ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'SLCT'

December 19, 2021

English is not my mother tongue, so there might be some grammatical errors in my question.
Sorry about that.
I git clone a project from github to my VScode. When I wanted to run demo code, a "ModuleNotFoundError" occured. I was confused about this error. Because I checked module and it did exit, I also haven’t install same name module before.
Here is the project-tree of the project.(Only parts including "SLCT" are given)

"SLCT_demo.py" import SLCT from logparser.

import sys
import os
# sys.path.append('../')
sys.path.append(os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))))                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
# sys.path.append('../logparser//SLCT//SLCT.py')
# print(sys.path)
from logparser import SLCT

When I ran "SLCT_demo.py", this error occured.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Users\57142\Desktop\Project files\source code\logparser_root\demo\SLCT_demo.py", line 9, in <module>
    from logparser import SLCT
  File "c:\Users\57142\Desktop\Project files\source code\logparser_root\logparser\SLCT\__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
    from SLCT import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'SLCT'

Here is "init.py" of "SLCT".
from SLCT import *
Thanks for spending time on my question. Have a nice day!

>Solution :

In order to run from SLCT import * inside file x.py, you need to have the following directory structure:

File x.py
Folder SLCT
- File __init__.py

In your case, you are trying to run from SLCT import * inside file __init__.py, which means that you need to have the following directory structure:

File __init__.py
Folder SLCT
- File __init__.py

And in your case, since this whole thing is already inside a folder named SLCT, you’re probably caught in your own confusion.

In short, it sounds like you want to simply move the entire contents of file SLCT.py into file __init__.py (although it’s hard to say for sure, because you haven’t made the rest of your code visible).
