PyCharm 中未解决的参考问题

Question

I have a directory structure

├── simulate.py
├── src
│   ├── networkAlgorithm.py
│   ├── ...

And I can access the.network module with sys.path.insert() .

import sys
import os.path
sys.path.insert(0, "./src")
from networkAlgorithm import *

However, pycharm complains that it cannot access the module. How can I teach pycham to resolve the reference?

Answer 1

Manually adding it as you have done is indeed one way of doing this, but there is a simpler method, and that is by simply telling pycharm that you want to add the src folder as a source root, and then adding the sources root to your python path.

This way, you don't have to hard code things into your interpreter's settings:

• Add src as a source content root:

• Then make sure to add add sources to your PYTHONPATH under:

   Preferences ~ Build, Execution, Deployment ~ Console ~ Python Console

• Now imports will be resolved:

This way, you can add whatever you want as a source root, and things will simply work. If you unmarked it as a source root however, you will get an error:

After all this don't forget to restart. In PyCharm menu select: File --> Invalidate Caches / Restart

Answer 2

1. check for __init__.py file in src folder
2. add the src folder as a source root
3. Then make sure to add sources to your PYTHONPATH (see above)
4. in PyCharm menu select: File --> Invalidate Caches --> Restart

Answer 3

If anyone is still looking at this, the accepted answer still works for PyCharm 2016.3 when I tried it. The UI might have changed, but the options are still the same.

ie. Right click on your root folder --> 'Mark Directory As' --> Source Root

Answer 4

After testing all workarounds, i suggest you to take a look at Settings -> Project -> project dependencies and re-arrange them.

Answer 5

Normally, $PYTHONPATH is used to teach python interpreter to find necessary modules . PyCharm needs to add the path in Preference.

Answer 6

There are several reasons why this could be happening. Below are several steps that fixes the majority of those cases:

.idea caching issue

Some .idea issue causing the IDE to show error while the code still runs correctly. Solution:

1. close the project and quick PyCharm
2. delete the .idea folder where the project is. note that it is a hidden folder and you might not be aware of its existence in your project directory.
3. start PyCharm and recreate the project

imports relative not to project folder

Relative imports while code root folder is not the same as the project folder. Solution:

1. Find the folder that relative imports require in the project explorer
2. right click and mark it as "Source Root"

Editor not marking init .py as Python but as Text

Which is the most illusive of all the cases. Here, for some reason, PyCharm considers all __init__.py files not to be python files, and thus ignores them during code analysis. To fix this:

1. Open PyCharm settings
2. Navigate to Editor -> File Types
3. Find Python and add __init__.py to the list of python files

or

3. Find Text and delete __init__.py from the list of text files

Answer 7

The project I cloned had a directory called modules and was successfully using files from there in the code with import this as that , but Pycharm was unable to jump to those code fragments because it did not recognise the imports.

Marking the module folder in the following settings section as source solved the issue.

Answer 8

一般来说，这是一个缺少包的问题，​​只需将插入符号放在未解析的引用处，然后按Alt+Enter显示选项，然后您应该知道如何解决它。

Answer 9

Although all the answers are really helpful, there's one tiny piece of information that should be explained explicitly:

• Essentially, a project with multiple hierarchical directories work as a package with some attributes.
• To import custom local created Classes, we need to navigate to the directory containing .py file and create an __init__.py (empty) file there.

Why this helps is because this file is required to make Python treat the directory as containing packages. Cheers!

Answer 10

Install via PyCharm (works with Community Edition). Open up Settings > Project > Project Interpreter then click the green + icon in the screenshot below. In the 2nd dialogue that opens, enter the package name and click the 'Install Package' button.

Answer 11

After following the accepted answer, doing the following solved it for me:

File → Settings → Project <your directory/project> → Project Dependencies

Chose the directory/project where your file that has unresolved imports resides and check the box to tell Pycharm that that project depends on your other project.

My folder hierarcy is slightly different from the one in the question. Mine is like this

├── MyDirectory  
│     └── simulate.py  
├── src  
│     ├── networkAlgorithm.py  
│     ├── ...

Telling Pycharm that src depends on MyDirectory solved the issue for me!

