Fixes #7980.

Description

resolve_writer raised a generic OptionalImportError (No ImageWriter backend found for png.) when no registered writer backend was available for the given extension, without telling users which optional dependency to install. This PR makes the error actionable, following the approach suggested in the review of #8240:

  • OptionalImportError now accepts and records the name of the missing package via the new pkg_name argument (defaults to None).
  • require_pkg passes the missing package name to OptionalImportError.
  • resolve_writer collects the packages of the unavailable candidate writers and appends installation hints to the error message, translating the PIL import name to the installable pillow distribution. The generic message is kept when package details are unavailable, so custom writers are unaffected.

New messages, for example:

No ImageWriter backend found for png. Please install the missing package(s): pillow (e.g. `pip install pillow`).
No ImageWriter backend found for nrrd. Please install the missing package(s): itk or nibabel (e.g. `pip install itk` or `pip install nibabel`).

This is a non-breaking, error-message-only enhancement. I am aware of the other open PRs for #7980 (#8240, #8625, #8761, #8989) and am happy to close this in favour of another approach if maintainers prefer.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

OptionalImportError now stores an optional package name. require_pkg supplies package names and version constraints when it raises the exception. If writer resolution finds no available backend, its error can include installation commands for reported packages. The PIL import name maps to pillow. Tests cover this metadata and writer-resolution behavior.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~12 minutes

Severity of issue fixed: Low

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 5edd7

The change only improves error messages for missing writer dependencies. Two small edge cases remain: constructing the error with the standard ImportError keywords now fails, and hints can be misleading for custom version checkers. It is safe to merge with a follow-up.

Give version-mismatch errors an upgrade hint.

When require_pkg rejects an installed package because its version does not match, Line 135 still recommends pip install without a version constraint. That command may leave the incompatible version in place. Preserve the failure reason and suggest an upgrade or the required version for this case.

Addressed the CodeRabbit feedback: require_pkg now distinguishes an installed package with an incompatible version from a genuinely missing one, so the installation hint carries the version constraint (e.g. pip install torch>=10000 / torch==10000 for exact_version) instead of an unconstrained pip install that would be a no-op. Covered by the updated tests in tests/utils/test_require_pkg.py.

489-494: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Version constraint is lost for version mismatches on optional imports with a truthy check.

optional_import(pkg_name)[1] runs a second import to detect an installed package. That is acceptable. The >= constraint for a custom version_checker is a guess, though. Any checker other than exact_version gets >=, even if its semantics differ. The result is a possibly wrong hint. It is not a crash.

Add a comment that states this assumption. Also, the new block lacks a docstring update for pkg_name on OptionalImportError raised by require_pkg. The path instruction requires Google-style docstrings with a Raises section. The require_pkg docstring has no Raises section.

Addressed the remaining CodeRabbit nitpick as well: require_pkg now has a Google-style Raises section documenting the OptionalImportError behaviour and the pkg_name constraint hint, and the constraint-selection code carries a comment stating the >= assumption for checkers other than exact_version. Docstring/comment-only change, no behavioural difference.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Do not cache an empty writer result.

When resolve_writer(ext, error_if_not_found=False) finds no available writer, it caches an empty tuple. A later resolve_writer(ext) then skips the registered candidates, so missing_pkgs stays empty and the error omits the install hint. Keep the original candidates when no writer is available:

Keep exact-version constraints in missing-package hints.

When require_pkg uses exact_version and the dependency is absent, the unversioned probe also fails, so pkg_name stays bare. resolve_writer turns that into a pip install hint; a registered writer can then install a version that still fails the exact check. Record the constraint and cover this missing-package case with a regression test.

Fixes Project-MONAI#7980.

resolve_writer raised a generic OptionalImportError when no registered
writer backend was available for the given extension, without telling
users which optional dependency to install.

- OptionalImportError now records the name of the missing package via
  the new pkg_name argument.
- require_pkg passes the missing package name to OptionalImportError.
  For an installed package with an incompatible version, the recorded
  name carries the version constraint (e.g. 'torch>=10000'), since an
  unconstrained 'pip install' would be a no-op in that case.
- resolve_writer collects the packages of the unavailable candidate
  writers and appends installation hints to the error message, e.g.
  'No ImageWriter backend found for png. Please install the missing
  package(s): pillow (e.g. `pip install pillow`).' The PIL import name
  is translated to the installable pillow distribution; the generic
  message is kept when dependency details are unavailable.
- tests added to tests/data/test_image_rw.py and
  tests/utils/test_require_pkg.py.

Addressed both remaining review points:

  1. Empty-result caching — resolve_writer now caches the resolved tuple only when available writers exist, so a non-raising lookup without backends no longer overwrites the registered candidates and a later required lookup still reports the installation hint (regression: TestRegRes.test_6_empty_result_not_cached).
  2. Constraint on missing packages — require_pkg records the version constraint in pkg_name whenever version is specified (also simplifying away the extra import probe), with == for exact_version and >= otherwise (regression: test_missing_exact_version_exception).

Local verification: 16 passed across test_require_pkg + TestRegRes; black/isort/ruff clean.

Preserve the ImportError constructor keywords.

OptionalImportError previously accepted inherited name and path keywords. The new signature makes OptionalImportError("missing", name="PIL") raise TypeError instead. Accept those keywords and forward them to ImportError.__init__ while storing pkg_name. Python documents both keywords for ImportError. (docs.python.org)

Do not infer >= from an arbitrary version checker.

require_pkg accepts a callable version_checker. A checker that enforces an upper bound can reject the installed version, but this branch records a >= requirement and tells the user to install another incompatible version. Emit >= only for min_version; use a generic package hint when the checker has no known constraint format.

As per path instructions, “Examine code for logical error or inconsistencies.”

Review comment at @monai/utils/module.py around lines 497 - 499:
Update the version-constraint hint in require_pkg: emit >= only when
version_checker is min_version, retain == for exact_version, and use a generic
package hint for other checkers whose constraint format is unknown.
