I can't seem to get local_import() importing classes from module files
in the same way 'from X import Y' normally works in Python. Say I
have the following in mymodule.py
def my_func(arg1):
doSomething(arg1)
class my_class(object):
__init__(self):
...etc.
my_class_ref = my_class # Hack explained below
Importing my_func from a controller is fine:
mymodule = local_import('mymodule')
mymodule.my_func(some_arg)
But how can I get a reference to my_class for instantiation? Normal
python importing would allow me to do this:
from mymodule import my_class
my_instance = my_class()
Some kind of similar syntax for local_import() would be helpful. My
current 'Hack' is to add a variable (see "my_class_ref" above).
local_import allows those to be referenced from the imported module.
For example this works:
mymodule = local_import('mymodule')
my_new_class_instance = mymodule.my_class_ref()
Is there something I'm missing? Any recommendations appreciated.
