When I try to generate files for protobuf I get error ModuleNotFoundError

When I try to generate files with the command

python -m grpc_tools.protoc -I./ --python_out=. --grpc_python_out=. service.proto

I get error. 

Traceback:
test_client.py:11: in <module>
    from tests.remote.grpc_wrapper.service_pb2_grpc import TestServiceServicer, add_TestServiceServicer_to_server, \
service_pb2_grpc.py:4: in <module>
    import service_pb2 as service__pb2
E   ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'service_pb2'

How can I fix it? I truing reinstall protobuf but it don’t help me. 

pip uninstall protobuf
pip install -U protobuf

P.S. I use conda, I truing use 

conda install protobuf

but it don’t help me too.

There's talk of specifying this at the point of generation in the .proto file in this issue. As far as I know you have two options currently:

1) Change your line 4 to have . in front (this signifies a relative import):

from . import service_pb2 as service__pb2

2) Change the __init__.py file in the "grpc_wrapper" folder to include:

import os
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__)))
