Problem description

I uploaded a package called example_package_xyz-uncontactable to TestPyPi and installed it with the pip command in this section.

However, I was not able to find a correct way to type the package name to import it.

Error message

No response

The package name you use is independent from the names of the modules or packages that are installed.

What name did you use inside the src directory (from the step https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/tutorials/packaging-projects/#a-simple-project) ? For that, the Python rules about importable modules apply: hyphens are not possible, only letters numbers underscores.

Thanks for the quick reply! I'm sorry I guess I missed that part of the instructions. I'll try the package name in the morning.
