How do I get the path of the current executed file in Python?

Question

This may seem like a newbie question, but it is not. Some common approaches don\'t work in all cases:

sys.argv[0]

This means using path = os.path.abs

Answer 1

Simply add the following:

from sys import *
path_to_current_file = sys.argv[0]
print(path_to_current_file)

Or:

from sys import *
print(sys.argv[0])
