Hello everybody,
I thought perhaps we could allow the usage of a "new" keyword to
instanciate an object, ie:
obj = new yourmodule.YourClass()
In this case, it would behave the same as from yourmodule import
YourClass; obj = YourClass(), except that it wouldn't need to be
imported. This would also eliminate the need to manage an import list
at the beginning of a script in most case.
If you really want this (untested):
def autoload(mod, cls, *args, **kwargs):
from mod import cls
The make the above work with variables:
import importlib # put at top of file
mod = importlib.import_module(mod)
cls = mod.getattr(cls)
return cls(*args, **kwargs)
obj = autoload(yourmodule, YourClass)
