如何使用 python package 中的点进行相对导入？

Question

I have a folder named as "model_dir" contains multiple *.py files.

model_dir:

"model.py"

"utils.py"

inside model.py I can import like this: from utils import test

I want to copy the whole folder inside a package. Currently to make the import works inside the package I have two options:

1- adding folder path to sys.path

2- add dot for imports, like this: from.utils import test

Is there any way to make imports work without changing the code or sys path?

Have you tried including a blank __init__.py file in the model_dir folder? That should let python files import sibling files- I'm a novice dev myself and often run into pitfalls with imports inside packages, and I've found this link to be pretty helpful figuring out what I've done wrong
