Hi Developers, We’ve been seeing some issues in certain environments where our Python global imports aren’t working. On the surface, executing the imports in a clean Python shell works, but when the agent code gets executed, we’re hit with a bunch of NameErrors for the imports that Python can’t find.
Moving forward, please do not use import *. Instead, we should all be using explicit imports of each module/class that the Python script depends on. One pattern that is especially bad is from resource_management import * When working on an existing file that includes a * import, please change this to explicit imports. Let’s be diligent in our code reviews as well. If you see a * import, flag it as an issue so that we can work toward eliminating this from the codebase. Thanks, - Jonathan
