Why doesn’t Python allow modules to have a __call__ method? (Beyond the obvious that it wouldn’t be easy to import directly.) Specifically, why doesn’t using a(b) syntax find the __call__ attribute like it does for functions, classes, and objects? (Is lookup just incompatibly different for modules?)
Given a string of a Python class, e.g. my_package.my_module.MyClass, what is the best possible way to load it?
I have a directory full of scripts (let’s say project/bin). I also have a library located in project/lib and want the scripts to automatically load it. This is what I normally use at the top of each script:
I’ve run into a problem with having imports in __init__.py and using import as with absolute imports in modules of the package.
I am trying to run a module from the console. The structure of my directory is this:
In Python, if you want to programmatically import a module, you can do:
I know this question has been asked multiple times. I have read through all of them but could not resolve my issue.The following is my directory structure.
I am very new to PyDev and Python, though I have used Eclipse for Java plenty. I am trying to work through some of the Dive Into Python examples and this feels like an extremely trivial problem that’s just becoming exceedingly annoying. I am using Ubuntu Linux 10.04.
Does it re-import every time the function is run?
Edit: based on a Ulf Rompe’s comment, it is important you use “1” instead of “0”, otherwise you will break sys.path.
