A python package to import files from an adjacent folder

Project description

EasyImports

About

EasyImports is a python package that allows users to easily access and import files from sister folders:
f.ex:

- Project
    - Folder 1
        -main.py
    - Folder 2
        -userpackage1.py
        -other_stuff.py
    - My Folder 
        -important_package.py

if you would try to import anything in main.py that isn't in Folder 1 you'll get an error.
F.ex:

in main.py

import userpackage1
from Folder 2 import other_stuff.py
import My Folder.important_package.py

=> Each of these will throw a ModuleNotFoundError With EasyImports this can be fixed.

Installing

To install EasyImports:

pip install EasyImports

Loading Imports

Inside main.py, type the following code:

from EasyImports import easyimports
easyimports.loadImports()

Now, you can just import the files userpackage1.py, other_stuff.py and important_package.py like you would normally:

#import EasyImports and load sister files
from EasyImports import easyimports
easyimports.loadImports()

#import files
import userpackage1
import other_stuff
import important_package

#alternatively, you can also do
import userpackage1, other_stuff, important_package

Pylance error

Sometimes, Pylance can throw a warning: Import "package" could not be resolved
this isn't problematic, as the program will still run without issues, but it may be visually annoying
you can fix this by ignoring the Pylance error:\

#import EasyImports and load sister files
from EasyImports import easyimports
easyimports.loadImports()

#import files and ignore warning 
import userpackage1 #type: ignore
