How to run another python file (not the main.py) ?
It surely simple to do this but I don't know how.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks
- create a new file with (name).py
- write your code in it
- go to main
- import (name)
- use functions in file : (name).(function)(parameters)
make a .replit file and then you can put any run command in it
for example in your .replit file:
run = "python myfile.py"
@MrEconomical will this work if i make them files in one program?
@MrEconomical im trying something similar (avoiding an annoying cyclic import) and i added it to the .replit and it still doesn't run the thing. could it be startCommand that starts those files? im basically trying to run flask while also running a command-line type of program
@chromebooker ok i found the solution to my problem: run the flask on another thread
Say you have a file called 'file2.py'. In your main.py file, type the line:
import file2
This runs the entire file as if it were a part of your main one, so any variables or functions in file2 will still be able to be referenced within main.py.

Perfect. Works great.
Can anyone help me with this now? i have tried every solution and they (no longer) work.
@HaroonMajid Make sure the file you dont want to run isnt in a folder cuz then it doesnt work and also dont include the .py at the end
