Setting Env Python Path at run time


I have my code in the below structure

Folder Libs:
init.py

import lib1
import lib2
import lib3

Folder Tests

import sys
import os
sys.path.append(os.path.abspath('../Libs'))

import lib1

I get the error lib1 not found, any idea what could be wrong? the sys.path.append should have included the folder Libs to the path and so the library lib1, lib2 & lib3 should have ideally be included. Not sure why its not recognized. Any suggestion please?

You may try the following knowing that ClassNameLib1 and ClassNameLib2 are the names of the classes in the lib1_file and lib2_file files containing those classes placed in the lib1 and lib2 folders :

import sys

sys.path.append("..")

from libs.lib1.lib1_file import ClassNameLib1
from libs.lib2.lib2_file import ClassNameLib2

However, we can also add some informations in the __init__.py in the folder libs using the __all__ variable :

__all__ = [
    'lib1',
    'lib2',
    'lib3'
]

And in the folder lib1 we can add also an __init__.py file containing for all folders and files :

from .lib1_file import ClassNameLib1

__all__ = [
    'ClassNameLib1'
]

Doing that, it allows you to only call import libs to get everything you need in your project.
