Detecting whether bracket highlight is installed no longer works

[canoeberry]

I have used this mechanism for years to detect that bracket highlight is installed:

def bracket_highlighter_installed():
    global is_bracket_highlighter_installed
    if is_bracket_highlighter_installed is None:
        try:
            import BracketHighlighter.bh_core as bh_core
        except ImportError as e:
            is_bracket_highlighter_installed = False
        else:
            is_bracket_highlighter_installed = True
    print("Installed", is_bracket_highlighter_installed)
    print("Path", sys.path)

    return is_bracket_highlighter_installed

It no longer works. It prints an error

No module named 'BracketHighlighter'

I can run “import BracketHighlighter” in the python console window and it works just fine.

Has something changed?

BracketHighlighter runs on python 3.8 on ST4.

You descriptions indicate your checker plugin runs on python 3.3 still and thus can’t see BH anymore.

Is there something I need to do to run my plugin on 3.8?

[deathaxe]

To opt-in to python 3.8 packages need to contain a .python-version file at root-level with 3.8 content.

Worked. Much obliged!
