Ever wished for a cleaner, better, simpler wait to call main()?

Do you enjoy abusing the import system?

Well, today’s your lucky day!

Just import unmain and we’ll do the dirty work for you!

import unmain

def main():
    print("Hello, unmain!")

Wow!

Installation & Usage

Installing and using unmain is easy!

1. Install

   pip install unmain

2. Import

   import unmain

That’s it! Unmain will find your main() function and call it for you.

Practical Considerations

Unmain abuses the import system to re-import your main module, then running main() from it. To avoid running global code twice - pleace import unmain at the top of your script file. Any code above the import location will be executed twice.

Additionally, the entire module will execute before main() is run. You can place your main() function anywhere in your script file.
