scripts.basedir() doesn't return base of extension

[github-catch-22]

import modules.scripts as scripts
print scripts.basedir()

In an extensions/<extension-name>/scripts/<ext>.py returns the base directory of the Stable Diffusion UI not the current extension.
How do I get the current extension dir?

If I understand this correctly. Extension directory will be auto-named as the extension, so, like:

file_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath("__file__"))
ResourceDir = os.path.join(file_dir, f"extensions/<name of your extension>/scripts/")

Thanks for that answer. I will try it out and ensure it does work but I'd prefer not to have to hard code the name of my extension in the extension as it's not very portable to other extensions that might reuse that code.

The solution proposed works thanks

You shouldn't need to hardcode anything. The relevant part in the code is here:
https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/blob/master/modules/paths.py#L6

And when I try it, it works as advertised:

print(scripts.basedir())
C:\tools\Ai\stable-diffusion-webui\extensions\sd_save_intermediate_images

Aren*t you missing the parentheses in your print statement?

I'm facing this now; scripts.basedir() simply gives me the Applications/stable-diffusion-webui root folder. I feel dumb, what am I missing here?

[w-e-w]

it depends on where the scripts.basedir() is executed

essentially it only works during import phase and not during execution / callbacks

example
B:\GitHub\stable-diffusion-webui\extensions\example\scripts\example.py

from modules import scripts
extension_base_dir = scripts.basedir()  # 'B:\GitHub\stable-diffusion-webui\extensions\example'
# I recommend you save it here for later use
class ExampleScript(scripts.Script):
    def title(self):
        return 'Example script'
    def show(self, is_img2img):
        scripts.basedir()  # 'B:\GitHub\stable-diffusion-webui'
        return scripts.AlwaysVisible

Aaah, I see. Thanks! Perhaps this could be added to the wiki entry?
