Not able to import module from other directory using python?

Question

Please find my project structure attached as image below

I'm running jobs/my_job.py from project root directory ie from sample_project, when I'm running the jobs/my_job.py using python.\jobs\my_job.py getting the following error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".\jobs\my_job.py", line 1, in <module>
    from dependencies.spark import test
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dependencies'

This is the code I'm running

from dependencies.spark import test

def main():
    test()

Since I'm running the code from root directory, why I'm getting that error?

please find the screen of whole

Answer 1

I think you should add dependencies folder to system paths, because the script you are trying to run locates in another directory.

import sys
sys.path.append('../dependencies')

from dependencies.spark import test
if __name__ == '__main__':
    test()
