why can't i import osmnx into google colab today?

Question

good afternoon, I've been working with osmnx in Google Colab for a while, and since this morning it doesn't work, when I go to import the library once installed it gives me the following error

here the complete process followed

!apt install gdal-bin python-gdal python3-gdal --quiet
!apt install python3-rtree --quiet
!pip install git+git://github.com/geopandas/geopandas.git --quiet
!pip install descartes --quiet


!pip install pysal --quiet
!pip install splot --quiet

import pandas as pd
import geopandas as gpd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

import pysal
from pysal.lib  import weights
from pysal.explore import  esda
from esda.moran import Moran, Moran_Local

import splot
from splot.esda import moran_scatterplot, plot_moran, lisa_cluster

!pip install osmnx

import osmnx

and that's when it gives me the following error:

ImportError: cannot import name 'TopologicalError' from 'shapely.geos' (/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/shapely/geos.py)

NOTE: If your import is failing due to a missing package, you can manually install dependencies using either !pip or !apt.

To view examples of installing some common dependencies, click the "Open Examples" button below.

Anyone knows how can I Solve it,

Thanks a lot.

What version of shapely is in your environment? OSMnx 1.1.1 is really old and incompatible with shapely 2.0. You'll probably have to pin shapely<2.0. — gboeing, Dec 20 '22 at 15:41
Thank you very much for your responses, I have been working with these versions for a few months and today is the first day that it does not allow me to import Tried with Shapely 1.7 also with osmnx 1.2.3 and it doesn't work either. Thanks greetings. — Santiago David Lopez Canovas, Dec 20 '22 at 17:38
OSMnx 1.1.1 worked with Shapely 1.7.1 and there's no reason it shouldn't continue to today, as long as all the dependencies are working. It's been over a year since then, so I can't speak to it beyond that. But if you look here you can see the expected dependency versions for OSMnx 1.1.1: https://github.com/gboeing/osmnx/blob/v1.1.1/requirements.txt — gboeing, Dec 20 '22 at 22:23
Thank you very much for the answer, I don't know what happens because I have been working with the same Colab notebook, with those versions and suddenly it doesn't work, the error happens when importing the library, it installs fine, but I can't import it. All the versions I install meet the requirements. — Santiago David Lopez Canovas, Dec 21 '22 at 08:26
Please edit your question to provide the full error traceback you're now receiving. Also provide the installed version numbers of each OSMnx dependency. — gboeing, Dec 21 '22 at 15:53
Thank you very much for trying to help me, I do this like this, before it worked for me, now it doesn't, I'm not an expert in python, and I can't give you more information. — Santiago David Lopez Canovas, Dec 22 '22 at 07:50
don't worry, I really appreciate your help, with Jupyter Notebook it works fine for me. Thanks. — Santiago David Lopez Canovas, Dec 22 '22 at 08:06

You must install compatible versions of OSMnx's dependencies or the installation will not work properly.

OSMnx >= 1.3 works with Shapely >= 2.0, see here.
OSMnx < 1.3 works with Shapely < 2.0, see here.

Recreate your environment (and optionally explicitly specify osmnx=1.3.*) and it'll work. Make sure you follow the documented installation instructions and honor the dependency versions specified in OSMnx's requirements.txt file. See also.

I had the same error and rightly or wrongly I changed the import for the file osmnx/geometries.py

The import is trying to import the error class TopologicalError

this doesn't exist in shapely.geos it exists in shapely.errors so if you change the import for the file from

from shapely.geos import TopologicalError

To

from shapely.errors import TopologicalError

This will only happen if you are not following the OSMnx requirements.txt pinned dependency versions. – gboeing Jan 01 '23 at 03:42

why can't i import osmnx into google colab today?
