Re: suppressing import errors

Show all headers | View raw

As with any Python code, you can wrap the import into a try: except block.

try:
 import badModule
except:
 pass # Or otherwise handle the exception - possibly importing an
alternative module.

As with any except statement, specific exceptions may be caught
(rather than the blank, catch everything).
