• What is the current behavior? When running project with graphene-django installed I get the following error:

• If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem via a github repo, https://repl.it or similar (you can use this template as a starting point: https://repl.it/@jkimbo/Graphene-Django-Example).

• What is the expected behavior?

Project starting without errors.

• Please tell us about your environment:

  • Version:

    graphene: 3.0b7
    graphene-django: 3.0.0b7
    graphql-core: 3.1.5
    graphql-relay: 3.1.0
    

  • Platform: Linux

Can you please try the latest version of graphene-django, and if the error persists, provide detailed steps to reproduce the issue?

I think you've got a python circular import in the files you define your schema (perhaps we need a better error message for this). Rather than importing a type, you can use the string path to that type, e.g from app.types import MyType => app.types.MyType
