pyzenkit.utils module

This module contains various handy utilities.

pyzenkit.utils.get_resource_path(fs_path, *more_chunks)

Return filesystem path to application resource with APP_ROOT_PATH taken into consideration. If fs_path is absolute the APP_ROOT_PATH will be ignored as usual.

pyzenkit.utils.get_resource_path_fr(fs_path, *more_chunks)

Force given application filesystem path to be relative to APP_ROOT_PATH.

pyzenkit.utils.load_dotenv(path=None)

Load “dotenv” files in order of precedence to set environment variables. If an env var is already set it is not overwritten, so earlier files in the list are preferred over later files.

Changes the current working directory to the location of the first file found, with the assumption that it is in the top level project directory and will be where the Python path should import local packages from. This is a no-op if python-dotenv is not installed.

Parameters

path (str) – Load the file at this location instead of searching.

Returns

True if a file was loaded.

Return type

bool

pyzenkit.utils.load_dotenv_cwd()

Load “dotenv” files in order of precedence to set environment variables. If an env var is already set it is not overwritten, so earlier files in the list are preferred over later files. This method attempts to load .env.local and .env files, if present in current directory.

This is a no-op if python-dotenv is not installed.
