python: Two modules and classes with the same name under different packages

Question

I have started to learn python and writing a practice app. The directory structure looks like

src
 |
 --ShutterDeck
    |
    --Helper
       |
       --User         


        

Answer 1

One way is just:

import ShutterDeck.Controller.User
import ShutterDeck.Helper.User

cuser = ShutterDeck.Controller.User.User()
huser = ShutterDeck.Helper.User.User()

You can also do this:

from ShutterDeck.Controller.User import User as ControllerUser
from ShutterDeck.Helper.User import User as HelperUser
