vscode plugin not finding local imports in some cases

[jorenham]

This screenshot is from scipy-stubs, specifically in scipy-stubs/sparse/csgraph/_validation.pyi (the relevant code isn't pushed yet, but will be soon).

So here the basedpyright suggested to import sparray from scipy.sparse._base, which I accepted because it was the only available option. But in the screenshot you can see that it wasn't able to find spmatrix, even though it also is available in (at least) scipy.sparse._base.

Within scipy.sparse._base.__all__, only sparray is explicitly exported, and spmatrix is implicitly exported through from {} import spmatrix as spmatrix (blame scipy).

But the strange thing is that both spmatrix and sparray are both explicitly exported at the package level, i.e. through scipy.sparse.__init__.__all__. However, in both cases, the basedpyright plugin wasn't able to suggest this 🤔.

looks like the only difference between sparray and spmatrix is that spmatrix is an explicit re-export (from ._matrix import spmatrix as spmatrix), maybe there's an issue with import suggestions with re-exports?

does the same thing happen with completions?

Yea, I suppose that makes sense. Especially because sparray is actually defined in scipy.sparse._base, whereas spmatrix isn't.

Yea I believe so, but it's hard to tell because I'm also using codeium as an AI autocomplete assistant thingy
