Module aliasing in Julia

问题

In python you can do something like this to let you use a shortened module name:

>>> import tensorflow as tf

From then on you can refer to tf, instead of having to type tensorflow everywhere.

Is something like this possible in Juila?

回答1:

Yep, you can just assign the module to a new name.

import JSON
const J = JSON

J.print(Dict("Hello, " => "World!"))

I highly recommend to use the const because otherwise there will be a performance penalty. (With the const, there is no performance penalty.)

回答2:

If you do this constantly and really like the familiar syntax maybe you should use the package ImportMacros, which enables the following:

julia> @import tensorflow as tf

Just install the package with

julia> using Pkg; Pkg.add("ImportMacros")

and add using ImportMacros to your .juliarc.jl to load the package at the start of every session automatically.
