A lightweight and extensible way to implement lazy imports globally.
Project description
Lazi: Lazy Imports Everywhere
An easy way to implement and track lazy imports globally.
No external dependencies.
Requres Python 3.11.
Usage:
poetry add lazi
TRACE=1 python3
Python 3.11.2
>>> import lazi.auto
>>> from django import test
[139840712693360] LAZY >>>> [139840715383056] django[.test]
[139840712694640] LAZY <<<< [139840712694240] django.utils[.version] = [139840712695040]
[139840712695040] LAZY >>>> [139840712694880] [django.utils.]django.utils.version[.get_version]
[139840712696720] LAZY >>>> [139840712696000] [django.utils.]django.utils.regex_helper[._lazy_re_compile]
[139840712697680] LAZY >>>> [139840712697280] [django.utils.]django.utils.functional[.SimpleLazyObject]
>>> test.TestCase
# ... A lot of output ...
<class 'django.test.testcases.TestCase'>
>>> _
Use for specific modules:
>>> from lazi.core import lazi
>>> with lazi:
... import django
... print(django.VERSION)
...
(4, 2, 1, 'final', 0)
>>> _
Or:
>>> from lazi.core import lazy
>>> django = lazy("django")
>>> django.VERSION
(4, 2, 1, 'final', 0)
>>> _
Configuration
The lazi.conf namespace package contains configuration modules
that get autoloaded (in import order) by lazi.conf.conf.
It is fully decoupled from the rest of the codebase.
As a result, it's possible configure Lazi by creating lazi.conf
modules in your project (within the lazi.conf namespace package),
and use conf modules provided by other packages.
Configuration is not yet controllable via environment variables, but this is planned for the future. Update: Supported for DEBUG_TRACING.
It's also possible to manually change the configuration at runtime,
with the caveat that some variables may have already been used by
lazi.core. To avoid this, configure Lazi before importing it:
from lazi.conf import conf
conf.TRACE = 1
import lazi.auto
