Better way to import multiple classes from multiple files in python

Question

I made a process scheduler simulator. I gave each scheduling algorithm its' own class within its' own file. all within a folder called Schedulers. In order to use them I have to import them like this:

from Schedulers.SchedulerFCFS import SchedulerFCFS
from Schedulers.SchedulerSJF import SchedulerSJF
from Schedulers.SchedulerRR import SchedulerRR

Anytime I add a new Scheduler class I'd have to add it to the imports. Is there a better way to import all of these classes?

Close enough I can tweak the chosen answer to solve my problem — DNS_Jeezus, Sep 25 '19 at 18:33

You could import all the classes by using from (YourPackage) import *.

For your example:

from Schedulers.SchedulerFCFS import *
from Schedulers.SchedulerSJF import *
from Schedulers.SchedulerRR import *
