hey, found something poking at

kedro new

. if you name a project after a stdlib module (tried

email

and

json

), it scaffolds fine but

kedro run

then dies with

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'email.pipeline_registry'

because the package name collides with stdlib. settings.py also gets silently ignored (No settings.py found even though its right there). attached a couple screenshots: one shows the ModuleNotFound even though pipeline_registry.py was created and exists, vs a normally named project (

controltest

) which gets past that line and just gives the expected no nodes ValueError. Parameters passed all tools, no example pipelines looks like the name validation in starters.py only checks the character set, not python keywords or stdlib names, so its specifically the collision. worth a github issue? happy to put up a fix adding a keyword/stdlib check if youd take it 🙂

Hi Rudra, this is an interesting case. Feel free to open an issue.

my pleasure ! have also closed in on a fix, will be opening a pr also shortly, thx for the confirmation.

Thank you for the contribution @Rudra Dudhat.
