Does pyright detect the conditional dependencies when linting?

[kemingy]

I need to use importlib.resources.files in my project, which is added in Python 3.9. For compatibility, I added "importlib_resources >= 5.10; python_version < '3.12'" to my pyproject file.

But pyright keep reporting the files cannot be found in the importlib.resources since the pythonVersion = "3.8".

I'd like to know if pyright can detect the conditional dependencies.

The typeshed stub file for the importlib.resources module indicates that files is available for Python 3.9 and newer. See this link for details.

If pyright indicates that it can't find the files symbol, that's probably because you've configured it to assume Python 3.8 or older. By default, python will use the Python version from the python environment you've configured from the command-line shell. Type python3 --version to see the version of the active python environment. If it's not what you're expecting, then activate the intended python environment before running pyright.
