Installation
This package runs under Python 2.7 and 3.3+, use pip to install:
$ pip install current
Usage
Get paths relative to the current module:
>>> import current
>>> here = current.current_path()
>>> parent = current.current_path('..')
>>> bruces = current.current_path('..', 'australia', 'bruces', 'bruces.ini')
Temporarily add the parent directory to sys.path:
>>> with current.inserted_path()
... import australia
Get paths relative to the module of the callers of the current code:
>>> caller = current.caller_path()
>>> callercaller = current.caller_path(steps=2)
Potential issues
This package uses sys._getframe (which is almost the same as inspect.currentframe, see docs). Under IronPython this might require enabling the FullFrames option of the interpreter.
