If all occurring directories are Python packages, i.e. they all contain __init__.py, then you can use from ..bar_dir import bar If the directories aren’t Python packages, you can do this by messing around with sys.path, but you shouldn’t.
You can add custom paths this way. Go to File->Settings->project Interpreter In the Project-Interpreter field, click the down facing arrow and select “show All” In that Menu, highlight your interpreter and then in the right menu, select the button “Show paths for the selected interpreter” (this is the last button) click the plus symbol to … Read more
This will add a path to your Python process / instance (i.e. the running executable). The path will not be modified for any other Python processes. Another running Python program will not have its path modified, and if you exit your program and run again the path will not include what you added before. What … Read more
I’m quite a beginner in Python and I found the answer of Anand was very good but quite complicated to me, so I try to reformulate : 1) insert and append methods are not specific to sys.path and as in other languages they add an item into a list or array and : * append(item) … Read more
The same is true for the PATH variable, it’s also not carried into the super user environment, even though you’re passing the preserve environment flag -E. I’m using this sudo command now without any other modifications: sudo -HE env PATH=$PATH PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH ./bin/myscript Since it’s an alternative approach that works (for me) I thought I’d share … Read more
I found two answers to my question in the Anaconda forum: 1.) Put the modules into into site-packages, i.e. the directory $HOME/path/to/anaconda/lib/pythonX.X/site-packages which is always on sys.path. This should also work by creating a symbolic link. 2.) Add a .pth file to the directory $HOME/path/to/anaconda/lib/pythonX.X/site-packages. This can be named anything (it just must end with … Read more
If, like me, you are running your django in a virtualenv, and getting this error, look at your manage.py. The first line should define the python executable used to run the script. This should be the path to your virtualenv’s python, but it is something wrong like /usr/bin/python, which is not the same path and … Read more
I have a situation that I believe is relatively common. I want a script to import a module from another directory. My python project is laid out as follows: ~/project/ | |—modules/ | |—mod.py |—scripts/ |—script.py in script.py, I have from modules import mod. So my PYTHONPATH needs to be set to ~/project/ (something that … Read more
I had the same error, and this fix my issue python -m pip install django 🙂 Done!
Make sure you’re installing it for the version of python you’re using, with /path/to/your/python -m pip install <package>
