As for the 2nd question the only workaround I found is to use relative
imports, which I want to get rid of.
Let me give you an example. In my collection dir I have the plugins subdir
that has:
plugins
├── httpapi
│ └── sr.py
├── module_utils
│ └── sr.py
└── modules
└── get.py
In my get.py I have to import a class from module_utils, and the full
import path looks like
from
ansible_collections.<namespace>.<collection>.plugins.module_utils.srlinux
import MyClass
How do I make my python instance to resolve this path? I understand that at
runtime ansible does add collections dir to the PYTHONPATH (or something of
sorts), but without running ansible, how do i make my dev environment to
resolve this path?
Thank you all for your help and valuable inputs.
PS. I can solve this with a relative path like
from ..module_utils.sr import MyClass
but I would like to not use relative imports if possible.
