从 Github 上托管的 Python 脚本导入函数

Question

Is there a simply way to download/save a Python script hosted on Github and then import a function within that script? I could manually save it and then import the function I need (of course), but I'd like to find a more self-contained solution. Ideally, I'd like to be able to send it to someone and have them run my script without having to manually download anything.

Any help?

You could use setuptools and write custom setup script for your package. Wrap your script into python package.

So users will be able install it via pip with just a single line:

pip install git+https://github.com/yournickname/reponame.git
