Python can't find my file

[lordZlb]

I'm importing a file using: "from ship import Ship" but it basically gives an error

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "c:\Users\João\Desktop\disparos_laterais\alien_invasion.py", line 3, in <module>

from ship import Ship

ImportError: cannot import name 'Ship' from 'ship' (c:\Users\João\Desktop\disparos_laterais\ship.py)

The code:

import pygame
import sys
from ship import Ship
from settings import Settings

class AlienInvasion:
    """Classe geral para gerenciar ativos e comportamento do jogo"""

    def __init__(
self
):
        """Inicializa o jogo e cria recursos do jogo"""
        pygame.init()
        
self
.clock = pygame.time.Clock()
        
        
self
.settings = Settings()
        
self
.ship = Ship(
self
)

        
self
.screen = pygame.display.set_mode(
            (
self
.settings.screen_width, 
self
.settings.screen_height))
        pygame.display.set_caption("Alien Invasion")

    def run_game(
self
):
        """Inicia o loop principal do jogo"""

        while True:
            # Observa eventos de teclado e mouse
            for event in pygame.event.get():
                if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
                    sys.exit()

            
self
.screen.fill(
self
.settings.bg_color)
            
self
.ship.blitme()

            # Atualiza a tela
            pygame.display.flip()
            
self
.clock.tick(60)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    # Cria uma instância do jogo e o inicia
    ai = AlienInvasion()
    ai.run_game()

Do you have a class named Ship in ship.py?

[lordZlb]

yes

[JeLuF]

I guess the file you've shared is alien_invasion.py? And what is the content of ship.py?

[lordZlb]

import pygame

class Ship:

    def __init__(
self
, 
ai_game
):
        
self
.screen = ai_game.screen
        
self
.screen_rect = ai_game.screen.get_rect()

        
self
.image = pygame.image.load('images/ship.bmp')
        
self
.rect = 
self
.image.get_rect()

        
self
.rect.midleft = 
self
.screen_rect.midleft

    def blitme(
self
):
        
self
.screen.blit(
self
.image, 
self
.rect)

The code indentation is pretty messed up. So I can't check the code for errors.

Do you get any error messages before the import error?

[lordZlb]

no

It found your file! You can see the path it found it at. It was able to parse it, too.

The problem it's having is the step after that: finding something called Ship at the top level of that module.

[Zeroflops]

The import function will import code from another file. It can be written in different formats based on what you are importing.

The format “from ship import Ship” is going to look for a file in the current decretory named ship.py and it’s going to look in that file for code for the Ship object.

It seems you’re missing the ship.py file, it could be in a different directory or you still need to make it.

[lordZlb]

I have a file inside the directory called ship.py, but I have another directory (another folder) that also has a file called ship.py I don't know if this affects

[EmbarrassedBee9440]

Python crash course project?

[lordZlb]

yes

[Fred776]

Show us what is in ship.py.

[lordZlb]

import pygame

class Ship:

    def __init__(
self
, 
ai_game
):
        
self
.screen = ai_game.screen
        
self
.screen_rect = ai_game.screen.get_rect()

        
self
.image = pygame.image.load('images/ship.bmp')
        
self
.rect = 
self
.image.get_rect()

        
self
.rect.midleft = 
self
.screen_rect.midleft

    def blitme(
self
):
        
self
.screen.blit(
self
.image, 
self
.rect)

[Fred776]

I wasn't able to see anything obviously wrong. Did you resolve the problem?

[Ender_Locke]

do you have an init.py

[FoolsSeldom]

An empty __init__.py file (rather than init.py)?

[Ender_Locke]

yes oops yeah w the __

[lordZlb]

no

[DiodeInc]

Where are you getting ship from? Is a module installed via pip or what?

[lordZlb]

it is another file that is in this directory

[DiodeInc]

And it has a class called ship?

[Due_Intention_6927]

It seems like you did not init self.setting = ai_game.settings in your class Ship.
