Multilevel relative import

Question

Multilevel relative import

I have following folder structure

top\\
   __init__.py
   util\\
      __init__.py
      utiltest.py
   foo\\
      __init         


        

Answer 1

You must import foobar from the parent folder of top:

import top.foo.bar.foobar

This tells Python that top is the top level package. Relative imports are possible only inside a package.
