Import local py file about nimpy

[ctpeterson]

The following seemed to resolve this issue for me (CentOS). Following the example laid out in tbuiltinpyfromnim.nim & builtinpyfromnim:

Python

import sys
def hello_world():
return "hello_world"

Nim

let sys = pyImport("sys")
let os = pyImport("os")
discard sys.path.append(os.getcwd().to(string))
let tst {.used.} = pyImport("mymod")
echo tst.hello_world()

Output

hello_world

The important thing for getting this to work on my end was importing sys in both modules & adding the local path to the Nim module with sys.

The only thing that should matter is python's sys.path.

import os, nimpy
discard pyImport("sys").path.append(getCurrentDir())
