importit 0.1.3

importit

Import python code from anywhere.

importit is a python code import helper. Using it, you can dynamically import python code from different sources (like gists, python files on the internet, local python files). You don't need to copy python code snippets from project to project.
Some of use cases can be:

Reusing python code snippets in multiple places and projects
Dynamically reloading python code on live environments
You tell me, what will you use it for?

From where do you want to import?

Github Gist

Find the gist id from the gist url: https://gist.github.com/<username>/<gist id>
Using this gist as an exmaple:
from importit import import_gist

imported_gist = import_gist("imported_gist", "51dcf067f4e445c3f837d26efd2c138e")

imported_gist.first_file.some_function()
imported_gist.second_file.some_other_function()

Note: The gist will be imported in the form of module, with each python file in the gist as a submodule.

Remote File

Use any valid python file url (for example, http://bit.ly/aPythonFile)
from importit import import_remote_file

imported_file = import_remote_file("imported_file", "http://bit.ly/aPythonFile")

imported_file.some_function()

Local File
from importit import import_remote_file

imported_file = import_remote_file("imported_file", "/home/divykj/aPythonFile.py")

imported_file.some_function()

Code Snippet
from importit import import_code

python_code = """
def some_function():
# do some crazy things
pass
"""

imported_code = import_code("imported_code", python_code)
imported_code.some_function()

Planning to add Github, Gitlab, Bitbucket (and other git repository services) and maybe PyPI support soon.
