If you want a solution that gives you an actual module object, here's what I use: def make_module_from_file(module_name, file_name): """ Make a new module object from the code in specified file """ from types import ModuleType module = ModuleType(module_name) module_file = open(file_name, 'r') exec module_file in module.__dict__ return module -- \ "A celebrity is one who is known by many people he is glad he | `\ doesn't know." -- Henry L.
