Hi, i try to write a plugin system that i want to use to let users extend a module that i write.
Within the module there is an extension loader that loads an extension module. This extension module should be able to import modules from my system, which provides some extensions. Basically, this here works but gives a warning: RuntimeWarning: Parent module 'ext_abc' not found while handling absolute import Below are the files, i wonder what is wrong. It would be great if anybody could give me a hint, what provokes that warning? Best regards, Torsten. FILE psys.py: import mymodule.ext_loader import sys import os.path here = os.path.abspath('.') mpath = os.path.abspath('mymodule') epath = os.path.abspath('extension') sys.path.append(here) sys.path.append(mpath) mymodule.ext_loader.load('ext_abc') FILE mymodule/__init__.py: __all__ = ['base', 'ext_loader'] FILE mymodule/ext_loader.py: import imp import os.path def search_file(fname): for e in ['extension']: candidate = os.path.join(os.path.expanduser(e), fname) if os.path.exists(candidate): return candidate return None def load(modname): fname = modname + ".py" abname = search_file(fname) fd = open(abname, "rb") mod = imp.load_module(fname, fd, abname, ['py', 'r', imp.PY_SOURCE]) fd.close() FILE mymodule/base.py: def func1(): print "func1 called !"
