Python – The folder where modules are imported in Python

Is it possible to get a list of modules from a folder/package in python and import them?

I would like to be able to do this from a function in the class so that the entire class can access them (probably through the __init__ method).

Any help would be appreciated.

The only solution is for the package author to provide an explicit
index of the package. The import statement uses the following
convention: if a package’s __init__.py code defines a list named
__all__, it is taken to be the list of module names that should be imported when from package import * is encountered. It is up to the
package author to keep this list up-to-date when a new version of the
package is released. Package authors may also decide not to support
it, if they don’t see a use for importing * from their package. For
example, the file sounds/effects/__init__.py could contain the
following code:

__all__ = ["echo", "surround", "reverse"]

This would mean that from sound.effects import * would import the three named submodules of the sound package.

Yes, you can find a way to do this by listing the directories for the files in the directory and importing them manually. But there is no built-in syntax to meet your requirements.
