Error in calling a Python script from a Basic function

I am new in Python and Basic. I am trying to replicate the IMPORTHTML function from Google Sheets in LibreOffice (LO) Calc. In a nutshell, I want to create a GetHtmTable( Url, Table Index) Basic function in Calc which will call a Python script to do the heavy work.
So based on Villeroy's great example, I implemented in LO 5.1.6.2. the Basic SOUNDEX function which calls the Python script sheetFunctions.py to get familiar with the process. My environment is Linux Mint 18, I use Python 3, I imported all kind of libraries such as Uno, PIP etc.. I use PycharmProjects as a Python editor.
I see clearly under the LO Calc menu tools->macro->organize macros->python the sheetFunctions.py Python script, which indeed is in the folder /usr/lib/libreoffice/share/Scripts/python.
Whenever, I run the SOUNDEX Basic function I see the following error message:
BASIC runtime error. An exception occurred Type:
com.sun.star.script.provider.ScriptFrameworkErrorException Message:
: an
error occurred during file opening
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/pythonscript.py:429 in function
getModuleByUrl() [lastRead = self.sfa.getDateTimeModified( url )]
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/pythonscript.py:993 in function
getScript() [mod = self.provCtx.getModuleByUrl( fileUri )]
I tried to debug the SOUNDEX basic function and found out the blocking point is when the program runs getScript("vnd.sun.star.script:sheetFunctions.py$soundex?language=Python&location=user").
I've been trying for days now to overcome this error, unsuccessfully I must confess.
I wonder if I need to bring some extra extensions in the Basic environment or a missing add-in in the Linux/Python one?
I changed the location=user by location=document and got stuck again. I added recently libreoffice-script-provider-python thanks to the command sudo apt-get install libreoffice-script-provider-python but this did not help. I also embedded in the Calc document the Python script but same this did not solve the issue.

The location name does not match. The standard place for self-written scripts is under the user directory. This is location=user, for example ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/Scripts/python.
Then there is location=share, which refers to the path in your question. These parameters are described under Python Script in the URI Specification.
See also my answer to this question. Be sure to try the APSO extension if you haven't yet. Especially, APSO helps when using location=document, because embedding requires several steps including editing manifest.xml.

Change python2 library pybloomfilter to python3

I want to use pybloomfilter package: https://github.com/axiak/pybloomfiltermmap,
I managed to install it under python3, but it seems the saved file does not have the original information (under python2, this won't happen), I looked into source code and it seems there is nothing specific to python2, so I am totally lost on how to make this library compatible with python3.
EDIT1:
by "not have the original information", I mean, when I add some string into the filter, then I end the program, the next time, I use open to load the filter, the filter is clear, it does not remember the added strings.

pybloomfiltermmap3 is a Python 3 fork of pybloomfiltermmap by Michael Axiak (#axiak).
class pybloomfilter.BloomFilter(capacity : int, error_rate : float[,
filename=None : string ][, perm=0755 ])
Install:
Please have Cython installed. Please note that this version is for Python 3. In case you are using Python 2, please see
https://github.com/axiak/pybloomfiltermmap.
To install:
$ pip install cython
$ pip install pybloomfiltermmap3
to build and install the module.
And there is a instance method to sync the file:
BloomFilter.sync()
Forces a sync() call on the underlying mmap file object.
Use this if you are about to copy the file and you want to be Sure (TM)
you got everything correctly.

Thrift error while generating python client file

I'm new to Hbase and I would like to comunicate with it throught a python API which works with Thrift. I've followed this tutorial in order to install it properly on my machine, everything seemed to worked fine then I generated a .thrift file with the following command:
wget http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hbase/trunk/hbase-thrift/src/main/resources/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/thrift/Hbase.thrift\?view\=markup
-O hbase.thrift
Then I tried to generate my client like it's showed here but i get the following error message:
[ERROR:/home/tests/hbase/hbase.thrift:12] (last token was '<')
syntax error
[FAILURE:/home/tests/hbase/hbase.thrift:12] Parser error during include pass.
I tried to lookup on internet what was the cause of this error and found this paper, I tried to lookup in thriftl.ll to see if I could correct the error but I found that the correction was already present in the file.
What can I do more in order to make this work ?
Thank you !
EDIT:
I'm using thrift 0.9.0

Using a fairly recent Thrift version and more importantly the proper URL I was able to generate Python sources without errors.
Please check if your download is actually a Thrift file or if it is a HTML source. The error message sounds very much like that, since HTML pages typically start with an <, and the right Thrift file contains the first < at line 110 (within list<Mutation>), not around line 12.
PS: Why are you using such an old version? 0.9.1 was released a year ago and 0.9.2 is actually in the process of being released.
PPS: Actually, the referenced ticket THRIFT-1274 seems not have much to do with it. But maybe I'm overlooking something.

