+#### Directive: `python_root`:
+
+Set this directive within the Bazel package that you want to use as the Python root.
+For example, if using a `src` dir (as recommended by the [Python Packaging User
+Guide][python-packaging-user-guide]), then set this directive in `src/BUILD.bazel`:
+
+```starlark
+# ./src/BUILD.bazel
+# Tell gazelle that are python root is the same dir as this Bazel package.
+# gazelle:python_root
+```
+
+Note that the directive does not have any arguments.
+
+Gazelle will then add the necessary `imports` attribute to all targets that it
+generates:
+
+```starlark
+# in ./src/foo/BUILD.bazel
+py_libary(
+    ...
+    imports = [".."],  # Gazelle adds this
+    ...
+)
+
+# in ./src/foo/bar/BUILD.bazel
+py_libary(
+    ...
+    imports = ["../.."],  # Gazelle adds this
+    ...
+)
+```

 Python source files are those ending in `.py` but not ending in `_test.py`.
