I have a script named test1.py which is not in a module. It just has code that should execute when the script itself is run. There are no functions, classes, methods, etc. I have another script which runs as a service. I want to call test1.py from the script running as a service.
For example:
File test1.py:
print "I am a test"
print "see! I do nothing productive."
File service.py:
# Lots of stuff here
test1.py # do whatever is in test1.py
I’m aware of one method which is opening the file, reading the contents, and basically evaluating it. I’m assuming there’s a better way of doing this. Or at least I hope so.
