Bash failing, no subprocess.run() error

[ChristoBeers]

I’m having trouble getting Bash to work in the claude code challenge step #0Q5, on python.

First I tried the command suggested in the instructions:

result = subprocess.run(command, capture_output=True, text=True)

but got an error: module ‘asyncio.subprocess’ has no attribute ‘run’.

Googling suggested this is a python 3.7 vs <=3.6 issue?

So to be 3.6-compatible, I went with loop=asyncio.get_event_loop(), but got this error: There is no current event loop in thread ‘MainThread’.

Then I updated to new_event_loop(), but codecrafters has been “running tests” for 10-15 minutes now… and I think it may be frozen and I’m not sure how to force-close?

Thanks!

Hey @ChristoBeers, could you upload your code to GitHub and share the link? It will be much easier to debug if I can run it directly.

Thanks Andy, my trial period ended so I’m pivoting to build my actual project. It was fun working on the challenge too bad I didnt get to finish it.

@ChristoBeers Would you mind clarifying what you mean by “trial period”? The Claude Code challenge is currently still in beta, so it’s available to try for free.
