I cannot seem to figure out why mypy is throwing an error on own module import.
$ python -m mypy ./reader/api/response/response.py
reader/api/response/response.py:5: error: Skipping analyzing 'reader.api.response.answer': found module but no type hints or library stubs
reader/api/response/response.py:5: note: See https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/running_mypy.html#missing-imports
Found 1 error in 1 file (checked 1 source file)
The response.py imports a class from another module in the same repository
from __future__ import annotations
from typing import List
from dataclasses import dataclass
from reader.api.response.answer import Answer # <- mypy fails here.
@dataclass
class ReaderResponse:
...
The content of answer.py is this:
from __future__ import annotations
from dataclasses import dataclass, fields
@dataclass
class Answer:
answer: str
score: float
source: str
url: str
type: str
...
Why does mypy think there are no type hints in my imported module? I have read the documentation on missing imports here, but don't understand how does that apply. It is not a third-party library. It's my own module.
Any clues what am I doing wrong here?
Thank you.
Edit: So switching from namespace packages to regular ones, and switching to relative imports (dot-imports) fixed my problems. Not exactly sure why...
