Using Inline Python to import Python vars

[Chris Nighswonger]

I seem to be misunderstanding something about importing Python package vars
with Inline. I'm thinking it may be some syntax problem.

This code returns the value of __version__ as expected:

use Inline Python => "from pykota.version import __version__; print
__version__;";



However, this code borks:

use Inline  Python      => 'DATA',
            DIRECTORY   => '/usr/share/webmin/pykota/.Inline/',
            NAME        => 'PyKota::Test';

print pykota_version();
1;

__DATA__

__Python__

def pykota_version():
    from pykota.version import __version__
    return __version__


The error is:

  File "<string>", line 3
    from pykota.version import
                              ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Error -- py_eval raised an exception at
/usr/local/lib/perl/5.14.2/Inline/Python.pm line 177.
INIT failed--call queue aborted.

Kind Regards,