Answer 12

这对我有用： Top Menu -> File -> Invalidate Caches/Restart

Answer 13

1. --> Right-click on the directory where your files are located in PyCharm
2. Go to the --> Mark Directory as
3. Select the --> Source Root

your problem will be solved

Answer 14

Many a times what happens is that the plugin is not installed. eg

If you are developing a django project and you do not have django plugin installed in pyCharm, it says error 'unresolved reference'. Refer: https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/help/resolving-references.html

Answer 15

我也使用了像上面 Dan 这样的虚拟环境，但是我能够在现有环境中添加解释器，因此不需要继承全局站点包，因此不需要撤销虚拟环境试图实现的功能。

Answer 16

Please check if you are using the right interpreter that you are supposed to. I was getting error "unresolved reference 'django' " to solve this I changed Project Interpreter (Changed Python 3 to Python 2.7) from project settings: Select Project, go to File -> Settings -> Project: -> Project Interpreter -> Brows and Select correct version or Interpreter (eg /usr/bin/python2.7).

Answer 17

In my case the problem was I was using Virtual environment which didn't have access to global site-packages. Thus, the interpreter was not aware of the newly installed packages.

To resolve the issue, just edit or recreate your virtual interpreter and tick the Inherit global site-packages option.

Answer 18

在 PyCharm 2019.3.1 中完成右键单击​​您的 src 文件夹->“将目录标记为”-> 单击“已排除” ，您的 src 文件夹应该是蓝色的。

Answer 19

For my case :

Directory0
    ├── Directory1
    │     └── file1.py  
    ├── Directory2
    │     ├── file2.py  

Into file1, I have :

from Directory2 import file2

which trows an "unresolved reference Directory2".

I resolved it by:

• marking the parent directory Directory0 as "Source Root" like said above

AND

• putting my cursor on another line on the file where I had the error so that it takes my modification into account

It is silly but if I don't do the second action, the error still appears and can make you think that you didn't resolve the issue by marking the parent directory as Source Root.

Answer 20

For me, adding virtualenv ( venv )'s site-packages path to the paths of the interpreter works. Finally!

Answer 21

I tried everything here twice and even more. I finally solved it doing something I hadn't seen anywhere online. If you go to Settings>Editor>File Types there is an 'Ignore Files and folders ' line at the bottom. In my case, I was ignoring 'venv' , which is what I always name my virtual environments. So I removed venv; from the list of directories to ignore and VOILA!! I was FINALLY able to fix this problem. Literally all of my import problems were fixed for the project.

BTW, I had installed each and every package using PyCharm, and not through a terminal. (Meaning, by going to Settings>Interpreter... ). I had invalidated cache, changed 'Source Root', restarted PyCharm, refreshed my interpreters paths, changed interpreters, deleted my venv... I tried everything. This finally worked. Obviously there are multiple problems going on here with different people, so this may not work for you, but it's definitely worth a shot if nothing else has worked, and easy to reverse if it doesn't.

Answer 22

I had the same problem and also try so many suggestions but none of them worked, until I find this post ( https://stackoverflow.com/a/62632870/16863617 ). Regardless his solution didn't work for me, it helped me to came up with the idea to add _ init.py _ into the --> Settings | Editor | File Types | Python | Registered patterns

And the unresolved reference error is now solved.

Answer 23

请注意，如果您遇到 python 解释器未安装软件包的问题，​​只需将文件夹PycharmProjects C:\Users'username'\PycharmProjects 的权限更改为每个

Answer 24

This problem also appears if you use a dash within the Python filename, which therefore is strongly discouraged.

Answer 25

I encountered an import problem when installing aiogram. At the same time, the bot worked, but pyCharm highlighted the import in red and did not give hints. I've tried all of the above many times.As a result, the following helped me: I found the aiogram folder at the following path c\Users...\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python310\site-packages and copied it to the folder C:\Program Files\Python310\Lib\site-packages After that, I reset pyCharm and that's it!

Answer 26

In my case, with Pycharm 2019.3, the problem was that I forgot to add the extension '.py' to the file I wanted to import. Once added, the error went away without needing to invalides caches or any other step.

Answer 27

Pycharm uses venv. In the venv's console you should install the packages explicitly or go in settings -> project interpreter -> add interpreter -> inherit global site-packages .

Answer 28

The easiest way to fix it is by doing the following in your pyCharm software:

Click on: File > Settings > (Project: your project name) > Project Interpreter >

then click on the "+" icon on the right side to search for the package you want and install it.

Enjoy coding !!!
