How to use global variables between files with Python?
To use global variables between files with Python, we can import the variable in another module.
For instance, we write
settings.py
def init():
global my_list
my_list = []
to add the my_list global variable.
Then we import the variable in foo.py and use it by writing
import settings
def stuff():
settings.my_list.append('abc')
to import the global variables from settings.py with
import settings
And then we use it by calling settings.my_list.append.
