Pycharm cannot find reference `cloud` in "__init__.pyi" for google.cloud, but code does execute

Question

I am using poetry with pyenv to manage dependencies. My pyproject.toml looks as follows:

[tool.poetry]
name = "hello-world"
version = "0.1.0"
description = "None"
authors = ["Hello <foo@bar.com>"]
readme = "README.md"
keywords = []

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
python = ">=3.9,<3.11"
google-cloud = "^0.34.0"
google-cloud-core = "^2.3.2" 
google-cloud-bigquery-datatransfer = "^3.7.1"
google-cloud-bigquery = "^3.3.2"
google-cloud-firestore = "^2.5.2"

[[tool.poetry.source]]
name = "ngt-pypi"
url = "link/to/private/package/abc-python/simple/"
default = false
secondary = true

[build-system]
requires = ["poetry-core>=1.0.0"]
build-backend = "poetry.core.masonry.api"

Assuming pyenv is installed (and using version 3.9.6), I install the dependencies by running:

poetry config virtualenvs.in-project true
poetry install

After this, I confirm that in my interpreter I have the latest versions of the google cloud repositories installed.

Nevertheless, when I try to create a code and import bigquery:

from google.cloud import bigquery

I see on the Pycharm editor that it has not been found. The code however does execute, and there are no errors. What can be done to resolve this issue?

Answer 1

For PyCharm and IntelliJ, you can do the following actions :

• Open the menu file/Project Structure
• Click on SDKs and the plus button

• Click on the Add Python sdk

• Click on the Poetry environment

• It will detect your current Poetry env and create the sdk in PyCharm
• Then in Project settings section, select the sdk created previously

I usually use Pipenv instead of Peoetry but the principle is the same with PyCharm.
