Just some thought. Is it a good idea that if web2py can automatically do this BEFORE accessing an app?
old_syspath=sys.path sys.path.append(os.path.abspath('applications/%s/ modules'%request.application)) try: serve_currect_request() finally: sys.path=old_syspath # So that different app won't mess up their own modules In this way, hopefully app can call third party modules in the usual, simple, straightforward way, like this: import mylib # rather than: import applications.myapp.modules.mylib On Apr23, 11:19am, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: > probably > > import applications.myapp.modules.modulefolder.twitter as twitter > > or better > > exec('import applications.%s.modules.modulefolder.twitter as > twitter' % request.application) > > Massimo > > On 22 Apr, 22:03, Michael <michael.no...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > This makes sense, but do i put the whole folder inside of modules? > > > would i access the library by saying > > > import applications.myapp.modules.modulefolder > > > or > > > import applications.myapp.modules.modulefolder.twitter.py > > > thanks! sorry for being such a newb ;P > > > On Apr 22, 10:02 pm, Iceberg <iceb...@21cn.com> wrote: > > > > I don't know mac, but when using Windows binary (the web2py_win.zip), > > > I can always put 3rd party libraries into web2py/applications/myapp/ > > > modules, then access it, in a slightly different way: > > > > import applications.myapp.modules.third_parti_lib > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
