I Can't Import Xml.dom.minidom In Pycharm. What Could I Try?

I'm trying to import xml.dom.minidom but pycharm doesn't find it, altough it finds xml.entree / xml.parser / xml.sax. The rest of the standart libraries work all fine. The xml file

Solution 1:

I faced the same problem after upgrading to 2020.1. The problem is already reported in the Pycharm issue tracker.

There they propose the following workaround until the issue is fixed:

Replace xml directory in <INSTALLATION_FOLDER>\plugins\python(-ce)\helpers\typeshed\stdlib\2and3\ with xml from https://github.com/python/typeshed/tree/master/stdlib/2and3/xml

On my machine this solved the problem.

Solution 2:

My recommendation is to just put the following around the imports until Pycharm fixes the bug.

# noinspection PyUnresolvedReferencesfrom xml.dom.minidom import Document
# noinspection PyUnresolvedReferencesfrom xml.dom.minidom import Element

Solution 3:

Now it is fixed. I am using 2021.1
