AttributeError: module 'mllaunchpad' has no attribute 'datasource'

[schuderer]

• ML Launchpad version: 1.0.0
• Model Type used: Python
• Python version: 3.8
• Operating System: Win 10

Description

When trying to write unit tests for your models under Python 3.8, when importing the pip-installed mllaunchpad packages, it might appear as if its submodules (like mllaunchpad.datasources, mllaunchpad.resource) are not always accessible ("... has no submodule ..."). But sometimes they are! It might even make a difference when I (re)import mllaunchpad.

BUT: This might just be due to the difference between attributes and imports in Python. Submodules don't appear to be available immediately as mllaunchpad.submodule, but through import submodule from mllaunchpad.

So if

import mllaunchpad
ds = mllaunchpad.datasources.FileDataSource(...)

does not work, try

from mllaunchpad import datasources
ds = datasources.FileDataSource(...)
