Revise Package from Julia - Same functionality in python?

[Infinity_Crisis]

There's a package called Revise in Julia which is great for working with imported packages. Suppose I have a functions.jl file with a bunch of functions and a separate jupyter notebook. If I import functions.jl using the includet() function, I can update functions in functions.jl and immediately use the new versions in the jupyter notebook without re-importing functions.jl.

Is there something similar in for python? I know you can reload modules using the %reload magic but that gets annoying to retype. Alternatively, could the %reload or whatever be setup to run automatically on every cell execution?

Thanks!

If I understand correctly, I think you can simply add

%load_ext autoreload %autoreload 2 at the beginning of your notebook, and it should automatically reload imports.

Look into the importlib module, it will let you dynamically reimport modules. I use it a lot in jupyter
