nbdev does not export imports to modules.

[LinuxIsCool]

If this is my jupyter:

#| export
import pandas as pd

#| export
def df():
    return pd.DataFrame()

Then after running nbdev_export, my module looks like:

def df():
    return pd.DataFrame()

And when I try to import and use the function somewhere else:

from package.module import df
a = df()

Then I get the error NameError: name 'pd' is not defined

You don't see

import pandas as pd

in the module file?

[LinuxIsCool]

No it's not there.

Can you make sure your nb looks like this? Also, if possible, can you share a small reproducible example?

#| default_exp module

#| export
import pandas as pd

#|export
def df():
    return pd.DataFrame()

[LinuxIsCool]

My bad. I had #| hide instead of #| export.
