Re: Dynamic Import with sub module

Replying to my own message.

I just realised that even the case I thought would work, will not. :(

If I have:

import slice_fablib_common.common as common

I end up with fabric showing me these commands:

Available commands:

    common.chef.report
    common.chef.run     Run the chef client.
    common.chef.start   Start chef-client service.
    common.chef.status  Show chef-client service status.
    common.chef.stop    Stop chef-client service.

However, that's only because slice_fablib_common/common/__init__.py has
'import chef'. I need to be able to individually load sub-modules from
common. I'm essentially loading the entire package here because I need to
put an import for every sub module into __init__.py anyway. :(

Doug.
