Hi,
I have a collection of Python scripts I'm using to load various bits of data
into a database.
I'd like to move some of the common functions (e.g. to setup loggers, reading
in configuration etc.) into a common file, and import them from there.
I've created empty __init__.py files, and my current directory structure looks
something like this:
foo_loading/
__init__.py
common/
common_foo.py
em_load/
__init__.py
config.yaml
sync_em.py
pg_load/
__init__.py
config.yaml
sync_pg.py
So from within the sync_em.py script, I'm trying to import a function from
foo_loading/common/common_foo.py.
from ..common.common_foo import setup_foo_logging
I get the error:
ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package
If I change directories to the parent of "foo_loading", then run
python -m foo_loading.em_load.sync_em sync_em.py
it works. However, this seems a bit roundabout, and I suspect I'm not doing
things correctly.
Ideally, I want a user to be able to just run sync_em.py from it's own
directory, and have it correctly import the logging/config modules from
common_foo.py, and just work.
What is the correct way to achieve this?
Secondly, if I want to move all of the config.yaml files to a common
foo_loading/config.yaml, or even foo_loading/config/config.yaml, what is the
correct way to access this from within the scripts? Should I just be using
"../", or is there a better way?
Cheers,
Victor
