Replace `from <module> import ...` with `import <module>`
Description
`from <module> import xyz` brought `xyz` into the namespace of the package. One then use this external function/ object without the context of its package. This is considered bad practices in Python.
`import <module>` requires user to write `<module>.xyz` when using function/object. This explicitly states that `xyz` is a function/ object within `<module>`, and not a function/ object in the current Python module.
Environment
Activity
Per discussion with in https://github.com/Sage-Bionetworks/synapsePythonClient/pull/654, we will follow pipenv convention where:
for external imports, use import
if the external import contains sub-module, we will use alias in which . will be replaced with _
for synapseclient imports, we will use relative path with from . imports …
, you are probably most aware about this issue as well. How can i see this is done as the PR above was aborted.
This was the PR that replaced the aborted one https://github.com/Sage-Bionetworks/synapsePythonClient/pull/675/files
, Seeing as you reviewed that PR, you can probably close. Looks fine to me
Was completed by but JIRA wont let me keep her as assignee to close the issue so I'm assigning to myself
