No module named options.pipeline_options

Question

I just started with the original Apache documentation guide, it looks like this particular pipeline import is no longer available.

from apache_beam.options.pipeline_options import PipelineOptions

Mistake:

ImportError Traceback (last call last) in () ----> 1 from apache_beam.options.pipeline_options import PipelineOptions

**

ImportError: No module named options.pipeline_options

**

Any active python users of the apache bundle? Who knows what is the actual import path?

Go to Python Lib folder or site folder and check the folder structure in the apache_beam package.

If the structure is a folder apache_beam\pipeline

then your import statement should befrom apache_beam.pipeline import *

Or is it better to use a target import operation as pointed out in @gnanagurus answer.

It looks like it has been renamed / refactored to this module name:

from apache_beam.pipeline import PipelineOptions

Basically its apache_beam.pipeline instead of apache_beam.options.pipeline_options

And it works successfully!

Note: 2.7.13 is my python version
