[FIXED] in VS Code ImportError: cannot import name 'Mapping' from 'collections'

Issue

I am trying to connect to Postgress and create a folder test.db via Flask. When I run "python3" in the terminal and from there when I run "from app import db" I get an import error:

ImportError: cannot import name 'Mapping' from 'collections' (/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/lib/python3.10/collections/__init__.py)

I have tried all the troubleshooting but none of them worked. Please advise. Here is the full stack: full stack error

Solution

As Mitra said above, change:

from collections import Mapping

to

from collections.abc import Mapping
