I wanted to do
import module
module()
I thought this did not exist in Python but Chris Angelico, a Python core dev showed me it existed!
# importme.py
import sys, types
class Module(types.ModuleType):
def __call__(self):
print("You called me!")
sys.modules[__name__].__class__ = Module
# other_file.py
import importme
importme()
Mind boggling!
