python toolbox from Pro to Portal

LemvigKommune1 — Fri, 10 Dec 2021 19:55:35 GMT

I'm starting to develop som geoprocessing tools in ArcGIS Pro using some third party python modules, but even with the simpliest of tools it fails to run from Portal

Sample code

import arcpy
import openpyxl

class Toolbox(object):
    def __init__(self):
        """Define the toolbox (the name of the toolbox is the name of the
        .pyt file)."""
        self.label = "Toolbox"
        self.alias = ""

        # List of tool classes associated with this toolbox
        self.tools = [Tool]

class Tool(object):
    def __init__(self):
        """Define the tool (tool name is the name of the class)."""
        self.label = "Tool"
        self.description = ""
        self.canRunInBackground = False

    def getParameterInfo(self):
        """Define parameter definitions"""
        param0 = arcpy.Parameter(
            displayName="Input Features",
            name="in_features",
            datatype="GPString",
            parameterType="Required",
            direction="Input")

        param0.filter.type = "ValueList"
        param0.filter.list = ['test1','test2']

        param1 = arcpy.Parameter(
            displayName="Label",
            name = "LabelTest",
            datatype="GPString",
            parameterType="Optional",
            direction="Input"
        )
        params = [param0, param1]
        return params

    def isLicensed(self):
        """Set whether tool is licensed to execute."""
        return True

    def updateParameters(self, parameters):
        """Modify the values and properties of parameters before internal
        validation is performed.  This method is called whenever a parameter
        has been changed."""
        parameters[1].value = parameters[0].value
        return

    def updateMessages(self, parameters):
        """Modify the messages created by internal validation for each tool
        parameter.  This method is called after internal validation."""
        return

    def execute(self, parameters, messages):
        """The source code of the tool."""
        returnVal = parameters[0].value + ' TEST ' + parameters[1].value
        arcpy.AddWarning(returnVal)
        return

If I run this from Pro theres no problem and I can publish it as a webtool, no problem

But when I want to run it from portal i fails, unless I publis it without the import openpyxl line

So how do I get portal to use third party python modules like openpyxl ?

what ever environment portal runs from doesn't have that module installed

I know that, but how do I install those modules on the server, and witch server ?

My configuration is

Server1 - portal
Server2 - arcgis server as Federated server
Server3 - datastore

Now that I'm developing in Python 3.x I would like for the server to run Python 3.x so I don't have any trouble with unicode characters ect.

You may want to Move your question‌ to Python‌ since the ArcGIS API for Python is actually a different environment, which uses Jupyter Notebook ( ArcGIS API for Python | ArcGIS for Developers )

re: getting installed on the Server....have you tried installing Pro on the server? I would think that would get Python 3 the environment setup with the correct paths, etc., but Dan is much more knowledgeable about that than I am, so I'll defer to him/others.
