Public API Reference

import_files(path)

Recursively imports all Python files found in the specified directory and its subdirectories, excluding __init__.py. This function is intended to facilitate the dynamic loading of modules, particularly useful in scenarios like automatic model discovery in web applications.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
path	str	The directory path from which Python files should be imported.	required

Note

• This function modifies the global namespace by dynamically importing modules.
• Import paths are adjusted to be relative, considering the package structure.
