Hi everyone,
Being new to Nim and coming from Python, I often find myself struggling with
imports.
For example, I play with the asynchttpserver module of the standard library,
and I don't know how to properly import it.
**Solution 1** :
Everything is imported, but is it OK to import/pollute the namespace with
procedures/types that I don't use ? Does it makes binaries bigger at the end ?
import asynchttpserver
Run
**Solution 2** :
Import only what's needed, but it is a bit verbose and you often forget to
import operator procedure and the compiler is not happy about it.
from asynchttpserver import HttpCode
echo HttpCode(200) != HttpCode(404)
Run
By the way, how do you import operator procedures (like ==) ? Is it possible to
import an operator procedure for a specific type ?
from asynchttpserver import `==`
Run
Does it import all == procedures ?
**Extra** :
Is there a way to import all procedures related to a specific type ? In python,
when you import a class, you have access to all its methods / variables as they
are defined within the class.
Have a nice sunday 🌤️
