Flair: No module named 'flair.embeddings'; 'flair' is not a package

[sahand91]

I've just installed flair and getting this error when writing "from flair.embeddings import WordEmbeddings". I'm using anaconda 3.7 flair 0.4.1 and pytorch 1.0.1 version

Hello @sahand91 did you install in a virtual environment - if so, are you executing the code from this environment?

Closing for now, but feel free to reopen if you have more questions!

Hi @ramreddymettu, did you install flair via pip, or did you install it from source (via pip install -e .)? Do you use a virtual environment btw 🤔

@alanakbik I am getting following error when trying to import flair.

(venv) ds@thinker:~/Documents/flair$ python
Python 3.6.8 (default, Oct  7 2019, 12:59:55)

I am using virtualenv and I am positively importing this while the environment is activated.

(venv) ds@thinker:~/Documents/flair$ pip freeze | grep flair
flair==0.4.4

Getting the same error when trying to execute a python script.

Getting the same error when trying to execute a python script.

I found my file's name is flair.py.
Renaming helped me solve this problem.

The problem was that I named my python file "flair.py" just like @jinlukang1, renaming it solved the issue :)

Me too same problem "File name == 'flair.py' ", changing it fixes the issue. This issue should be closed I think @alanakbik ?