Bad Marshal error -- runsnake

I ran cProfile on a python 3 script, worked nicely, then tried to visualize it using runsnake. Howvever, I got an empty screen and the error 'bad marshal data'.
I removed .pyc file but that did not work either.
The code I used to install runsnake was:
sudo apt-get install python-profiler python-wxgtk2.8 python-setuptoolD
sudo easy-install installSquareMap RunSnakeRun
I am using UBUNTU.
Many thanks.
note: I should add I installed everything while py3k was activated

TL;DR: This error occurs when profiling in Python 2.x and viewing the profile in Python 3.x or vice versa.
I had the same problem. As far as I can tell, the RunSnakeRun package has not been ported to Python3. At least, I could pip it to python2 but not to python3 (SyntaxError). Further, I think the output format of cProfile is not compatible between python 2/3. I did not take the time to find an definitive confirmation of this, but in the doc of cProfile class pstats.Stats(*filenames, stream=sys.stdout), they do say "The file selected by the above constructor must have been created by the corresponding version of profile or cProfile. To be specific, there is no file compatibility guaranteed with future versions of this profiler, and there is no compatibility with files produced by other profilers.". This seems to be the origin of your problem. For e.g., I made a profile output from python3
import cProfile
cProfile.run('some code to profile', 'restats')
and tried to open it in RunSnakeRun and got the same marhsal error you got. Further, if I do
import pstats
p = pstats.Stats('restats')
p.strip_dirs().sort_stats(-1).print_stats()
in python3, it works like a charm. If I do it in python2, it gives the marshal error. Now, RunSnakeRun is executed in python2 (unless you found some way to make it run in python3). So, my guess is that you have performed your profiling in python3 and are using tools relying on python2 to analyze them, which tools are expecting the output to be compatible with python2.
The RunSnakeRun project seems to be inactive for a while now (copyright on the home page is 2005-2011) and there is no indication that it will be ported to python3.... Maybe considering alternative visualization tool might be the best way to go for you if you want to develop in Python3. pyprof2calltree in combination with KCachegrind worked fine for me in Linux. It can provide a similar visual view of the profiling output as you would get from RunSnakeRun.

Also ran into the same problem and I think there's no (good) way to use runsnake for Python3 (as it already was mentioned in the previous answer). However, SnakeViz might help. It's a relatively intuitive graphical overview of profiling data that, like runsnake, builds on top of profile outputs. Nice bonus: works also for Jupyter notebooks!

pyrouge: 'pyrouge_set_rouge_path' is not recognized as an internal or external command

I have Windows 7 and use Python 2.7. I recently installed ROUGE (Recall-Oriented Understudy for Gisting Evaluation) in order to evaluate summaries that I have.
Unfortunately, my summaries are in .txt format, and wouldn't work with ROUGE. I therefore, installed pyrouge from pypi.
In the same website above, they have installation steps. I followed the first step, which was to use pip install. The next step says:
"Assuming a working ROUGE-1.5.5. installation, tell pyrouge the ROUGE path with this command:
pyrouge_set_rouge_path /absolute/path/to/ROUGE-1.5.5/directory"
I try that line in the command prompt:
pyrouge_set_rouge_path C:\rouge
Yet I keep getting this error:
'pyrouge_set_rouge_path' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Try this:
set pyrouge_set_rouge_path=C:\rouge

Although it is an old questions, there are probably still people looking for the answer.
"Assuming a working ROUGE-1.5.5. installation" does not correspond to your pyrouge installation. It references to the following. (Maybe you got that right immediately, I did not)
https://github.com/andersjo/pyrouge/tree/master/tools/ROUGE-1.5.5
pyrouge_set_rouge_path is a script, not a variable you have to set.
The script is located at Python_PATH\Scripts.
Hence try something like:
python Python_PATH\Scripts\pyrouge_set_rouge_path C:\rouge
