ImportError: cannot import name 'view' from 'poll' (C:\Users\Learner\projects\poll_project\poll\__init__.py)

Please find the project folder screenshot below.

Can someone please help me where iam going wrong ???

Answer 1

The import statement should be like

If want to import specific view

from poll.views import <nameoftheview> as poll_views

Or if you want to import all the views

import poll.views as poll_views

Update: Correct error in your urls.py (also pointed out by @sheraram)

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('create/', poll_views.create, name='create'),
    path('vote/<poll_id>', poll_views.vote, name='vote'),
    path('results/<poll_id>', poll_views.results, name='results'),
    path('', poll_views.home,name='home'),
]

Answer 2

url takes following argument path(route, view, name{optional}) but you are giving path(route.view, name)

replace . after route by ,
