Where is module being imported from?

Question

Assuming I have two Python modules and path_b is in the import path:

# file: path_b/my_module.py
print \"I was imported from ???\"

#file: path_a/app.py
impo         


        

Answer 1

There may be an easier way to do this, but this works:

import inspect

print inspect.getframeinfo(inspect.getouterframes(inspect.currentframe())[1][0])[0]

Note that the path will be printed relative to the current working directory if it's a parent directory of the script location.
