A simple superset of Python with import expressions added in. Beware: This project has only been made as a proof of concept and is not intended to ever be used in production.

pip install impexpr

impexpr alias can be used in the same way as python alias, a few examples:

• To run an interactive REPL with import expression support, run impexpr
• To run a script, run impexpr script.py (all imported modules will also support import expressions)
• To import itertools and use it in the same line:

for x in (import itertools).chain([1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]):
    print(x)

• To get help about collections.deque:

help((import collections).deque)

• If your script must run with python alias but you want to enable import expression support in all imported modules (not in the main script!), you can use:

import impexpr
impexpr.add_hook()
# this will now support import expressions
import my_other_script

• For everything else, run impexpr --help

• Relative imports not supported yet
