Using the Actor instance across multiple files

Hi, how can i use the same actor instance across multiple functions defined in seperate files?

for example, if I define an Actor in the main.py file as:

async with Actor:
(some code)


How do i use Actor.log.info() in another function that is called from the main script?

Would appreciate any help in this.

After calling

async with Actor:
     (some code)

In all imports you will refer to this particular Actor

This is what I was wondering. As I checked the instance id across different files, they were all the same.
Thank you for confirming
