I have a directory application in which I have two files. init.py and routes.py. I have set a variable in init.py. while I am one directory below package directory application , I am able to import the variable.

>>> from application  import hello_api_blueprint 
>>> hello_api_blueprint 
<flask.blueprints.Blueprint object at 0x7f4d6869da10>

But when I am inside package directory - application I am not able to import with multiple way

>>> from application  import hello_api_blueprint
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named application
>>> from .  import hello_api_blueprint
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package

How can I import this variable when I am inside the directory.

Just directly use `import hello_api_blueprint` – Dhruv Agarwal Feb 23 '22 at 10:00

Do you have `__init__.py` file inside application – Dhruv Agarwal Feb 23 '22 at 10:06
Which cmd are you using to run this code? – Dhruv Agarwal Feb 23 '22 at 10:10
Yes I have init file inside application and I am doing with relative and absolute import as shown in original post. – Bharat Sharma Feb 23 '22 at 10:14
