import sys, types

def _get_mod(modulePath):
    try:
        aMod = sys.modules[modulePath]
        if not isinstance(aMod, types.ModuleType):
            raise KeyError
    except KeyError:
        # The last [''] is very important!
        aMod = __import__(modulePath, globals(), locals(), [''])
        sys.modules[modulePath] = aMod
    return aMod

def _get_func(fullFuncName):
    """Retrieve a function object from a full dotted-package name."""

    # Parse out the path, module, and function
    lastDot = fullFuncName.rfind(u".")
    funcName = fullFuncName[lastDot + 1:]
    modPath = fullFuncName[:lastDot]

    aMod = _get_mod(modPath)
    aFunc = getattr(aMod, funcName)

    # Assert that the function is a *callable* attribute.
    assert callable(aFunc), u"%s is not callable." % fullFuncName

    # Return a reference to the function itself,
    # not the results of the function.
    return aFunc

def _get_class(fullClassName, parentClass=None):
    """Load a module and retrieve a class (NOT an instance).

    If the parentClass is supplied, className must be of parentClass
    or a subclass of parentClass (or None is returned).
    """
    aClass = _get_func(fullClassName)

    # Assert that the class is a subclass of parentClass.
    if parentClass is not None:
        if not issubclass(aClass, parentClass):
            raise TypeError(u"%s is not a subclass of %s" %

class StorageManager: pass

def storage_object(aFullClassName, allOptions={}):
    aStoreClass = _get_class(aFullClassName, StorageManager)
    return aStoreClass(allOptions)

听起来您不想专门导入配置文件（这会带来很多副作用和额外的复杂性）。您只需要运行它，并能够访问生成的命名空间。标准库以runpy.run_path的形式专门提供了一个API：

from runpy import run_path
settings = run_path("/path/to/file.py")

该接口在Python 2.7和Python 3.2+中可用。

一种非常简单的方法：假设您希望导入具有相对路径../..的文件/MyLibs/pyfunc.py

libPath = '../../MyLibs'
import sys
if not libPath in sys.path: sys.path.append(libPath)
import pyfunc as pf

但如果你在没有守卫的情况下成功，你最终会走上一条很长的路。

您可以使用pydoc中的importfile

from pydoc import importfile
module = importfile('/full/path/to/module/module.py')
name = module.myclass() # myclass is a class inside your python file

特殊的是使用Exec（）导入具有绝对路径的模块：（exec采用代码字符串或代码对象。而eval采用表达式。）

PYMODULE = 'C:\maXbox\mX47464\maxbox4\examples\histogram15.py';
Execstring(LoadStringJ(PYMODULE));

然后使用eval（）获取值或对象：

println('get module data: '+evalStr('pyplot.hist(x)'));

使用exec加载模块就像使用通配符命名空间导入：

Execstring('sys.path.append(r'+'"'+PYMODULEPATH+'")');
Execstring('from histogram import *'); 

要从给定文件名导入模块，可以临时扩展路径，并在finally块引用中恢复系统路径：

filename = "directory/module.py"

directory, module_name = os.path.split(filename)
module_name = os.path.splitext(module_name)[0]

path = list(sys.path)
sys.path.insert(0, directory)
try:
    module = __import__(module_name)
finally:
    sys.path[:] = path # restore
