Automatically enable a mode with dir-locals.el

Question

I'm trying to achieve the effect of automatically calling M-x importmagic-mode whenever I open a python file, but I need to do this in a directory specific way, using dir-locals.el.

I have this in dir-locals.el:

((python-mode . (
                 (eval . (importmagic-mode 1))
)))

But I still have to M-x importmagic-mode every time I open a python file. What am I missing to make this automatic? Is my syntax just wrong?

You don't need the 1.

                 (eval . (importmagic-mode))
