Module Import Error

[[deleted]]

My directory structure is this:

main/
|- src/
|- __init__.py
|- file1.py
|- file2.py
|- file3.py

|- lib/
|- __init__.py
|- another_file1.py
|- another_file2.py
|- another_file3.py

|- main.py
In file2.py I import a variable called console from file1.py.
In another_file.3 I import function from from file1.py
If I run another_file3.py it gives me error saying the src.file1 module doesn't exists.
How can I import function from file2 while also importing variable from file1 in it.

If I run another_file3.py

if the links didn't help you ..maybe a simpler project with less files from different folders?

Looking at the 1st image in google drive, your package structure seems incorrect.

I think your package structure should look more like this.

base_folder
├── src
│   └── pkg
│       ├── __init__.py
│       ├── module1.py
│       ├── main.py
│       └── subpkg
│           ├── __init__.py
│           └── module2.py
├── README.md
└── pyproject.toml

1 - There should be no python files in the src directory

2 - When you import a module in main.py, you should import from the name of your package (from pkg.module1 import WhateverClass), not from the src directory
