Unable to access riid.gadras module

[tannerdalen]

Now that GADRAS-DRF 19.4.0 has 1DM capabilities, I am attempting to use PyRIID to interface with the GADRAS-DRF and generate spectra. I have done so successfully before, provided minor adjustments to riid.gadras.api, but new issues have occurred.

When running the following code block (a small portion of a larger script) in a fresh kernel, the following error is raised:

from riid.gadras.api import GADRAS_API_SEEMINGLY_AVAILABLE
if not GADRAS_API_SEEMINGLY_AVAILABLE:`
    raise Exception("GADRAS-DRF API unavailable. Did something change?")

GADRAS_API = riid.gadras.api.get_gadras_api()
...

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

When using the latest PyRIID version on PyPI, simply running the above code again, having made no changes, the script runs as expected with no errors. Odd!

When using the latest PyRIID version on GitHub, running the above code throws another error:

  File ...\path\to\script.py:124
    GADRAS_API = riid.gadras.api.get_gadras_api()

AttributeError: module 'riid' has no attribute 'gadras''

The BitMiracle error is probably another issue altogether. Regardless, how should one go about accessing the riid.gadras module with the latest PyRIID version on GitHub assuming that directly accessing it still remains an appropriate use case?
