Hi,
is there some description available to overwrite the import
hook? By googling i found out so far that i need to overwrite
__builtins__.__ import__ with something else.
Can i also do this with a C function that is provided when
using an embedded python interpreter? So my own C program
provides this and when linking with python.lib the function
is overwritten?
Or is there some extension hook?
Does this also handle "from module import *" not only the normal
"import module"?
Thanks for any hints,
Torsten. 2 3054
Hi Torsten,
If you want to use other methods to import (other than good ole file
system), yes, you can create an importer class and register it as an
importer module, that import will use to search and import.
For example, it is possible to use zip imports (this functionality is
already builtin) to import from a zip archive.
py>>> import zlib # required
py>>> import sys
py>>> sys.path.append ('/location/to/zippedmodules.z ip')
py>>> import testzip
py>>> testzip.__file_ _
'/location/to/zippedmodules.z ip/testzip,py'
To generally do it, you have to:
1. Create a class that provides a load_module method that returns a
module type.
2. Install your class as a hook using
sys.path_hooks. append(your_imp orter_class)
Please take a look at the imp module : http://docs.python.org/lib/module-imp.html for a complete description
on accessing the import internals. There is also a simple example in
this section.
Is this is what you are looking for?
Thanks,
--Kartic
PS: This about how much I know...the more I find out, I will share :-)

I will just chime in to say I too am looking for information in this
area. I hope to put some sort of BoF or Open Space event together for
people wishing to learn about (and teach about) the import system from
PEP 302 at PyCon this year.
Early bird registration rates are still available today and tomorrow!

I'd like to do something rather silly: I'd like to run a particular piece of

at the time that the module is originally loaded. So, every time a module says

I've found a case where it seems that Python is importing two copies of a
module without any reason or indication. It took me a while to verify that
this is what is occuring: I had to write a __import__ hook to trace the
actual activity. The source code for the hook is below.
There are several examples of the problem in the trace; this is one
particularly juicy one.

Hello,
Do you know of a reference implementation of an import hook? I mean a
class, written in Python, that imitates Python's default module loading
behaviour. I mean that I would be able to append the class to
sys.path_hooks, and modules will be imported in the same way they are
currently imported.
I want it so that it would be easy for me to change it, or subclass it,
for my own needs, while preserving its behaviour. (The situation,...

Hi, I'm using import hooks according to PEP 302, in order to load
python files from a game PAK file. The game is C++ using embedded and
extended Python (v2.33) and Boost. The importing works fine, but
after modules are imported I can't reload them. I've tried
'reload(foo)' and 'PyImport_ReloadModule(pModPtr)', but both return
'ImportError: No module named foo'.
Is it safe to assume that reload doesn't respect the import hook?
