Easily add common paths to sys.path

SysPath

SysPath is a package to easily set common paths into sys.path. Instead of having to do a lot of path manipulation to properly import files, a file can import from SysPath instead.

Installation

pip install syspath

Usage

To append the current file's directory to sys.path:

import syspath
syspath.append_current_path()
# or
from syspath import current_path

To append the current file's parent directory to sys.path:

import syspath
syspath.append_parent_path()
# or
from syspath import parent_path

To append the current file's git repository root to sys.path:

import syspath
syspath.append_git_root()
# or
from syspath import git_root

Each of the shortcut modules also provide a path variable that can be used to get the path added.

Development

Syspath should work with both python 2 and 3.
