ImportError: cannot import name 'APIClient' / running problem on python 3.6

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

I was trying to use the test containers with django in order to set-up postgres db for tests. Unfortunately when I try to setup db according the documentation:

    postgres_container = PostgresContainer("postgres:9.5")
    with postgres_container as postgres:
        e = sqlalchemy.create_engine(postgres.get_connection_url())
        result = e.execute("select version()")

I receive the following error:

  File ".virtualenv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/conf/__init__.py", line 110, in __init__
    mod = importlib.import_module(self.SETTINGS_MODULE)
  File "/usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.6.3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/importlib/__init__.py", line 126, in import_module

  File ".virtualenv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/docker/models/containers.py", line 3, in <module>
    from ..api import APIClient
ImportError: cannot import name 'APIClient'

I’m using Python 3.6.3 and testcontainers 2.1.0. Do you know what could make a problem?

Thx

@pnowy, you say I was trying to use the test containers with django in order to set-up postgres db for tests, however, your code example uses SQLAlchemy: sqlalchemy.create_engine(postgres.get_connection_url()).

Did you get testcontainters-python working with Django and can you describe how? Getting Django settings configured properly with testcontainters-python seems quite tricky to me.
