* Package name    : autoimport
  Version         : 1.2.2
  Upstream Author : Lyz <lyz@riseup.net>
* URL             : https://github.com/lyz-code/autoimport
* License         : GPL-3
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Autoimport missing python libraries

  Throughout the development of a python program you continuously need to
  manage the python import statements either because you need one new object
  or because you no longer need it. This means that you need to stop writing
  whatever you were writing, go to the top of the file, create or remove the
  import statement and then resume coding.
  .
  This workflow break is annoying and almost always unnecessary. 'autoimport'
  solves this problem if you execute it whenever you have an import error, for
  example by configuring your editor to run it when saving the file.
 
I plan to maintain this package as part of the Python modules team.
