Newbie python error in regards to import
- by TylerW
Hello. I'm a python newbie and starting out with using the Bottle web framework on Google App Engine. I've been messing with the super small, super easy Hello World sample and have already ran into problems. Heh. I finally got the code to work with this...
import bottle
from bottle import route
from google.appengine.ext.webapp import util
@route('/hello')
def hello():
return "Hello World!"
util.run_wsgi_app(bottle.default_app())
My question is, I thought I could just go 'import bottle' without the second line. But if I take the second line out, I get a NameError. Or if I do 'from bottle import *', I still get the error. bottle is just a single file called 'bottle.py' in my site's root directory. So neither of these work....
import bottle
from google.appengine.ext.webapp import util
@route('/hello')
def hello():
return "Hello World!"
util.run_wsgi_app(bottle.default_app())
Or
from bottle import *
from google.appengine.ext.webapp import util
@route('/hello')
def hello():
return "Hello World!"
util.run_wsgi_app(bottle.default_app())
The error message I get is...
Traceback (most recent call last):

So am I wrong in thinking it should be able to work the other ways or no?
