On GitHub actions, "pip install playsound" failed with the "OSError: could not get source code" error

I am running Pylint on the GitHub actions. Before it runs, it installs the module playsound during the dependencies installation.

The checks all failed with Python 3.8, 3.9, and 3.10.

It seems to fail with the following error:

OSError: could not get source code

Do you have any idea to fix it?

What I have tried so far is:

>>> pip uninstall wheel
>>> pip install playsound
>>> pip install wheel

This thread kindly suggested this procedure, but did not work for me.

@Azeem, Thanks for your suggestions! Let me summarize the details of what I have tried so far.

  • requirements.txt
playsound==1.3.0
  • .github/workflows/pylint.yml
name: Pylint

on: [push]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    strategy:
      matrix:
        python-version: ["3.8", "3.9", "3.10"]
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v3
    - name: Set up Python ${{ matrix.python-version }}
      uses: actions/setup-python@v3
      with:
        python-version: ${{ matrix.python-version }}
    - name: Install dependencies
      run: |
        python -m pip install --upgrade pip
        pip install -r requirements.txt
        pip install pylint
    - name: Analysing the code with pylint
      run: |
        pylint $(git ls-files '*.py')

The installation with this requirements.txt file works fine in the local environment with Python 3.10.9.

$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Solution

  • According to this thread, installing/upgrading wheel worked.

    I tried the same with your use case and it worked fine.

    Here's the sample workflow that I used:

    name: python_playsound_test

on: workflow_dispatch

jobs:
  ci:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    strategy:
      matrix:
        python-version: ["3.8", "3.9", "3.10"]

    steps:
    - name: Set up Python ${{ matrix.python-version }}
      uses: actions/setup-python@v3
      with:
        python-version: ${{ matrix.python-version }}

    - name: Install dependencies
      run: |
        mkdir test && cd test
        echo 'playsound==1.3.0' > requirements.txt

        python --version
        pip --version

        python -m pip install --upgrade pip
        pip install --upgrade wheel
        pip install -r requirements.txt

    Here's the screenshot where it passed for the matrix:
