Answer 1

Try this...

from ecommerce.database import Database

Answer 2

Since you are using Python 3.8 version, the imports work a little differently, but I think this should work:

Use either:

from database import Database
#Database is the class

or try:

import database.Database

lastly, this one is very secure and best practice possibly:

from . import Database  
# The '.' (dot) means from within the same directory as this __init__.py module grab the Database class.

Answer 3

This may seem like a hack but it actually work, this happens because of bad package structure

In you case try importing

from .vs_code.ecommerce import database

Now wherever you want to call the class constructor do this:

database.Database()

you can assign this to a variable and use it.

Answer 4

try the following

from ecommerce import database
