cython - How do I import function from .pyx file in python?

Question

I'm trying to run Hadoopy, which has a file _main.pyx, and import _main is failing with module not found in __init__.py.

I'm trying to run this on OS X w/ standard python 2.7.

Answer 1

Add this code before you try to import _main:

import pyximport
pyximport.install()

Note that pyximport is part of Cython, so you'll have to install that if it isn't already.
