'Series' object has no attribute 'iteritems' - iteritems seems to have been deprecated

[wayner9]

Problem Description

Get an error when trying to generate Tearsheet. 'Series' object has no attribute 'iteritems'

Apparently Pandas 2.0 deprecated iteritems. I am using pandas 2.1.2.

Will this be fixed?

ValueError: Incompatible indexer with Series

[sandroboehme]

I was just about to open a bug entry here as I haven't got a response to my Stackoverflow question yet.
With Pandas <2.0.0 I haven't got it running either but I'd certainly prefer a more recent version.

More details to reproduce it can be found here if needed:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77636192/attributeerror-series-object-has-no-attribute-iteritems-in-simple-custom
But Pandas 2.0 deprecated iteritems is kinda enough of a description I guess :-D

[sandroboehme]

It looks like Pyfolio is not maintained anymore.
I've got it working by using
pyfolio-reloaded. See:
#690

!pip install pandas=1.5.3

problem solved !
