Dear all,
I am trying to import an Eyelink 1000 device into Psychopy. I am using Psychopy 3.0.0 and a combination of pylink (2.7) and pygaze to import the device. The error message I can’t seem to figure out is that Python suggests that pylink does not have an attribute called ''EyeLinkCustomDisplay".
Below is the error message, followed by some excerpts from the code and some comments. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Perhaps noteworthy is that I ran the identical script in a WinPython standalone package which include pylink and pygaze (http://www.pygaze.org/downloads/), and there the experiment works without any issues.
Error message in terminal:
"Traceback (most recent call last):

tracker = EyeTracker(disp)

custom_display = pylink.EyeLinkCustomDisplay
AttributeError: module ‘pylink’ has no attribute ‘EyeLinkCustomDisplay’
In experiment.py I am trying to create the tracker :
from pygaze.display import Display
from pygaze.screen import Screen
from pygaze.eyetracker import EyeTracker
import pygaze.libtime as timer
#Initialise the Display and a Screen.
disp = Display()
scr = Screen()
#Show a waiting message.
scr.draw_text(“Preparing experiment…”, fontsize=20)
disp.fill(scr)
disp.show()
#Open a connection to the eye tracker.
tracker = EyeTracker(disp)
eyetracker.py then needs additional information from libeyelink
# EyeLink
if trackertype == u'eyelink':
# import libraries
**from pygaze._eyetracker.libeyelink import libeyelink**
# morph class
self.__class__ = libeyelink
# initialize
self.__class__.__init__(self, display, **args)
and libeyelink.py wants to import EyelinkGraphics:
from pygaze import settings
from pygaze.libtime import clock
import pygaze
from pygaze.screen import Screen
from pygaze.mouse import Mouse
from pygaze.keyboard import Keyboard
from pygaze.sound import Sound
from pygaze._eyetracker.eyelinkgraphics import EyelinkGraphics
In eyelinkgraphics.py, there is in fact a class called EyelinkGraphics with an EyeLinkCustomDisplay module. Below, I copy-pasted line 44 and onwards:
custom_display = pylink.EyeLinkCustomDisplay
if settings.DISPTYPE == ‘pygame’:
import pygame
elif settings.DISPTYPE == ‘psychopy’:

import pygame
class EyelinkGraphics(custom_display):
"""
Implements the EyeLink graphics that are shown on the experimental PC, such

the drawing operations, and little to no of the logic behind the set-up,
which is implemented in PyLink.
