Python - Use Python Editable Packages=auto reload on change Oct. 10, 2023, 3:56 p.m.

Greetings,

I know this is an old one but,
I am developing python packages to use in Houdini for my nodes.
But when I update my scripts, the python modules do not reload automatically.
How can i make sure to install an editable python package without the need to restart houdini?

I tried the following things:

- in 456.py:
import importlib
importlib.reload(module_name)
- hython -m pip install -e
- in 456.py:
import site
site.addsitedir(package_folder)
-in 456.py: use os.path and append the package_folder
- setting PYTHONDEVMODE=1
- Modify PYTHONPATH
...

I do not want to reload manually... This is very frustrating for development.
Is there a way to do this?
