Import Error at celery launch

[charlenef]

I have a folder structure like this:

- src
     -- \frontend
          --- \views
              ---- tasks.py
      -- \generator
          --- tasks.py

♪ frontend/views/tasks I do: from generator import tasks♪
When the folders start from the folder views Pyton says:

ImportError: No module named generator

What's the reason for this mistake?

Parental Directory generator I have to be sys.path♪ from generator import tasks I was working in that case.

Enough. src The directors will launch the path to PYTHONPATH automatically add:

src$ python -m frontend.views.tasks

If you want to get out of other directors at the time of development, you can create setup.py For each package and to establish them:

<top-package-dir>$ pip install -e .

Don't change your hands. sys.path In its code, it leads to surprises with invisible origin, for example, see. http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0395/#traps-for-the-unwary ♪

Some packages are automatically modified sys.pathe.g. twisted Use it. https://github.com/twisted/twisted/blob/ea2a2000a922f7269060ef9dd9a7db6cd4261ee0/bin/_preamble.py to make violets of bin Directors could not be installed twisted Find a package. But such practices are not encouraged, for example, Pypy had a similar violin in the past. https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/src/a299cd0a893f/pypy/tool/autopath.py?at=default but now it's no longer used -- it's causing more problems than it does.
