Importing modules at parent path

Question

My project is: mymodule.py and test/test.py

In test.py I put: from myfunc import mymodule

but python 3.6 answers: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'titalicapi'

If instead I put (after reading about similar questions): from ... import mymodule the answer now is: ValueError: attempted relative import beyond top-level package

How I can let test.py to work? thanks!

• amanb: Do you have a __init__.py in the module folder?
• Leo: it's empty and it doesn't make any effect

Answer 1

could you perhaps show your file path? That'll help a lot.

Sample File Path
 mainfolder
 |-test.py
 | 
 |-workfiles
 |- myfunc

If your current project looks something like this, you can impprt the function and use workfiles.myfunc to access the function

from workfiles.myfunc import myfunc

I would suggest putting your main file in the root folder and sub-files/modules in other sub-folders for easier access! Hope this helped :)
