Nmt: Why did I download the source code and display the following error：from . import inference ImportError: cannot import name 'inference'

you should run this command: python -m nmt.nmt --xxxxxxxx, instead python nmt/nmt.py

I also try this: python -m nmt.nmt --xxxxxxxx\
--src=vi --tgt=en \
--vocab_prefix=/tmp/nmt_data/vocab \
--train_prefix=/tmp/nmt_data/train \
--dev_prefix=/tmp/nmt_data/tst2012 \
--test_prefix=/tmp/nmt_data/tst2013 \
--out_dir=/tmp/nmt_model \
--num_train_steps=12000 \
--steps_per_stats=100 \
--num_layers=2 \
--num_units=128 \
--dropout=0.2 \
--metrics=bleu
But it gives Error as:
* from . import inference
ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package
*

From what location within the directory structure are you running this command? I encountered the same issue when I ran it one level too deep (in the 'nmt' directory). Try running it from the same directory where you find the README.md. That solved the problem for me.
