I have a file: STARTDIR/module/submodule/config.py I have another file: STARDIR/utils/filesys/getAbsPath.py Why does this line

  • 0

I have a file:

STARTDIR/module/submodule/config.py

I have another file:

STARDIR/utils/filesys/getAbsPath.py

Why does this line work, in config.py?

from ..utils.filesys import getAbsPath

It seems like .. refers to module, not STARTDIR. There isn’t any utils in module at all. In fact, doing

from .. import utils

yields

ImportError: cannot import name utils

    This should work:

    from ...utils.filesystem import getAbsPath
    

    This is because:

    • from . import … imports from STARTDIR/module/submodule/
    • from .. import … imports from STARTDIR/module/
    • from ... import … imports from STARTDIR/
