pyjar

Move Python things to other modules, mostly for backward-compatibility, such as when you want to refactor your code but still need old pickles to be loadable, or particularly if you need the new pickles to be byte-for-byte-identical to the old ones.

installation

😄

You can pip install pyjar if you really want to, but you can also just copy this public-domain code from src/pyjar/__init__.py directly into your own project. You can even give it a name you like better.

usage

from pyjar import jar


@jar('.old_module_name)
def my_function_that_i_moved_here():
    ...

The function (or class, or whatever) will still be importable from its new location, but it will pickle as though it lives in the old location. And as long as the module that defines the function itself has been imported, old pickles pointing to the old location will successfully unpickle.
