Hi all,
I'm new to python, and am trying to determine if it's possible to do
the following...
I have a directory structure like this, with both 'dir1' and 'dir2' in
my PYTHONPATH
dir1/
foo/
__init__.py
a.py
b.py
dir2/
foo/
__init__.py
a.py
c.py
I'd like to be able to:
python> import foo.a, foo.b, foo.c
I'd hope for package 'foo.a' to come from dir1 since it was first on
the path, with 'foo.b' and 'foo.c' coming form dir1 and dir2
respectively.
I understand that python stops once it encounters the first 'foo'
package in PYTHONPATH, but I was wondering if there was a way around
this. I've had some success modifying __path__ in the foo/__init__.py
files, but am unsure if this is the best approach. Perhaps there's a
way to do this with import hooks?
Is there a precedent for this type of thing?
Thanks in advance,
Josh
