ImportError: cannot import name 'Badge' from 'anybadge'

Hi there, I'm trying to use code snippet from README.md:

import anybadge

# Define thresholds: <2=red, <4=orange <8=yellow <10=green
thresholds = {2: 'red',
              4: 'orange',
              6: 'yellow',
              10: 'green'}

badge = anybadge.Badge('pylint', 2.22, thresholds=thresholds)

badge.write_badge('pylint.svg')

And getting ImportError: cannot import name 'Badge' from 'anybadge' error.

Reproduced in both Python 2.7 and 3.7 environments, I used Docker:

FROM python:3.7
RUN apt-get update -y && \
    apt-get install nano -y && \
    pip install anybadge && \
    pip list
COPY . /opt
RUN python /opt/anybadge.py

..and anybadge.py with code above

I think your issue is that you have a file called anybadge.py, which means, in your code when you run import anybadge you are actually importing your anybadge.py file, and not the anybadge package.

You should be able to fix this by using a different filename (e.g. run_anybadge.py) and then using:

FROM python:3.7
RUN apt-get update -y && \
    apt-get install nano -y && \
    pip install anybadge && \
    pip list
COPY . /opt
RUN python /opt/run_anybadge.py

You could also consider running anybadge as a command rather than in Python, meaning you don't even need the Python module, so something like this:

FROM python:3.7
RUN apt-get update -y && \
    apt-get install nano -y && \
    pip install anybadge && \
    pip list
RUN anybadge --value=2.22 --file=pylint.svg pylint
