I would like to know your opinion about which of these two scenarios is more pythonic.
Imagine that we have two modules of constants with same names but different values and depending on a value polite, we should use one or another. Which one is more pythonic? This is a very basic and reduced example of a real situation that I am considering.
Scenario 1
cts_not_polite.py
CT_HI = 'Hi'
CT_BYE = 'Bye'
cts_polite.py
CT_HI = 'Hello'
CT_BYE = 'Goodbye'
other_module.py
def function():
if polite:
import cts_polite as cts
else:
import cts_not_polite as cts
print(cts.CT_HI)
print(cts.CT_BYE)
Scenario 2
cts.py
CT_HI = 'Hi'
CT_HI_POLITE = 'Hello'
CT_BYE = 'Bye'
CT_BYE_POLITE = 'Goodbye'
other_module.py
import cts
....
def function()
if polite:
a = cts.CT_HI_POLITE
b = cts.CT_BYE_POLITE
else:
a = cts.CT_HI
b = cts.CT_BYE
print(a)
print(b)
Thank you very much in advance!
