pytest plugin for adding to the PYTHONPATH from command line or configs.

Project description

pytest-pythonpath

NOTE: This plugin is obsolete as of pytest 7.0.0. Thanks to this PR from Brian Okken, you can now modify the PYTHONPATH using the pythonpath configuration option. See documentation here: https://docs.pytest.org/en/7.0.x/reference/reference.html#confval-pythonpath

This is a py.test plugin for adding to the PYTHONPATH from the pytests.ini file before tests run.

Installation

Install with pip::

pip install pytest-pythonpath

Uninstall with pip::

pip uninstall pytest-pythonpath

Usage

Add a line in your pytest.ini file with a key of python_paths and provide a space seperated list of paths you want inserted to the beginning of the PYTHONPATH before any tests run:

[pytest]
python_paths = your/path/apps your/path/libs

If you'd like to have .pth files be processed too, use site_dirs instead:

[pytest]
site_dirs = your/path/apps your/path/libs

This will cause the addsitedir function to be called on each path instead of a simple sys.path.insert(0, path). Note that using the site_dirs will not place your specified paths in front of existing paths.

Once this is added to your pytest.ini, you can use the py.test command as you normally would.
