I know this might sound simple but I have been wracking my brain for a while now with no resolution.
I have a python script structured as follows:
app
└── my_resource.py
└── utils
└── my_file.py
└── exceptions
└──my_exception.py
Both my_resource.py and my_file.py need to import my_exception.py.
As per the structure, I am importing as shown below:
my_resource.py :
from utils import my_file as my_file
from utils.exceptions import my_exception as my_exception
my_file.py :
from exceptions import my_exception as my_exception
As per my understanding, as I am not importing from a different folder, the import must work. But, I get the following error every time I run my_resource.py.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "my_resource.py", line 9, in <module>
from utils import my_file as my_file
File "my_file.py", line 6, in <module>
from exceptions import my_exception as my_exception
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'exceptions'
But, when I remove from exceptions import my_exception as my_exception from my_file.py module, my_resource.py runs successfully.
Why is this the case? Is this because there is some form of nested import here [even then why should there be an import error]?
