Fix PyLint error, unable to import frappe in VS Code

Published July 30, 20211 min readMarkdown

Assuming that your project root directory is inside /apps/ and that's also where frappe app is located. create a .env file in your project root directory and then add

PYTHONPATH=../frappe # your unresolved module path

Open your VS Code settings.json and add this line. This assumes that the open folder in vs code is your app.

"python.envFile": "${workspaceFolder}/.env"

If you don't want to push your .env to Github open .gitignore in the project root folder and add .env on a new line.
