Cannot find reference 'Sun' in '__init__.py | __init__.py'

When i use ephem.Sun(date), it show the info that Cannot find reference 'Sun' in 'init.py | init.py'

Python 3.10.13 ephem 4.1.5

Print out the value of ephem.__file__. Maybe you are importing a file of your own that you have named ephem.py, instead of importing my module?

i run ephem is ok. you are right, it may be the PyCharm show a wrong message。but why PyCharm did show the message that Cannot find reference 'Sun' in 'init.py | init.py' . and i can't find the method of class define in the ephem module.

The Sun object is defined dynamically from a table inside of the C module that PyEphem compiles — here's the code if you want to take a look:

https://github.com/brandon-rhodes/pyephem/blob/master/ephem/__init__.py#L90

If you are getting an error about the Sun not being defined, you need to check ephem.__file__ to see what file is being loaded. Also, try print(dir(ephem)) and paste the results here, so we can see what symbols are defined in the file.
