<h1>27.13. <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">site</span></tt> — Site-specific configuration hook<a class="headerlink" href="#module-site" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p><strong>This module is automatically imported during initialization.</strong> The automatic
import can be suppressed using the interpreter’s <a class="reference external" href="../using/cmdline.html#cmdoption-S"><em class="xref">-S</em></a> option.</p>
<p id="index-550">Importing this module will append site-specific paths to the module search path.</p>
<p id="index-551">It starts by constructing up to four directories from a head and a tail part.
For the head part, it uses <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.prefix</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.exec_prefix</span></tt>; empty heads
are skipped. For the tail part, it uses the empty string and then
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">lib/site-packages</span></tt> (on Windows) or
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">lib/python|version|/site-packages</span></tt> and then <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">lib/site-python</span></tt> (on
Unix and Macintosh). For each of the distinct head-tail combinations, it sees
if it refers to an existing directory, and if so, adds it to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.path</span></tt> and
also inspects the newly added path for configuration files.</p>
<p>A path configuration file is a file whose name has the form <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">package.pth</span></tt>
and exists in one of the four directories mentioned above; its contents are
additional items (one per line) to be added to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.path</span></tt>. Non-existing items
are never added to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.path</span></tt>, but no check is made that the item refers to a
directory (rather than a file). No item is added to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.path</span></tt> more than
once. Blank lines and lines beginning with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">#</span></tt> are skipped. Lines starting
with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">import</span></tt> (followed by space or tab) are executed.</p>
<p class="versionchanged">
<span class="versionmodified">Changed in version 2.6: </span>A space or tab is now required after the import keyword.</p>
<p id="index-552">For example, suppose <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.prefix</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.exec_prefix</span></tt> are set to
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/usr/local</span></tt>. The Python X.Y library is then installed in
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/usr/local/lib/python</span><em><span class="pre">X.Y</span></em></tt> (where only the first three characters of
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.version</span></tt> are used to form the installation path name). Suppose this has
a subdirectory <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/usr/local/lib/python</span><em><span class="pre">X.Y</span></em><span class="pre">/site-packages</span></tt> with three
subsubdirectories, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">foo</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bar</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">spam</span></tt>, and two path
configuration files, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">foo.pth</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bar.pth</span></tt>. Assume
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">foo.pth</span></tt> contains the following:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="c"># foo package configuration</span>
<span class="n">foo</span>
<span class="n">bar</span>
<span class="n">bletch</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bar.pth</span></tt> contains:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="c"># bar package configuration</span>
<span class="n">bar</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Then the following version-specific directories are added to
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.path</span></tt>, in this order:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>/usr/local/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/bar
/usr/local/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/foo</pre>
</div>
<p>Note that <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bletch</span></tt> is omitted because it doesn’t exist; the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bar</span></tt>
directory precedes the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">foo</span></tt> directory because <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bar.pth</span></tt> comes
alphabetically before <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">foo.pth</span></tt>; and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">spam</span></tt> is omitted because it is
not mentioned in either path configuration file.</p>
<p id="index-553">After these path manipulations, an attempt is made to import a module named
<tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">sitecustomize</span></tt>, which can perform arbitrary site-specific customizations.
If this import fails with an <a title="exceptions.ImportError" class="reference external" href="exceptions.html#exceptions.ImportError"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">ImportError</span></tt></a> exception, it is silently
ignored.</p>
<p id="index-554">Note that for some non-Unix systems, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.prefix</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.exec_prefix</span></tt> are
empty, and the path manipulations are skipped; however the import of
<tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">sitecustomize</span></tt> is still attempted.</p>
