Python3.8.14:ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'commerce' - docker-compose

Question

I'm building a Django project where project 1 is the core with Django project 2 inside it as as a feature. Project 2 is added as an app called mycommerce.
The objective is to have a common settings.py,urls.py,wsgi,manage.py for ease of use just like in a typical Django project. The necessary code from the above 4 .py files from project 2 has been added to project 1., keeping other aspects as is.
However, I'm getting an error when I'm building my docker container which while building is executing a script call setup.py on Ubuntu 22.04. This is where the error occurs.
error: subprocess-exited-with-error
× python setup.py egg_info did not run successfully.

The setup.py lines of code which throw the error :

import os

from setuptools import find_packages, setup
PROJECT_DIR = os.path.dirname(__file__)
sys.path.append(os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR, 'src'))
from commerce import get_version # noqa isort:skip -----> Line 18 in the error trace
My project structure :
myapp
|- __init__.py
|- manage.py
|- .docker
| |-commerce
| |-docker
| |-setup.py
|- docker-compose.yml
|- docker-compose.env
|- auth
|- posts
|- mycommerce
| |-src
| |-commerce
| |- __init__.py
| |- config.py
| |- defaults.py
| |-sandbox
| |- __init__.py
| |-manage.py
|-__init__.py
|- static
|- templates
|- .env
The init file in the project structure inside commerce folder is what the setup.py is trying to call while building the docker container. I have an understanding that this has to do with appending the path for setup.py to execute successfully. But its not working.
The init.py file inside which get_version() is called:
# Use 'alpha', 'beta', 'rc' or 'final' as the 4th element to indicate release type.
VERSION = (3, 2, 0, 'alpha', 2)
def get_short_version():
return '%s.%s' % (VERSION[0], VERSION[1])
def get_version():
version = '%s.%s' % (VERSION[0], VERSION[1])
# Append 3rd digit if > 0
if VERSION[2]:
version = '%s.%s' % (version, VERSION[2])
elif VERSION[3] != 'final':
mapping = {'alpha': 'a', 'beta': 'b', 'rc': 'c'}
version = '%s%s' % (version, mapping[VERSION[3]])
if len(VERSION) == 5:
version = '%s%s' % (version, VERSION[4])
return version
The docker file :
FROM python:3.8.14
ENV PYTHONUNBUFFERED 1
RUN curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | bash -
RUN apt-get install -y nodejs
COPY requirements.txt /requirements.txt
RUN pip3 install -r /requirements.txt
RUN groupadd -r django && useradd -r -g django django

WORKDIR /opt/myapp/mycommerce/sandbox
CMD ["python", "manage.py", "runserver", "0.0.0.0:85","uwsgi --ini uwsgi.ini"]
EXPOSE 85
I'm using the following repo for commerce aspect of my django project.
https://github.com/django-oscar/django-oscar
However I have moved the docker file and other files like setup.py, make file and manifest file to my .docker(see project structure) folders which have other containers to enable docker related files to be in one place.
The core issue is I have 2 manage.py - one in the root folder-myapp and one inside the commerce folder which is a django-oscar project in itself. I have copied contents of settings.py of django-oscar to the core socialapp settings.py and done the same for urls as well. However other files are interlinked which I don't wish to move right away. I just need docker to find the manage.py command to execute the script.I tried pointing to the root-manage.py but it still doesn't work. I'm missing something which I cant figure.
