What is a good way to access the file_packager script?

[jspanchu]

In a python script, I'd like to run file_packager.py to preload files myself. This is what I do right now:

EM_FILE_PACKAGER = Path(os.environ["EMSDK"]).joinpath("upstream/emscripten/tools/file_packager.py")
subprocess.call([sys.executable, EM_FILE_PACKAGER, ..])

Is there a better env var? I expect going down "upstream" wouldn't work in a developer setup.

I would look for emcc in your path and then find file_packager.py relative to it.

I guess maybe should create emcc_file_packager in top level dir so that you can just find that in your path directly?

That would be very convenient!

BTW to find emcc in the PATH in python you can use shutil.which('emcc')
