importing user defined modules...

[domgiles]

I feel a complete idiot for not being able to figure out how to do this...

I just want to be able to create a module and import it. So if I had something like

Code: Select all

class Welcomer:

    def __init__(self):
        '''
        Constructor
        '''
        
    def sayHello(self, name):
        return 'Hello ' + name

I'm working under possibly the naive impression that all I would need to do is to save it in the / directory of the folder and then simply import it but what ever I try I get

Code: Select all

ImportError: No module named 'Welcomer'

I've checked sys and it seems to indicate that micro python should pick it up from either the root or /lib

Code: Select all

>>> sys.path      
['0:/', '0:/lib']
>>>

Can someone put me out of my misery and explain what I'm doing wrong.

Is your code on the sd card? You need to add '1:/' path in your sys.path...

Ohhhhh... I'll give that ago. Thanks.

Not sure how I missed this

Or '/sd' if you're using new firmware.
