TL;DR
*.pyc
(that has a matching *.py
file) files and remove them to force usage of new code?.py
files found on disc while overwriting existing .pyc
files?I have an issue with a custom python package that got updated .
After the update (replaced old .py
files with new .py
files) iv'e noticed that when importing the package - old compiled code (stored as *.pyc
files) got referenced instead of the newer code (lying in the .py
files).
When i update a package i need to "flush the cache" (removing all of these pyc files hopefully they will get lazy initialized on first use) . As a hack i thought about removing all files found on disc matching *.pyc
suffix (that has a matching *.py
file) and rebooting the machine
Alternatively, is there a way to locate and re-compile all .py
files found on disc while overwriting existing .pyc
files?
Yes, it's safe. Use pyclean
command
Usage: pyclean [-p PACKAGE] [DIR_OR_FILE]
pyclean .
