Hi everyone, I need to implement custom import hooks for an application (http:// www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0302/). I want to restrict an application to import certain modules (say socket module). Google app engine is using a module hook to do this (HardenedModulesHook in google/ appengine/tools/dev_appserver.py). But I want to allow that application to use an sdk module (custom) which imports and uses socket module. But the module hook restricts the access by sdk. Finding out, which file is importing a module give a solution?? ie. If the application is importing socket module, I want to restrict it. But if the sdk module is importing socket I want to allow it. Is there any way I can do this ?
Application ======== import sdk import socket # I dont want to allow this (need to raise ImportError) SDK ==== import socket # need to allow this -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
