在Python中,当两个模块试图相互导入时会发生什么?更一般地说,如果多个模块试图在一个循环中导入会发生什么?


另见我能做什么关于“ImportError:不能导入名称X”或“AttributeError:…”(很可能是由于循环导入)”?关于可能导致的常见问题,以及如何重写代码以避免此类导入的建议。参见为什么循环导入看起来在调用堆栈中更上一层,但随后在更下一层引发ImportError ?有关问题发生的原因和方式的技术细节。

bar.py

print('going to import foo')
from foo import printx

foo.py

print('trying to import bar')
import bar

def printx():
    print('x')
$ python bar.py

going to import foo
trying to import bar
going to import foo
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bar.py", line 2, in <module>
    from foo import printx
  File "/home/suhail/Desktop/temp/circularimport/foo.py", line 2, in <module>
    import bar
  File "/home/suhail/Desktop/temp/circularimport/bar.py", line 2, in <module>
    from foo import printx
ImportError: cannot import name 'printx' from partially initialized module 'foo' (most likely due to a circular import) (/home/suhail/Desktop/temp/circularimport/foo.py)

我用下面的方法解决了这个问题,没有任何错误。 考虑两个文件a.py和b.py。

我把这个添加到a.py,它工作了。

if __name__ == "__main__":
        main ()

a.py:

import b
y = 2
def main():
    print ("a out")
    print (b.x)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main ()

b.py:

import a
print ("b out")
x = 3 + a.y

得到的输出是

>>> b out 
>>> a out 
>>> 5

去年在comp.lang.python上对此进行了很好的讨论。它很彻底地回答了你的问题。

Imports are pretty straightforward really. Just remember the following: 'import' and 'from xxx import yyy' are executable statements. They execute when the running program reaches that line. If a module is not in sys.modules, then an import creates the new module entry in sys.modules and then executes the code in the module. It does not return control to the calling module until the execution has completed. If a module does exist in sys.modules then an import simply returns that module whether or not it has completed executing. That is the reason why cyclic imports may return modules which appear to be partly empty. Finally, the executing script runs in a module named __main__, importing the script under its own name will create a new module unrelated to __main__. Take that lot together and you shouldn't get any surprises when importing modules.

这里有个例子让我震惊!

foo.py

import bar

class gX(object):
    g = 10

bar.py

from foo import gX

o = gX()

main.py

import foo
import bar

print "all done"

在命令行:$ python main.py

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "m.py", line 1, in <module>
    import foo
  File "/home/xolve/foo.py", line 1, in <module>
    import bar
  File "/home/xolve/bar.py", line 1, in <module>
    from foo import gX
ImportError: cannot import name gX

如果你导入foo(在bar.py内部)和导入bar(在foo.py内部),它会工作得很好。在实际运行任何东西时,两个模块都将完全加载,并将相互引用。

问题是当你做from foo import abc(在bar.py内)和from bar import xyz(在foo.py内)时。因为现在每个模块都需要另一个模块已经被导入(以便导入的名称存在),然后才能导入它。

Ok, I think I have a pretty cool solution. Let's say you have file a and file b. You have a def or a class in file b that you want to use in module a, but you have something else, either a def, class, or variable from file a that you need in your definition or class in file b. What you can do is, at the bottom of file a, after calling the function or class in file a that is needed in file b, but before calling the function or class from file b that you need for file a, say import b Then, and here is the key part, in all of the definitions or classes in file b that need the def or class from file a (let's call it CLASS), you say from a import CLASS

这是可行的,因为您可以导入文件b,而无需Python执行文件b中的任何导入语句,因此您可以避免任何循环导入。

例如:

文件:

class A(object):

     def __init__(self, name):

         self.name = name

CLASS = A("me")

import b

go = B(6)

go.dostuff

文件b:

class B(object):

     def __init__(self, number):

         self.number = number

     def dostuff(self):

         from a import CLASS

         print "Hello " + CLASS.name + ", " + str(number) + " is an interesting number."
