Cannot import from custom module in different directory about rapydscript HOT 5 OPEN

What does your compilation command look like?

from rapydscript.

from the doc:

RapydScript first tries to search the current directory of the file for the import. If that fails, it tries to search user-defined imports (which can be set via RAPYDSCRIPT_PATH environment variable as colon-separated directories, or semi-colon separated on Windows), and finally in the RapydScript builtin directory. This search order allows the user to easily override inbuilt functions.

You have two ways:

• define RAPYDSCRIPT_PATH
• create a simple one-line file with import file1.main in the parent folder of your packages and pass it to the compiler

from rapydscript.

ok, i'm kind of confused on the RAPYDSCRIPT_PATH one; Are you supposed to change the environment variable whenever you create a new package, or are editing in a new project? That would be a nightmare! Also, I tried the second method but it didn't work

from rapydscript.

ok, i solved it by configuring the --import-path attribute, though I don't understand the RAPYDSCRIPT_PATH variable

from rapydscript.

For example, if you wanted to import from a directory using --import-path, you would do something like:
rapydscript main.py --import-path "./lib"

Using environment variables is a little different.
export RAPYDSCRIPT_PATH="./lib"; rapydscript main.py
If you wanted to save this environment variable permanently, add it to your .profile. Your profile will depend on your OS.
