Error when following tutorial

[pombredanne]

I received a report of someone having issues with the docker image of scancode.io.

Here is the error:

• For this tutorial: https://scancodeio.readthedocs.io/en/latest tutorial_cli_end_to_end_scanning_to_dejacode.html

• I installed scancode.io following this document: https://scancodeio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html#installation

And I had this error:

CommandError: Error during inspect_packages execution:
'str' object has no attribute 'path'
Traceback:

To reproduce:

1. git clone https://github.com/aboutcode-org/scancode-workbench
2. docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)/scancode-workbench":/code ghcr.io/aboutcode-org/scancode.io:latest sh -c "run inspect_packages:StaticResolver /code" > results.json
3. eventually this fails:

Current toolkit is 32.2.1 per

scancode.io/setup.cfg

Line 75 in 53700eb

scancode-toolkit[packages]==32.2.1

We likely have a fix with aboutcode-org/scancode-toolkit#3857 and we likely just need to update SCTK and release SCIO

We likely have a fix with aboutcode-org/scancode-toolkit#3857 and we likely just need to update SCTK and release SCIO

This seems to be fixed by the above mentioned PR adding a bunch of npm improvements. Will push a release of SCTK and SCIO soon
