Python3 error "ImportError: No module named" is __init__.py
I created a simple flash application and my directory structure looks like this:
myproject
- src
-- models
--- __init__.py
-- views
--- errors.py
--- default.py
-- application.py
-- config.py
-- __init__.py
- test
-- test_myproject.py
Readme.md
setup.py
..
application.py from src looks like this:
from src.models import db
from src.views.errors import error_pages
from src.views.scoreboard import scoreboard
from src.config import config
test_myproject looks like this:
from src.models import db, Result
from src.application import create_app
I am using Pycharm to develop it and when I press run it works, but when I try to run it via command line python application.py
I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "src/application.py", line 18, in <module>
from src.models import db
ImportError: No module named 'src'
Run unittests with python -m unittest
.
If I change the import from application.py to:
from models import db
from views.errors import error_pages
from views.scoreboard import scoreboard
from config import config
It will work when I run it through the command line, however the tests will no longer work.
File ".../src/application.py", line 18, in <module>
from models import db
ImportError: No module named 'models'
What am I doing wrong?

You said you were using python application.py
, which tells you what your working directory is src
. To be able to import modules under src.*
(without reproducing with PYTHONPATH), you must run Python from the directory myproject
.
Consider either moving application.py
to myproject
or starting it with python src/application.py
.
