I want to invoke config.py from ./, but I want config.py to recognize the path where it is located ("./second/config.py")
I want to invoke config.py from "./" and I want config.py to recognize and read file.json, but I dont want to send any paths as argument, nor append "./second" to sys.path. Is there a piece of code that can allow config.py recognize its relative path, and in this way join this path to the json's filename and read it?
./
├── main.py
└── second
├── config.py
└── file.json
I tried this on config.py
def test():
print(pathlib.Path().absolute())
print(os.getcwd())
However, it returns
./
and I am expecting it to return
/second/config.py
you can use this two os methods together
import os
full_path = os.path.dirname(__file__) + os.path.basename(__file__)
