How to find full module path of a class to import in other file
- by Pooya
I have method that returns module path of given class name
def findModulePath(path, className):
attributes = []
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(path):
for source in (s for s in files if s.endswith(".py")):
name = os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(source))[0]
full_name = os.path.splitext(source)[0].replace(os.path.sep, '.')
m = imp.load_module(full_name, *imp.find_module(name, [root]))
try:
attr = getattr(m, className)
attributes.append(attr)
except:
pass
if len(attributes) <= 0:
raise Exception, "Class %s not found" % className
for element in attributes:
print "%s.%s" % (element.__module__, className)
but it does not return the full path of the module,
For example I have a python file named "objectmodel" in objects package,and it contains a Model class, So I call findModulePath(MyProjectPath,"Model"). it prints objectmodel.Model but I need objects.objectmodel.Model
