simport
=======
Simple Import Library for Python
Supports importing functions or class methods from files
not in the Python Path.
Using Simport
=============
import simport
# For modules already in the Python Path
function = simport.load('mymodule.myfunction')
class_method = simport.load('mymodule:MyClass.mymethod')
klass = simport.load('mymodule:MyClass') # uninstanstiated.
# For modules not in the Python Path
function = simport.load('/path/to/dir|module_name:myfunction')
class_method = simport.load('/path/to/dir|module_name:MyClass.mymethod')
Look at the tests for some interesting naming conventions for
specifying relative modules, etc.
Running Tests
=============
From the simport root directory, run `tox`
