python import a local package

I have trouble to import a local package. The code from github has below structure.

/ProjectA
/ProjectA/algorithms/...
/ProjectA/local_packages/internal-python3.zip
/ProjectA/example.py

The zip file contains internal.py, setup.py, etc....

When I run the example.py, it gives an ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'interval' at below line of script

from interval import Interval

Any idea to solve this issue? Thanks in advance!

First make sure you have unzipped the file. After that if you want to make a specific folder into a local package, inside the desired folder you need to create a file named init.py It can me a blank file

So in the case of interval folder, you need to have /interval/init.py
