Description:

pythonqualify 0.1.1

qualify
A Python package that allows you to import top-level modules which
reside in a directory that is not on sys.path.
Rationale
This is for scenarios where you have a collection of top-level
modules but you want to keep their parent directory off sys.path.
Example:
You have a directory d that contains two top-level modules with
the rather generic names main and utils.
You want to import these modules but also keep their parent
directory d off sys.path to keep the global namespace of
top-level modules from being polluted with these generic names.
However, main refers to utils by its top-level name. So if you
just run import d.main, you’d get an error:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'utils'

Running enable_submodules('d') will allow you to import d.main
successfully.
Running import d.main will add the following modules to
sys.modules:

d
d.main
d.utils

Note that unlike similar implementations, the python_qualify package
does not touch sys.path. This helps prevent unwanted modules from
being exposed to the global namespace.
