Find path to currently running file

Question

How can I find the full path to the currently running Python script? That is to say, what do I have to do to achieve this:

$ pwd
/tmp
$ python baz.py
running         


        

Answer 1

The running file is always __file__.

Here's a demo script, named identify.py

print __file__

Here's the results

MacBook-5:Projects slott$ python StackOverflow/identify.py 
StackOverflow/identify.py
MacBook-5:Projects slott$ cd StackOverflow/
MacBook-5:StackOverflow slott$ python identify.py 
identify.py
