If the class we would like to use is written in a different file, then we first need to import using the file name. The file name should be lower case (don’t complain, this is the standard).

Example

When the class we want to use is in the file:

firebase_id_generator.py

We can import class FirebaseIDGenerator using:

from firebase_id_generator.py import FirebaseIDGenerator
