python_script not allowed to import websocket

[jolly geode]

My python script is suddendly unable to run due to the impossibility of importing websocket:
Failed to perform the action python_script.hyperion_add_remote_source. Error executing script (ImportError): Not allowed to import websocket

It is not possible to use Python imports with this integration. If you want to do more advanced scripts, you can take a look at AppDaemon or pyscript

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/python_script/

You should look into PyScript if you want something more advanced

But it worked 'till a couple of weeks ago 🫠

"by accident", perhaps

[jolly geode]

Maybe.
I'll add PyScript to my to do list then, thanks!

I was reading a bit of documentation about the implementation of Websocket APIs in Home Assistant when i stumbled on this chinese doc page where they mentions:

Python - CLI client using asyncws
(NB: in the english version this reference seems to be missing)

So I tried to rewrite my script using asyncio and asyncws instead of websocket, but it doesn't seems that the libraries are shipped with HA anymore:

stdout: ""
stderr: |-
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/config/python_scripts/hyperion_add_remote_source.py", line 3, in <module>
      import asyncws
  ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'asyncws'
returncode: 1

Any other suggestions before I'll add another integration to my collection?

websockets has never been able to import into python scripts. If your script worked, then that script somehow found a loophole.

suffice to say, use pyscript, you won't have any options with python_scripts unless you look for another loophole (assuming it existed in the first place)

[jolly geode]

Is there any other route, even if using other languages? The script is quite simple, I can manage to port it over.

pyscript

or write an integration

or appdaemon
