Can't use `typing` module

[akleemans]

I have a Python script which runs fine when using Python 3.8.5:

from typing import Tuple

def combine(a: int, b: int) -> Tuple[int, int]:
    return (a, b)

print('Tuple from 1 and 2:', combine(1, 2))

When running codon run test.py (0.15.1), I get an error: test.py:1:6-12: error: no module named 'typing'. If I remove the first line it works just fine.

Is it not possible to import and use the typing module? I want my script to be both executable by codon and Python itself.

Hi @akleemans

We'll add a mock for this module shortly. In general, all typing information is already imported within the Codon's toplevel namespace (e.g., Tuple is accessible without any imports).
