Ariadne Python : ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'graphql.type'

Question

I am getting following error when using latest ariadne 0.16.1 with graphql-core 3.2.3 and Python 3.10. It's a FastAPI app.

from fastapi import FastAPI from ariadne.asgi import GraphQL

Second line throws the error

from graphql.type import GraphQLEnumType, GraphQLNamedType, GraphQLSchema ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'graphql.type'

I tried changing libraries versions both upgrading and downgrading but no luck.

Thanks

UPDATE

issue is resolved. There was a graphql directory in the project. renaming it fixed the issue. Thanks.

The documentation suggests is should just be `from graphql import...`, without the `.type`. — Tim Roberts, Oct 07 '22 at 06:47
@TimRoberts error is thrown from the ariadne package..I have not imported it explicitly in my code. — N.Moudgil, Oct 07 '22 at 06:49

If the code is in a graphql/ directory then Python is confused about the modules and tries to find graphql/types.py in your directory instead of the package one.

If that's the case then rename your graphql/ directory to something else, e.g. graphql_api/.
