importlib.import_module(m) 可以做`from m import *` 吗？

Question

The file module_x has

module_x.py

A = 'x'

And the following script will print 'x' from module_x.py , which is what I need.

A = 'a'

from module_x import *
print(A)  # x

However, I need to dynamically import the module so I use importlib for it. However, the following code prints 'a'.

from importlib import import_module

A = 'a'

m = 'module_x'  # m will be passed as a parameter
x = import_module(m) 
print(A)  # a

The value of xA is 'x', but I want the import_module() to assign A to 'x'.

Answer 1

this should do it:

globals().update(import_module("module").__dict__)

In case you want to import something specific

var = import_module("module").var
