The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Library version:
postman2robot==0.0.1
Python: 3.7.5

Can you please help me to overcome this issue?

Thanks,

The CLI uses Jinja templates and requires one template to be available in the expected path.

OSError: [Errno 0] Error: 'src\assets\library_template.py'

You can copy over the default template in this folder src\assets\library_template.py.

I have to admit this is not ideal. The default template in this repo should be used if no template does not exist. If you find this cli useful and want to contribute, please submit a PR 😄 .

Hi,

Since i am new to jinja can you please provide any link to download this kind of template. I tried once basic template which was put in src/assets and renamed as library_template.py but couldnt fix the issue.

Hey @aryalakshmi ! I've got the same problem as you. I've followed @xNok comment above and it worked!
What you should do is follow the same structure that is present in the repo. This way, you need to add a file named library_template.py, which can be found here, into this a path scheme that follows:

|- src
  |- asserts
     |- library_template.py

The src path can be found in your own error message, which might be C:\Python3\lib\site-packages\postman2robot-0.0.1-py3.7.egg\src. In my case, I needed to create the asserts directory by my own (watch out for typos haha).
After that, you just need to run as indicated in the documentation. I hope it work for you!!
