Relative Path for Imports

[frodo23g]

Hello,

I missed some updates for this Plugin for Pycharm and I tried the new Version 0.0.9 from 0.0.3.

I don't know if it is possible to set this anwhere in the Settings, but now the Imports for Library's or Resource's are a little off from the older version.

I have created some Userlibraries in my Project and to import those I have to use relative Path to the Resource

Resource ../Resource/Test.robot

Now with the Version 0.0.9, my Test can't find the Recourse anymore in my IDE. I can use

Resource Test.robot, when it is a unique name, or
Resource Resource/Test.robot

When I execute the Test in my IDE it is working good, but when I want to execute it in a CLI it can't find the Recourse anymore because it wants the Relative Paths.

I hope it is an issue and not something I miss with my settings.

Best Regards and Thanks for this good Plugin :-)

according to robot user guide: https://robotframework.org/robotframework/latest/RobotFrameworkUserGuide.html#resource-files

the resource file is first searched relatively to the directory where the importing file is located.

plugin follows the same rule, please make sure your resource file path is correct.

for the execution issue: plugin is running robot command line under project root folder, and it's also the good practice for manual CLI execution.

Hello,
that is good to know, and thanks for the link.
But I don't think, that its only an issue in my Settings where I have to set my module search path.
I can say, yes you are right, the Plugin works like that.
But Interesting is, that when I change between Versions from 0.0.5 to 0.0.6 and doesn't change anything in my Test and Resources Structure Relative Paths are not Found anymore.

My Testsuite looks like
*** Settings ***
Suite Setup open Tunnel to SauceLabs
Suite Teardown close Tunnel to SauceLabs
Test Setup open Page for Testing
Test Teardown closeClear BroswerSession
Library SeleniumLibrary
Resource ../Resources/Keywords/SauceLabs.robot
Resource ../Resources/Keywords/CommonWeb.robot

*** Variables ***
${searchField} id=search_form_input_homepage
${url} https://duckduckgo.com/

*** Test Cases ***
TC1
Go To ${url}
sleep 10s
Wait Until Element Is Visible ${searchField} #timeout=60s
Input Text ${searchField} This is Entered from Me
Click Element xpath=//input[@id='search_button_homepage']

I will try to change my CLI execution to run in project root folder.

in version 0.0.6 there's a bugfix:

• Incorrect import reference when there are multi python/resource files with the same name

perhaps you have multi kw with same name?

what's your project structure?

something like this?

root
├── Resources
│   └── Keywords
│       └── kw.robot
├── Suite
│   └── TestSuite.robot

[frodo23g]

Yes, my project structure looks like that.

I will check on the naming of my resourcefiles, but at first glance, i dont see any duplicates.

My KW are not duplicated

here's a simple example, I didn't see any problems.

I tried to test it on another Maschine and there I couldn't see the Issue eather...
I don't think it is a OS issue, because my other maschine was Linux and not Windows.

Maybe it is something in my Settings of Pycharm, that it can't find my Resources as a Relative Path.
I will try change some Project Interpreter settings.
When I look in the Interpreter Paths it doesn't show me my Folder where my Project is located. With Version 0.0.5 it can see my Resources with relative Paths, but not with Version 0.1.0, and adding the Path manually doesn't change my issue.

Thanks for your replies and maybe I will find something...

In Your Picture, it looks like that it is working. But on my Side it shows at the Imported Resource a yellow marker:
