#90722 — How to deploy a custom common module?

While working on one python script (test.py), I developed some functions that I will probably need in my future projects, so I decided to put such functions in another python file (cmn_funcs.py).

So in my test.py there is import cmn_funcs in order to use common functions and everything works well.

When I deploy test.py on another computer, I put (rsync) both test.py and cmn_funcs.py in the same remote directory.

If I create another python project (test2.py) in new directory, that needs common functions, what should I do with cmn_funcs.py?

Cmn_funcs.py should be in some shared directory accessible by my every current and future python project.

Furthermore, I would like to preserve simplicity of using rsync for upgrading these three python files on remote computers.

I put my shared code in a separate folder, named something like
/path/to/module_dir.

I then add to /etc/profile.d/something.sh:

export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/path/to/module_dir

I think you could use the user site packages directory as well for this... then you
should not have to change the PYTHONPATH.

https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/site.html#site.USER_SITE

(if you don't want to or cannot install into to the system's site-packages directory)
