I know this has already been asked multiple times (idk if on ask too, but on many other websides), but the problem is, none of the answers worked.
I want to import file1 into file2
Folder structure:
parent
|
|__file1.py
|
|__child
|
|__file2.py
Both folders contain a __init__.py
Thx to everyone who tries to help! 
Could you link to your Repl? The way to fix this will vary depending on how your Repl is set up.
First, you should decide whether you want to use an absolute or relative import.
Absolute imports make python search for the path in all directories listed in sys.path (or equivalently PYTHONPATH env variable), most commonly the top level directory, or an installed package, or a standard library module.
If the parent folder is inside the top level directory, then these are absolute options:
# file2.py
import parent.file1
from parent import file1
from parent.file1 import foo
This approach is more explicit and often much clearer for simple file structures, than relative imports.
Relative imports are what they sound like: an import relative from the file youâre in. A dot . basically represents going backwards into the containing folder.
# file2.py
from .. import file1
from ..file1 import foo
# The ".." represents "parent" folder.
# The first dot is the "child" folder
# The second dot is the folder that "child" is in: the "parent" folder
Non os working. Not parent and not ...
Its sais No module named Parent
Oh, I know why. You have to put disableGuessImports = true at the top of your .replit file. You might have to unhide it via the three dots and then select Show hidden files.
Still not working 
What exactly are you trying to import, and from where. Can you give me an exact location?
What error are you getting when using this?:
from .. import file1
Is the parent folder top level?
Try using the relative import:
from .. import file1
# or
from ..file1 import my_func
Also make sure that you have not installed any packages with the same name as any of the folders or files you are importing. Check pyproject.toml.
attempted relative import with no know parent package
How can I give you access to see the folder structure?(Dont wanna give full write access)
Or should i send Screenshot?
A link to your Repl (not an invite link) doesnât provide write access.
Try
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '..')
import checklog
Here I changed checklog to just a simple print(âHello worldâ) to show that it is successfully importing checklog.
@vvithershins @Firepup650 @NuclearPasta0 @Sky
I think Ill just put them in the same folder, bc it looks like I canât get it to work
You should be able to.
import ..checklog
Should work fineâŠ
Iâm sorry I see now that what I provided only works if you run from the shell and not with the run button.
I fixed this by changing sys.path.insert(0, '..') to
sys.path.insert(0, 'test')
What you are trying to do is weird and unpythonic. Your main.py âentrypointâ file should not be deeper than the modules you need to use.
You can import test/checklog.py from test/log/main.py, but you have to do a messy and fragile workaround using sys.path:
import sys
# Insert the directory path (is relative to the current working directory, not the run file)
sys.path.insert(0, 'test')
import checklog
What I would recommend is moving your main.py into test so that you can use normal import statements and a sensible file structure.
