PyCharm editor and Python console unresolved reference

votes

If I have a module in my project with all the inits configured properly and I try to import anything from this module, PyCharm does not identify what I am trying to import. It would work before but somehow it stopped working and I have no idea why.

Example:

./package/file.py

def function():
    print('function')

./package/__init__.py

from .file import function

./call.py

from package import function

function()

The code executes fine but I can't use auto complete and the editor is informing an error "Unresolved reference 'function'" in the file ./call.py

Methods I tried that did not work:

  • Invalidate Caches / Restart
  • Use different the interpreter (but still using conda)
  • CTRL + Space doesn't show anything I need
  • Tab doesn't show anything I need
  • Restart PyCharm

EDIT0: If I use import package the autocomplete works fine displaying the functions (package.function) to use while in the Python Console, but still doesn't work in the editor.

EDIT1: I tried to mark the directory as Source Root and it did not work

EDIT2: Tried uninstalling from snap and installing it all back again after removing all files from /home/usr/.PyCharm* and it is working fine.

You need to mark top level directory as a Source Root.

Right-Click on it, and at the bottom there is an option Mark Directory as and choose Sources Root. It will turn blue.

Then you can import:

from package import function
function()

OR

import package
package.function()
