| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | importlib.machinery.FileFinder. While originally moved to stop special-casing '' as PathFinder farther up the typical call chain now uses the cwd in the instance of '', it was deemed an unnecessary risk to breaking subclasses of FileFinder to take the special-casing out.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | and stop importlib.machinery.FileFinder treating '' as '.'. Previous PathFinder transformed '' into '.' which led to __file__ for modules imported from the cwd to always be relative paths. This meant the values of the attribute were wrong as soon as the cwd changed. This change now means that as long as the site module is run (which makes all entries in sys.path absolute) then all values for __file__ will also be absolute unless it's for __main__ when specified by file path in a relative way (modules imported by runpy will have an absolute path). Now that PathFinder is no longer treating '' as '.' it only makes sense for FileFinder to stop doing so as well. Now no transformation is performed for the directory given to the __init__ method. Thanks to Madison May for the initial patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | importlib.abc.Loader.init_module_attrs() and implement importlib.abc.InspectLoader.load_module(). The importlib.abc.Loader.init_module_attrs() method sets the various attributes on the module being loaded. It is done unconditionally to support reloading. Typically people used importlib.util.module_for_loader, but since that's a decorator there was no way to override it's actions, so init_module_attrs() came into existence to allow for overriding. This is also why module_for_loader is now pending deprecation (having its other use replaced by importlib.util.module_to_load). All of this allowed for importlib.abc.InspectLoader.load_module() to be implemented. At this point you can now implement a loader with nothing more than get_code() (which only requires get_source(); package support requires is_package()). Thanks to init_module_attrs() the implementation of load_module() is basically a context manager containing 2 methods calls, a call to exec(), and a return statement.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | While the previous location was fine, it makes more sense to have the method higher up in the inheritance chain, especially at a point where get_source() is defined which is the earliest source_to_code() could programmatically be used in the inheritance tree in importlib.abc.

* | #17115,17116: Have modules initialize the __package__ and __loader__Brett Cannon2013-05-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | attributes to None. The long-term goal is for people to be able to rely on these attributes existing and checking for None to see if they have been set. Since import itself sets these attributes when a loader does not the only instances when the attributes are None are from someone overloading __import__() and not using a loader or someone creating a module from scratch. This patch also unifies module initialization. Before you could have different attributes with default values depending on how the module object was created. Now the only way to not get the same default set of attributes is to circumvent initialization by calling ModuleType.__new__() directly.
