as pd

...   /python2.7/site-packages/weasyprint/__init__.py in <module>()
    373 
    374 # Work around circular imports.
--> 375 from .css import preprocess_stylesheet  # noqa
    376 from .html import (
    377     find_base_url, HTML5_UA_STYLESHEET, HTML5_PH_STYLESHEET,

...   /python2.7/site-packages/weasyprint/css/__init__.py in <module>()
     27 import tinycss2
     28 
---> 29 from . import properties
     30 from . import computed_values
     31 from .descriptors import preprocess_descriptors

ImportError: cannot import name properties

I am running this code on a Jupyter notebook using a Mac. Is there a simple package that I am missing that I can pip install? Thank you

@liZe Solved!

For anyone else having this problem it is due to missing dependencies, to fix ssh into ec2 box and run this command:

sudo yum install cairo cairo-devel cairomm-devel libjpeg-turbo-devel pango pango-devel pangomm pangomm-devel giflib-devel

To save time you can include these dependencies in your .ebextensions/django.config file
