Import "rospkg" could not be resolved

Question

Hello,

I am using VSCode as IDE for my ROS projects. Everything works well, but when I try to import rospkg, VSCode underlines it with a yellow line and shows warning message: "Import "rospkg" could not be resolved". When I try to run node with this import, rospkg works fine, so problem is only with syntax in VSCode.

Do you know how to solve it?

I have the paths mentioned in the first link, but that doesn't help. The second link is about the C++ library that is not my case. I should also say that other python imports like rospy, roslaunch, rosnode are not underlined.

Hello @Ivan4815162342,

I think that you have not updated the python interpreter path in VS code.

When I try to run node with this import, rospkg works fine.

In your terminal, you have to type which python then you will get the path of your interpreter.

Now, press Ctrl+Shift+P in VS code and click on Select Interpreter. Try to set the path that you got from your terminal as a python path. I think it will work and solve your problem.

If you are facing issue or any problem feel free to drop commet. I hope it helps!
