Hey all, I'm totally confusing myself about importing modules. I think the
root of my problem is I didn't wrong before I learned how to do it right.
Live and learn, right? But now I seem to be in a tangled mess.
For background, in my controller, report.py, I have a a function called
result and in it i'm importing "my_module" like so:
def result():
import my_module
My issue is I have no idea where it's getting that module. I've added the
following:
import os.path
print os.path.abspath(my_module.__file__)
and i see that it's importing from ".../web2py/my_module.py" (which I know
is terrible). But if i delete my_module from .../web2py/, nothing happens.
I'd expect it to break the app but it keeps on running and keeps on telling
me it's importing the module from that very place where it now no longer
exists.
What concept(s) am I missing here? At this point I feel like I just need to
delete my_module.py from everywhere I can find it, put it in the modules
folder in my app, and go on. However, I'm not convinced that will fix my
issues.
Thanks in advance.
