`import using` or `import hiding` in Idris2 - import

I'd like to import Control.App into a module that refers to PrimIO.PrimIO via the unqualified name PrimIO in a lot of places. The problem, of course, is that Control.App also exports a definition named PrimIO. I would like to minimize the damage by importing either only App or everything but PrimIO from Control.App; i.e. what one would do with import Control.App (App) or import Control.App hiding (PrimIO) in Haskell.
What is the Idris2 way of doing this?

Based on #michaelmesser's comment, I was able to get this working with the following:
import Control.App
%hide Control.App.PrimIO
However, this doesn't give me a good way of explicitly referring to Control.App.PrimIO when I do need to refer to it.

I cant import another file

I can't import a file in Pycharm.
I use this code:
import useful_tools
This is the error:
Unused import statement, this inspection detects names that should resolve but don't. Due to dynamic dispatch and duck typing, this is possible in a limited but useful number of cases. Top level and class level items are supported better than instance items
The warning means you did not uses useful_tools in the code after the import. It will work in runtime, but it's useless if PyCharm is not mistaken of course. Please provide the whole script code, as it's hard to tell more.

TypeScript Types without importing classes?

I'm about to try implementing some IoC/DI framework in our application (thinking of Inversify, if there are any other recommendations) but we still have the problem of having to include the files for their Types. How do we get around this? We're using the latest version of TypeScript (2.3 as of writing this).
We have a lot of imports for various types, for example:
// Components
import {GuideTime} from '../components/guide-time/guide-time.component';
import {GuideNetwork} from '../components/guide-network/guide-network.component';
import {GuideDetail} from '../components/guide-detail/guide-detail.component';
import {Player} from '../components/player/player.component';
// Services
import {Keys, KeyService} from '../core/services/key.service';
import {GuideService} from '../core/services/guide/guide.service';
import {afterCSSUpdate} from '../core/services/utility.service';
import {DataService} from '../core/services/data/data.service';
Or just to get the type of something:
import {ITitle} from '../../models/title.interface';
import {IGuide} from '../../models/guide.interface';
Is there a way to consolidate these (preferably automatically, or globally)? I realize I can probably make a mytypes.ts file somewhere and then just import and export all the types from our application so there's a single, central file to import, but that introduces other problems (and a lot of work).
Thanks!
To make all of these global you would need to import them all to a single interface, and then import that interface wherever you need access to every type. Something similar to
import * as mainInterface from 'MainInterface'
Additionally, you could try importing for side effects only (which would give you access to the types), although this is not recommended in practice.
From the documentation:
Though not recommended practice, some modules set up some global state that can be used by other modules. These modules may not have any exports, or the consumer is not interested in any of their exports. To import these modules, use: import "./my-module.js";
EDIT Additionally, similar to the above single interface solution, you can put each of the types into the same namespace. You can spread a namespace across multiple files using this approach, which means you can just wrap each type in a main namespace.
namespace MainNamespace {
export class GuideTime {
...
}
...
}

matlab: cannot import package

Probably a basic mistake, but the cause is eluding me. I am trying to import a package, but I get an error saying it cannot be found or imported.
First I set the current directory to the parent directory of the package, and this does not work.
Second, the docs say that the parent folder of the package must be added to the matlab path. I tried this, and still no luck.
It is not due to using plot as the package name as I get the same error when trying to import analysis.
What I can do is to import using: import plot.* or import analyse.* and then go on to use the functions in the packages, but I want to use the namespaces (i.e. not use .*).
Edit
I'm having this problem on both versions I have installed: 2015b and 2016a.
The answer is that, somewhat counterintuitively, you don't need to call import at all. The docs state that
The parent of the top-level package folder must be on the MATLAB path.
Which is what your addpath(pwd) does and then state that (emphasis is mine):
All references to packages, functions, and classes in the package must
use the package name prefix, unless you import the package.
Meaning at this stage you should be able to call
analyse.testFunc
If you were to import analyse.testFunc you would then be able to call testFunc without prefacing it with the namespace but since you want to retain the namespace the answer is to not call import at all.

Is it possible to automatically import other packages in the caller's namespace?

If a user imports:
com.my.package
Is it possible for me to do something in my package, so that another package gets imported as well? For example, I'd like to have java.io be automatically imported.
No, it is not possible. However, you can create a package object and put type definitions in it, so that you'll get aliases for classes you think are relevant.

Why "import javax.jdo.* "caused error?

I have a class uses the following lines, it works fine in a Google App Engine project:
import javax.jdo.annotations.IdGeneratorStrategy;
import javax.jdo.annotations.IdentityType;
import javax.jdo.annotations.PersistenceCapable;
import javax.jdo.annotations.Persistent;
import javax.jdo.annotations.PrimaryKey;
But when I included this class in another project, it cause error :
package javax.jdo.annotations does not exist
What should I do to find javax.jdo.* ?
Add the JDO jar file to the class path.
The star notation for imports isn't working the way you think it does.
It's not recursive - it only applies the child classes in javax.jdo, not the child packages.
If you want all the classes in javax.jdo.annotations, you'll need to import javax.jdo.annotations.*, too.
I'd recommend not using the star notation. Better to type out the imports for every class individually. Use an IDE to help you. It's clearer for you and other programmers who come after you where those classes came from.
