New submission from Lukáš Němec: Hello,
recently I filed this bugreport to Django, but they clarified this by pointing me to commits for new version of Django that uses python builtin importlib (import_module) But since most of their import_module code is done like [import_module(x) for y if blahblah], it is very difficult for me to debug code where Django tries to import some package, and all I get back is message "relative imports require the 'package' argument" This message tells me exactly nothing :), just that something somewhere, even 3rd party app tried to do relative imports ... what did it import, with what parameters? I edited this locally for debugging, and changed it to this: "relative imports require the 'package' argument, package: %s" % name This simple change of the message allowed me to find the problem in a few seconds.. Would you please consider adding something similar to importlib for better debugging? Thank you :) ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 193922 nosy: Lukáš.Němec priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Importlib, more verbosity please type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18598> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
