Hi,many of my modules contain following section at the end def main(): do_something() if __name__ == '__main__': main() This allows me to run some basic example code or some small test in a stand alone mode. My new modules contain following line at the beginning: from __future__ import absolute_import I like this: - It can reduce import name conflicts - and second it allows 'relative' imports like from .othermodule import funcname from ..mod_one_level_higher import fdfsd However If I try to run such a script from the command line it will now complain with ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package Any tricks to work around this ??? The only idea, that I have is to have a script, that would take my modulename or path name as parameter, and try to import it and then call the main function of the imported module. Not very elegant, but probably functional. Thanks in advance for any other suggestions / ideas.
I hope this helps http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3616952/how-to-properly-use-relative-or-absolute-imports-in-python-modules
