python unresolved import

[fdq09eca]

everything is installed and the script runs properly but the problems persist..

[ericsnowcurrently]

@fdq09eca, thanks for letting us know about this. It looks like the Python you have selected isn't the same one into which you installed those modules. What Python executable have you selected? (In the bottom left corner click on the "Python 3.X.X".) Also, please provide the content of the "Python" output panel.

Once you have the Python executable path, try running <python> -c 'import sqlalchemy'.

Thank you for your reply. I have no idea if I am doing it right, but the issue is solved after appending the following line to .zshrc

export PATH="$PATH:/Users/macone/Library/Python/3.7/bin"

However, which python3 produces

/usr/local/bin/python3

if there is any worth, here is the python interpreter options

and i am using Python3.7.4

if possible, I would like the pip3 install goes directly to the respective path of /usr/local/bin/python3 instead of the extra line added to .zshrc

[ericsnowcurrently]

@fdq09eca, thanks, that helps. Looks like you have /usr/local/bin/python3 configured (or it was auto-configured). I'm guessing that pip was installed via a different version (try looking at cat `which pip3`). Per the output you provided, pip is installing into /usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages. I expect that /usr/local/bin/python3 is using a different site-packages (try looking at /usr/local/bin/python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.path)).

Thank you. I looked at /usr/local/bin/python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.path) but it seems nothing there, see below.

the cat `which pip3` result is the following:

[ericsnowcurrently]

Sorry, that should have been /usr/local/bin/python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.path)'. (Note the trailing single quote.)

As to which pip3, it appears to be using /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7. Is that the same as '/usr/local/bin/python3`?

[fdq09eca]

@ericsnowcurrently Sorry for the late reply, I missed this notification.

for /usr/local/bin/python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.path)', the result is the following

for cat `which pip3`, I am sorry that I do not understand what you mean..

should I change the /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7 to '/usr/local/bin/python3'? How can I do it?

if any worth, here is the result for which pip3

/usr/local/bin/pip3

Thank you!

[ericsnowcurrently]

First of all, regardless of the issue of where pip3 is installing packages, please make sure to invoke pip as a module rather than a command, e.g. /usr/local/bin/python3 -m pip install sqlalchemy. (I should have asked you to try this earlier.) This ensures that pip installs the packages relative to that Python. Using the pip3 command directly is less of an issue when you only have one Python installed, but I recommend always using python3 -m pip ... anyway. If that doesn't fix the problem then please let us know.

As to the original reported problem, what we see here is that /usr/local/bin/python3 is using /Users/macone/Library/Python/3.7/ for "sys.prefix". I'm guessing that /usr/local/bin/python3 is actually a symlink. (You should be able to run something like type /usr/local/bin/python3 to see.) Consequently, for the installed packages to be available to that Python, pip3 must install packages into /Users/macone/Library/Python/3.7/lib/python/site-packages or /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages. It still isn't clear where pip3 is installing them. It should have said when you installed sqlalchemy, etc. You can also ask pip afterward to show you where it installed one or more packages: pip3 show sqlalchemy flask. I expect it will show a directory that is not on the sys.path that you reported. I also expect that /usr/local/bin/python3 -m pip show sqlalchemy will provide no output and that sqlalchemy will not show up in the output of /usr/local/bin/python3 -m pip list.

[fdq09eca]

It seems all of them are installed to /Users/macone/Library/Python/3.7/lib/python/site-packages

Honestly, I was expecting all those to be installed elsewhere. So something else is going on here. I did notice that the screenshot in your original post indicates a different installation location, which would align with the problem. On top of that, it looks like sqlalchemy wasn't part of that original problem. Let's check the following and see where things are at:

• run /usr/local/bin/python3 -m pip show flask_session
• run /usr/local/bin/python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Also, the original entries in the "Problems" panel were reported by the language server. Please verify that is the case. In your workspace settings.json (.vscode/settings.json), what is "python.jediEnabled" set to? What about "python.languageServer"? Please also provide the content of the Python output panel.

[Kyitrai]

I am having a similar issue, though my environment setup is a bit different. I'm using poetry for managing the environment and dependencies.

The behavior is that: any new packages added to the project (poetry add <package>) after starting up VSCode are not found (unresolved_import). Running the code from the terminal inside VS Code or a detached terminal with the venv activated does not encounter any import errors.

Poetry is set to instantiate the virtualenv in the project folder, so .vscode/settings.json has the setting "python.pythonPath": ".venv/bin/python". The environment selection according to the status bar is also correct.

I am using the Microsoft language server:

{
    "python.jediEnabled": false,
    "python.languageServer": "Microsoft",
}

[ericsnowcurrently]

@Kyitrai, please open a separate issue and refer back to this one. I suspect your situation is a slightly different problem and we don't want that to get lost in this issue. Thanks!

[fdq09eca]

Hi, @ericsnowcurrently, here is the required information, sorry for being late for long. I have done quite a few adjustments.. but none of them works, please treat it as a new issue. I reinstalled pip3 and every python package.. and now all of them are under /Users/macone/Library/Python/3.7/lib, again I would like it to be in /usr/local/bin/python3

Thank you!

I do not know how to provide the content of the Python output panel

Open the "View" menu and click on "Output". Then in the output panel click on the pull-down menu on the right (probably says "Tasks"). In that menu select "Python".

[ericsnowcurrently]

From what you've provided, it seems most likely that this is a problem with the language server rather than the Python extension itself. If the content of the "Python" output panel doesn't help then we will send this issue over to the language server team for further help.

[brettcannon]

Because we have not heard back with the information we requested, we are closing this issue for now. If you are able to provide the info later on then we will be happy to re-open this issue to pick up where we left off.
