Importing python pydriller module doesn't work in venv

Question

I'm trying to import pydriller using python interpreter in venv, after installing pydriller with pip I try the following:

from pydriller import RepositoryMining

but the IDE can't recognize "RepositoryMining" and I'm getting this error:

cannot import name 'RepositoryMining' from partially initialized module 'pydriller' (most likely due to a circular import)

Although I can see in the "venv" the "pydriller" folder which contains a file with the class "RepositoryMining",

And after that said, I tried to install pydriller on the system (without venv) and it worked, but the problem is that I need it to be working in the project with the virtual environment, any suggestions on how to fix it?

Answer 1

The problem was that my python file name was "pydriller.py", I needed to rename it to avoid import conflicts (hoping that this will help someone).
