ImportError: cannot import name 'Iterable' from 'collections' about hmni

[Christopher-Thornton]

I believe this issue is related to your Python version (>3.9)

The error is generated from abydos package; they need to modify their imports like below:

try:
    # Python <= 3.9
    from collections import Iterable
except ImportError:
    # Python > 3.9
    from collections.abc import Iterable

If the maintainer of abydos doesn't fix in the coming weeks, I'll work on patching it.

I recently ran into this issue as well with Python 3.10.6

Any updates?

A solution if you don't want to change package files is to create alias before importing hmni

import collections.abc
collections.Iterable = collections.abc.Iterable
import hmni

For a quick-fix make the necessary modifications in the abydos package files to import Iterable class.

from collections import Iterable => from collections.abc import Iterable

The modifications have to be made in the following files:

1. /usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/abydos/tokenizer/_q_grams.py
2. /usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/abydos/tokenizer/_q_skipgrams.py
3. /usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/abydos/distance/_synoname.py
