Chatterbot : AttributeError: module 'time' has no attribute 'clock'

I am trying to create a chatbot, but since latest version of chatterbot was not getting installed on my pc so I installed chatterbot by using pip install chatterbot==1.0.4 and the following error is showing up.
How do I resolve this?
Below is the code:
from chatterbot import ChatBot
from chatterbot.trainers import ListTrainer
bot = ChatBot("My Bot")
convo = [
'hello',
'hi there',
'what is your name?',
'My name is BOT, I am created my a hooman ',
'how are you',
'i am doing great these days',
'thank you',
'in which city you live',
'i live in kalyan',
'in which languages do you speak',
'i mostly talk in english'
]
trainer=ListTrainer(bot)
trainer.train(convo)
print("Talk to Bot")
while True:
query=input()
if query=='exit':
break
answer=bot.get_response
print("bot : ", answer)

AttributeError: module 'time' has no attribute 'clock'

I agree with #Glycerine's answer, well, if you don't want to downgrade your python version, I have another solution for you.
Open the file <Python-folder>\Lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy\util\compat.py
Go to line 264 which states:
if win32 or jython:
time_func = time.clock
else:
time_func = time.time
Change it to:
if win32 or jython:
#time_func = time.clock
pass
else:
time_func = time.time
Simply here we are avoiding the use of timer.clock method and the time_func object because I saw that this object is just created for nothing and does nothing. It is just created and left untouched.
I don't know why even this exists when it is of no use. But this should work for you.
Hope it helped!

What version of python are you running? time.clock has been removed for py 3.8+
Solutions include downgrading python or altering the source it seems:
AttributeError: module 'time' has no attribute 'clock' in Python 3.8
From the Python 3.8 doc:
The function time.clock() has been removed, after having been deprecated since Python 3.3: use time.perf_counter() or time.process_time() instead, depending on your requirements, to have well-defined behavior. (Contributed by Matthias Bussonnier in bpo-36895.)
Solution for - AttributeError: module 'time' has no attribute 'clock'
In Response to your comment: I'm assuming the chatterbox devs will fix this eventually but yes, downgrading to Python 3.7 will fix this: https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/time.html#time.clock
Deprecated since version 3.3, will be removed in version 3.8: The behaviour of this function depends on the platform: use perf_counter() or process_time() instead, depending on your requirements, to have a well defined behaviour.

Im not an expert, but have you tried 'import time' in the top of your code. Worked for me when I was using time.sleep() in my pythoncode

sorry if the question is stupid I'm new with coding and been trying to do some research with no result I used ICMP instead of TCP also before on my old os but its not working after changing to parrot os and when I run pdfdump I get that error above

This is a bug in scapy3k.packet indeed - it tries to import pyx and silently continue if there's any import error, which leads to your problem:
try:
import pyx
except ImportError:
pass
You should fill a bug report in the project's github - the package should properly declare it's dependencies on 3rd part packages so they get installed alongside, and it should definitly not silence the fact that a required import failed.
In the meantime you can try installing pyx yourself - it might just work, or it might break elsewhere depending on versions compat.

You should use scapy instead of scapy3k, it contains those fixes and a better interception of PyX
FTR:
scapy3k = fork based on scapy 2.2.0 which used to be the only one supporting python 3
scapy (from secdev) = the original one, up-to-date that also works with python 3 since scapy 2.4.0+

Hard to believe this issue is still around after 3yrs. This is to inform anyone else who lands here wanting to know how to fix this problem.
It is due to "Intended" lazy import placed on the installation as it would require GB/s of downloaded files to support the TeX backend. Thus, this is an intentional error by the scapy project itself.
You need to install MikTeX and LiveTex as it is not evident.
LiveTex can be downloaded from here

NLTK was unable to find stanford-postagger.jar! Set the CLASSPATH environment variable

I am working on a project that requires me to tag tokens using nltk and python. So I wanted to use this. But came up with a few problems.
I went through a lot of other already asked questions and other forums but I was still unable to get a soultion to this problem.
The problem is when I try to execute the following:
from nltk.tag import StanfordPOSTagger
st = StanfordPOSTagger('english-bidirectional-distsim.tagger')
I get the following:
Traceback (most recent call last):
`File "<pyshell#13>", line 1, in <module>

I already set the

I tried it as C:\Users\MY3\Desktop\nltk\stanford as well..

I tried doing this as well..in vain
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\nltk\tag\stanford.py", line 45, in __init__
env_vars=('STANFORD_MODELS',), verbose=verbose)
but it doesn't solve the problem either. Please Help me in solving this issue.
I use Windows 8, python 3.5 and nltk 3.1

Update
The original answer was written for Stanford POS Tagger Version 3.6.0, Date 2015-12-09
There is a new Version (3.7.0, released 2016-10-31). Here's the code for the newer version:
from nltk.tag import StanfordPOSTagger
from nltk import word_tokenize
# Add the jar and model via their path (instead of setting environment variables):
jar = 'your_path/stanford-postagger-full-2016-10-31/stanford-postagger.jar'
model = 'your_path/stanford-postagger-full-2016-10-31/models/english-left3words-distsim.tagger'
pos_tagger = StanfordPOSTagger(model, jar, encoding='utf8')
text = pos_tagger.tag(word_tokenize("What's the airspeed of an unladen swallow ?"))
print(text)
Original answer
I had the same problem (but using OS X and PyCharm), finally got it to work. Here's what I've pieced together from the StanfordPOSTagger Documentation and alvas' work on the issue (big thanks!):
from nltk.internals import find_jars_within_path
from nltk.tag import StanfordPOSTagger
from nltk import word_tokenize
# Alternatively to setting the CLASSPATH add the jar and model via their path:
jar = '/Users/nischi/PycharmProjects/stanford-postagger-full-2015-12-09/stanford-postagger.jar'
model = '/Users/nischi/PycharmProjects/stanford-postagger-full-2015-12-09/models/english-left3words-distsim.tagger'
pos_tagger = StanfordPOSTagger(model, jar)
# Add other jars from Stanford directory
stanford_dir = pos_tagger._stanford_jar.rpartition('/')[0]
stanford_jars = find_jars_within_path(stanford_dir)
pos_tagger._stanford_jar = ':'.join(stanford_jars)
text = pos_tagger.tag(word_tokenize("What's the airspeed of an unladen swallow ?"))
print(text)
Hope this helps.

I use Jupyter Notebook with Pycharm.
I tried the Run Configuration in Pycharm to set env variable, but not work.
So I use os.environ to set it in the code:
import os
os.environ["CLASSPATH"] = "/yourPath/stanford-parser-full-2018-10-17:yourPath/stanford-postagger-full-2018-10-16:yourPath/stanford-ner-2018-10-16"
os.environ["STANFORD_MODELS"] = "yourPath/stanford-postagger-full-2018-10-16/models:yourPath/stanford-ner-2018-10-16/classifiers"
stanford_tagger = StanfordPOSTagger('english-bidirectional-distsim.tagger')
Hope it will help!

keyring module is not included while packaging with py2exe

I am making an app using python 2.7 on windows and keyring-3.2.1 . In my python code on eclipse, I used
import keyring
keyring.set_password("service","jsonkey",json_res)
json_res= keyring.get_password("service","jsonkey")
is working fine as I am storing json response in keyring. But, when I converted python code into exe by using py2exe, it shows import error keyring while making dist. Please suggest how to include keyring in py2exe.

The issue you're reporting is due to an environment that contains invalid modules, perhaps from an improper installation of one version of keyring over another. You will want to ensure that you've removed remnants of the older version of keyring. In particular, make sure there's no file called keyring\util\platform.* in your site-packages.
After doing that, however, you'll encounter another problem. Keyring loads its backend modules programmatically, so py2exe won't detect them.
To work around that, you'll want to add a 'packages' declaration to your py2exe options to specifically include the keyring.backends package. I invoked the following setup.py script with Python 2.7 to convert 'app.py' (which imports keyring) to an exe:
from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe
setup(
console=['app.py'],
options=dict(py2exe=dict(
packages='keyring.backends',
)),
)
The resulting app.exe will import and invoke keyring.

How to convert text to speech in python

I would like to now how to convert text to speech in python.
In .NET i used
Dim SAPI
Msg = 'Hi this is a test'
SAPI = CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")
SAPI.Speak(Msg)

You can achieve it by pyttsx module. it uses default MS speech recognition system.
import pyttsx
engine = pyttsx.init()
engine.say("Your Message")
engine.runAndWait()

I know its real late to answer here, But I thought I would post here since I have solution based on TTS conversion using SAPI in python, which was OP's original question.
This may be useful for anyone else looking for solution using SAPI in python.
from win32com.client import constants, Dispatch
Msg = "Hi this is a test"
speaker = Dispatch("SAPI.SpVoice") #Create SAPI SpVoice Object
speaker.Speak(Msg) #Process TTS
del speaker #Delete speaker object and free up memory

import pyttsx3
speaker=pyttsx3.init()
speaker.say("Your message")
speaker.runAndWait()

# pip install pywin32
# pip install pyttsx3
import pyttsx3
pyttsx3.speak('Hello Woeld')

You can do it by using the gTTS module. It converts the text to speech.
The second module you have to use is playsound to play the converted text.
from gtts import gTTS #pip install gtts
import playsound #pip install playsound
import os
my_aud = gTTS("hello how are you") #converts the text into speech
my_aud.save('demo.mp3') #save the file with .mp3 extension
playsound('demo.mp3') #to play it
os.remove('demo.mp3')

Here is Male's and Female's voices function created by myself.
Just define a file name and save it.
Now you can import it into another file and reuse it again and again.
pip install pyttsx3
import pyttsx3
def femaleVoice(text):
print("Program : "+text)
engine = pyttsx3.init()
voices = engine.getProperty('voices')
engine.setProperty('voice', voices[-1].id)
engine.say(text)
engine.runAndWait()
def maleVoice(text):
print("Program : "+text)
pyttsx3.speak(text)
femaleVoice("There we go.")#Text
maleVoice("There we go.")

If you want access to a ton of voices. We have over 500.
Here's a snippet
python
import apiaudio
import os
apiaudio.api_key = os.environ['APIKEY']
first_track = apiaudio.Orchestrator.create_audio(scriptText="Hello World my first audio track",
voice="Ryan",
soundTemplate="jakarta")
print(first_track)
You just need a FREE api key. Have a look at http://www.api.audio
