AttributeError: 'generator' object has no attribute 'next'

Question

Using python 3.6, I import image_preloader from tflearn.data_utils

I then write

X, Y = image_preloader("\\all\\train", image_shape=(128, 128), mode='folder', categorical_labels=True, normalize=True)

There are folders with labels inside the train folder. Inside those labeled folders are images.

I get this error:

    C:\Users\Daman\.conda\envs\TF\python.exe 
    "C:/Users/Daman/PycharmProjects/Coin Classification/main.py"
    hdf5 is not supported on this machine (please install/reinstall h5py for

        classes = sorted(os.walk(directory).next()[1])
    AttributeError: 'generator' object has no attribute 'next'

    During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "C:/Users/Daman/PycharmProjects/Coin Classification/main.py", line 
    3, in <module>

    packages\tflearn\data_utils.py", line 732, in directory_to_samples
         classes = sorted(os.walk(directory).__next__()[1])
    StopIteration

How can I resolve this error?

Answer 1

I was dealing with the same problem, g.next() is supported by python 2, now you can use next(g) python 3
