Description

🐛 Bug Reports

I am working for writing Python extension, but facing import submodule error.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'supermodule.submodule'; 'supermodule' is not a package
What do I expected

Import submodule like usual Python package.

🌍 Environment
$ uname -a
Linux xxxxxx 4.19.84-microsoft-standard #1 SMP Wed Nov 13 11:44:37 UTC 2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux
  • Your python version:
$ python -V
Python 3.8.1
  • How did you install python (e.g. apt or pyenv)? Did you use a virtualenv?:
$ pyenv virtualenv system xxxxxx
  • Your rust version (rustc --version):
rustc 1.43.0-nightly (c9290dcee 2020-02-04)
  • Are you using the latest pyo3 version? Have you tried using latest master (replace version = "0.x.y" with git = "https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3")?
    Yes.
💥 Reproducing

Please provide a minimal working example. This means both the rust code and the python.

Please also write what exact flags are required to reproduce your results.
src/lib.rs

use pyo3::prelude::*;
use pyo3::{wrap_pyfunction, wrap_pymodule};
use pyo3::types::IntoPyDict;

#[pyfunction]
fn subfunction() -> String {
    "Subfunction".to_string()
}

#[pymodule]
fn submodule(_py: Python, module: &PyModule) -> PyResult<()> {
    module.add_wrapped(wrap_pyfunction!(subfunction))?;
    Ok(())
}

#[pymodule]
fn supermodule(_py: Python, module: &PyModule) -> PyResult<()> {
    module.add_wrapped(wrap_pymodule!(submodule))?;
    Ok(())
}

Research direction

Start with the reproducing example in src/lib.rs and its Cargo.toml, then run maturin develop followed by the reported Python import command. Compare the module layout produced by this setup with the expected import path; done means from supermodule.submodule import subfunction succeeds without the ModuleNotFoundError.
