Import statement works on PyCharm but not from terminal

by

You are running foo.py like a script, but you are really using it like a module. So the proper solution is to run it as a module:

python3 -m somepackage.foo

For the record, another alternative is to edit your path like:

export PYTHONPATH=.

(Or you could put the absolute directory in there, and of course you should append any other directories that are already in your PYTHONPATH.) This is closer to what PyCharm does, but is less philosophically correct.
