lib-programname 2.0.3

get reliably the name of the executed script

lib_programname

Version v2.0.3 as of 2022-03-25 see Changelog

Finding the name of the program from which a Python module is running can be trickier than it would seem at first, so lets make it damned easy. This works under pycharm, pytest, pytest-docrunner, uwsgi, dreampie etc. correctly.

You might dive into Dough Hellmans article about that issue.

$> python -m pip install lib_programname
$> python
>>> import lib_programname
>>> path_to_program = lib_programname.get_path_executed_script()    # type: pathlib.Path
