blockblobservice

[dakke]

Hi,

The following import of BlockBlobService

from azure.storage.blob import BlockBlobService

yields the error message: ImportError: cannot import name 'BlockBlobService' from 'azure.storage.blob'

The only working solution I found was to change to an older version of "azure-storage-blob"
pip install azure-storage-blob==2.1.0

Anyway, my questions is:

Is this error caused by a bug in latest version of "azure-storege-blob" or has 'BlockBlobService' been removed by intention?
If 'BlockBlobService' has been removed by intention: Is there any replacement?
There is multiple ways to do import, compared to above example importing BlockBlobService can be done by:

import azure.storage.blob.blockblobservice

Does it matter how BlockBlobService is imported (is both examples correct)?

Thank you

No the have just changed the packing structure,so now do you call it as shown in there documentation.
Quick test.

>>> from azure.storage.blob import BlobServiceClient

>>> BlobServiceClient.api_version
<property object at 0x077960F0>

>>> help(BlobServiceClient.api_version)
Help on property:

    The version of the Storage API used for requests.

    :type: str

>>> import azure.storage.blob.blockblobservice
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'azure.storage.blob.blockblobservice'

There is still a way to do the older call but the have put _ which mean that should not mess with it.

>>> import azure.storage.blob._blob_service_client

# Do this trix
>>> blob = azure.storage.blob._blob_service_client.BlobServiceClient

>>> blob.api_version
<property object at 0x0916D420>


>>> help(blob.api_version)
Help on property:

    The version of the Storage API used for requests.

    :type: str

But come to same place,so now use first one as they updated in package and documentation.
