np.bool versus bool

[Erlebacher]

To the Dataiku developers, 

Dataiku appears to use `np.bool` or `numpy.bool` in its codebase. This has been deprecated since Python 2.4 or so. I strongly recommend replacing these by `bool` to remove many warning errors that pollute the detailed job diagnostics. If there is a way to turn these warnings off, could you please share them?  Thanks!   Gordon.

Hi @Erlebacher 

If you are seeing this error, it can be resolved by upgrading DSS to 11.4.2+ 
or including numpy<=1.23.5 in your list of requirements. 

Thanks,

Thanks. I am using Dataiku version 11.4.3. So I'll change the numpy version. Still, my question stands: why doesn't Dataiku update its codebase to resolve deprecated constructs? At some point, you'll have to. Thanks.

Hello,

As of version 12.2.3, we've removed this deprecated usage from our codebase. You may still get the warning since it's in use in some common dependencies like pandas or scikit-optimize, meaning we still don't recommend using numpy>=1.24 in general.

Best regards,
Nicolas
