Python3 importing files in different directories-CodePudding

application
 ├── app
 │   └── folder

 │       └── file_2.py
 └── app2
     └── folder2
         └── file_3.py

I created a file_3 and trying to use classes found in file_1.

I tried to import using the following method but had an issue because file_1 is importing file_2 and was raising an error.

import sys
sys.path.append('/.../application/app/folder')
import file_1

How could I import file_1 from file_3 and all the files file_1 is importing.

I think the answer you are looking for is explained in this article. If I further understand you correctly, file_1is using classes from file_2? So my guess would be, that you also have to import file_2 aswell because the current working directory does not contain a file named file_2.

Go to folder2 and do this

from app.folder.file_1 import classeName
