What is this error in Python tabula module?

Question

I keep getting this error. I am working on -

Mac Sierra 10.8

Python 3.6.2

tabula 1.0.5

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/Sam/Desktop/mitch test/test.py", line 22, in <module>
    tabula.convert_into(root.fileName, "_ExportedPDF-" + date_time + ".csv", output_format="csv", pages="all")
AttributeError: module 'tabula' has no attribute 'convert_into'

This is my code that is giving me an error.

tabula.convert_into(root.fileName, "_ExportedPDF-" + date_time + ".csv", output_format="csv", pages="all")

---

UPDATE:

When I try to do from tabula import wrapper I get th error:

ImportError: cannot import name 'wrapper'

---

UPDATE:

Fixed comment as per @L. Alvarez

Getting following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/Sam/Desktop/mitch test/test.py", line 22, in <module>
    tabula.convert_into(root.fileName, "_ExportedPDF-" + date_time + ".csv", output_format="csv", pages="all")

Answer 1

I suspect you did pip install tabula, which installed a tabula library that has a version 1.0.5. Here's the github repo. It does not have a convert_into function

But you actually meant to install this tabula, whose last version is 0.9.0

You should pip uninstall tabula and pip3 install tabula-py

Answer 2

CalledProcessError: Command '['java', '-jar', '/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tabula/tabula-1.0.1-jar-with-dependencies.jar', '--pages', '1', '--guess',]' returned non-zero exit status 1

If you are getting above error then it means you have to install java-jre and java-jdk

sudo apt-get install default-jre

sudo apt-get install default-jdk

you can follow the steps here if the above installation dosent work https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-java-with-apt-get-on-ubuntu-16-04
