Please support Python 3.14

[YanYLou]

Background

As the Python 3.14 became more and more popular, it is significant to support 3.12+ which abandoned imp.
Many people have already found this. I'm adding my voice to emphasize its importance.

What went wrong?

The Error says,

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<frozen runpy>", line 198, in _run_module_as_main
  File "<frozen runpy>", line 88, in _run_code
  File "C:\Users\RoseGold\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python314\Scripts\fuck.exe\__main__.py", line 2, in <module>
    from thefuck.entrypoints.not_configured import main
  File "C:\Users\RoseGold\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python314\Lib\site-packages\thefuck\entrypoints\not_configured.py", line 13, in <module>

    from imp import load_source
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'imp'

version:
Python 3.14.2
thefuck 3.32

The fix seems straightforward

Well, I have to acknowledge I don't know much about this. But AI told me that:
The imp module is deprecated and removed. Switching to importlib (e.g., importlib.machinery.SourceFileLoader) should resolve this.

It seems no one will fix it anymore...
Anyway, let's wait......

new pythonlike Python 3.12 removed the imp module, but the source code of thefuck 3.32 still uses 'from imp import load_source'.You just need to replace imp.load_source with the equivalent implementation in importlib.util.

[guguzea]

在conf.py的最上面加上:try:
from importlib.util import spec_from_file_location, module_from_spec
except ImportError:
from imp import load_source
将71行的settings = load_source(
'settings', text_type(self.user_dir.joinpath('settings.py')))替换为:settings_path = self.user_dir.joinpath('settings.py')
try:
spec = spec_from_file_location('settings', text_type(settings_path))
settings = module_from_spec(spec)
spec.loader.exec_module(settings)
except Exception:
settings = None
将81行的if hasattr(settings, key)}替换为:if settings is not None and hasattr(settings, key)};在types.py的最上面加上:try:
from importlib.util import spec_from_file_location, module_from_spec
except ImportError:
from imp import load_source
将147行的rule_module = load_source(name, str(path))替换为spec = spec_from_file_location(name, str(path))
rule_module = module_from_spec(spec)
spec.loader.exec_module(rule_module)
你也可以下载这两个文件进行覆盖:我的环境是3.12,应该可以正确运行

Mind adding a translation? Also you can open a pull request...that way somebody with permission can just accept the changes w/o having to manually copy them over.

[guguzea]

OK,But I saw that someone had proposed changes in 2025, but her changes have never been merged.

[guguzea]

At the top of conf.py, add:

try:
    from importlib.util import spec_from_file_location, module_from_spec
except ImportError:
    from imp import load_source

Replace line 71:

settings = load_source('settings', text_type(self.user_dir.joinpath('settings.py')))

with:

settings_path = self.user_dir.joinpath('settings.py')
try:
    spec = spec_from_file_location('settings', text_type(settings_path))
    settings = module_from_spec(spec)
    spec.loader.exec_module(settings)
except Exception:
    settings = None

Replace line 81:

if hasattr(settings, key)

with:

if settings is None and hasattr(settings, key)

At the top of types.py, add:

try:
    from importlib.util import spec_from_file_location, module_from_spec
except ImportError:
    from imp import load_source

Replace line 147:

rule_module = load_source(name, str(path))

with:

spec = spec_from_file_location(name, str(path))
rule_module = module_from_spec(spec)
spec.loader.exec_module(rule_module)

You can also download these two files to overwrite them: My environment is 3.12, it should run correctly.

yeah, but ai-fix doesn't have the inherent funny-ness of cussing at your terminal. that's the whole point of thefuck
