[FIXED] ImportError: cannot import name 'escape' from 'jinja2'

Issue

I am getting the error

ImportError: cannot import name 'escape' from 'jinja2'

When trying to run code using the following requirements.txt:

chart_studio==1.1.0
dash==2.1.0
dash_bootstrap_components==1.0.3
dash_core_components==2.0.0
dash_html_components==2.0.0
dash_renderer==1.9.1
dash_table==5.0.0
Flask==1.1.2
matplotlib==3.4.3
numpy==1.20.3
pandas==1.3.4
plotly==5.5.0
PyYAML==6.0
scikit_learn==1.0.2
scipy==1.7.1
seaborn==0.11.2
statsmodels==0.12.2
urllib3==1.26.7

Tried

pip install jinja2

But the requirement is already satisfied.
Running this code on a windows system.

Solution

This happens because Jinja has removed those functions in a recent version — 3.1.0 — released on March 24th, 2022.

Markup and escape should be imported from MarkupSafe.

You have two options form here:

1. either this error comes from one of your dependency. The first thing you should consider is to upgrade the said dependence(s). If this is not possible, what you can do, from here is to downgrade your Jinja version to a version that would still include escape, for example, adding it explicitly in your requirements.txt:

   jinja2<3.1.0
   

2. or, your error is from code you wrote, so you can fix it by importing it from MarkupSafe, as suggested in the Jinja release notes.

   So, you should use

   from markupsafe import escape
   

   instead of

   from jinja2 import escape
