current_path
current_path is a small library for getting current
path data for a script that imports this library.
Installation
pip install current-path
Usage
Get the current file's path which imports current-path:
from current_path import current_file
if __name__ == '__main__':
print(current_file())Get the current directory's path which contains the file
which imports current-path:
from current_path import current_dir
if __name__ == '__main__':
print(current_dir())Temporarily change the current working directory to the file's directory until the code block under the context manager has been completed:
from current_path import current_dir_as_cwd
import os
def create_file(path: str):
with open(path, 'w'):
"""File has been created."""
if __name__ == '__main__':
# CWD is some arbitrary directory.
with current_dir_as_cwd():
# CWD is this file's directory.
os.mkdir("file_directory")
create_file("file_0.txt")
# CWD returns to same arbitrary directory.The above code ensures that, no matter which working directory the script is invoked from, the file is created in the same location.
