Import [python django module] could not be resolved from source Pylance (reportMissingModuleSource) -- even though Django is installed in my venv

[Michael Starr]

I did pip install django on my venv, which is activated, and it reported already installed. But the following modules are reporting the error in the subject line:

django.db

models

django.utils.crypto

django.urls

django.contrib

admin

django.shortcuts

django.views.generic

I don't know what's wrong. My server runs in development mode (not in production yet), but there havev been some bugs that are hard to imagine are caused by this, but still (images not loading, CSS not loading).

Thanks.

Should I suppose that it appears like error only in your editor, but the app runs with no problem?

I guess the error is that your IDE is not pointing to the correct python interpreter

Hi Michael 

May Peace, Blessings & Mercy of Almighty God be on you!

do you know how to modify the sys.path to add the directory where the listed modules are installed?

On Linux/UNIX

Execute the find command to locate the directory where the modules are installed and include the same in the path

On windows 

Execute the dir/s to locate the directory where the modules are installed and include the same in the path

Best of luck

God Bless You!
God Bless India!!

Thank you for the replies. I am overwhelmed right now but will check back on them later.

I think you two are right that it's the IDE. It's VSCode (I don't know what version). I was just suspicious b/c there were some strange bugs in my django project. I won't worry about it. If it annoys me I'll redirect the pointers.

If you felt the problem was vs code, I have a suggestion. Try it out and if it works, get back to me.

Open your comman prompt terminal and input

Python -m venv venv (press enter)

Venv/static/activate (press enter)

Then install django again

This is a wild suggestion, but as someone here mentioned, your vscode might be pointing to the wrong interpreter.

Check at the bottom bar of your vscode with a .py file open. Next to {}python you should see what environment you are using. 

eg. 3.11.3 64-bit or 3.11.3('.venv':venv)

The latter is what you are looking for. If it's not, click on whatever is there and on popup, select the appropriate.

Thanks. I already have a venv, to answer the first post, and the second, yes, it says 3.11.2. I think VSCode just has a bug. It doesn't bother me and my app works in all other respects. Thank you for the input.

Michael

[Michael Starr]

And yeah, django is installed in the venv.
