No Module Named ‘noxconfig’

The error, ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'noxconfig', often appears on systems such as Fedora, where the current path may not be included in the PYTHONPATH. This issue is elaborated upon at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/PythonSafePath. Accordingly, it may be necessary to correctly set the PYTHONPATH before initiating nox, as our nox tasks anticipate the noxconfig module to be located within the python path.

There are several methods to configure your shell:

1. For a one-time setup: PYTHONPATH=`pwd` nox -s task

2. For a general setup: export PYTHONPATH=`pwd`

3. Alternatively, tools like direnv can be used.

Format Still Fails After Running project:fix

If running the following sequence of commands results in project:format failing with an error during the execution of isort:

1. Run project:fix

2. Run project:format

It is very likely that you did not configure isort and/or black appropriately in your pyproject.toml file.

Ensure isort is configured with compatibility for black:

[tool.isort]
profile = "black"
force_grid_wrap = 2

Additionally, your black configuration should look similar to this:

[tool.black]
line-length = 88
verbose = false
include = "\\.pyi?$"
