Utility for adding new import paths.

🐵
importmonkey

       

An utility for adding new import paths to
make your relative import work without hassle.

pip install importmonkey

What does it do?

Here is your repository:

├─ src
│   └─ project
│       ├─ __init__.py
│       └─ module.py
└─ test
    └─ test.py

test.py can't find module.py:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'module'
ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package
SystemError: Parent module '' not loaded, cannot perform relative import

importmonkey will fix that:

from importmonkey import add_path  # In test.py
add_path("../src")
import project

Why?

Sometimes you want a specific repo structure to test and build a package from the same files so you need a relative / sibling / parent import.
