Module grabber
-
I was curious as to what some of the modules (as in,
import {module}) actually look like. So I made this script to pull them from the app's site-packages folder.https://gist.github.com/79be00ce58370583b65f
I'm sure it can be improved – all I ask is that you let me know so I can get the better version! :p

You might want to have a look at the
inspectmodule, particularly thegetsourcefunction. -
I made something similar a while ago, it looks up and opens the path for a given module name.
Bonus feature: if you have text selected that looks like a module name or import statement, that module is looked up directly without asking for a name.

Thanks for the suggestions! I've implemented the inspect module and am working on something similer to the importfinder script.

Thanks for the useful tool. Python is still relatively new to me and whenever learning a new language it always helps to spend as much time as possbile reading existing code. The Python standard library modules are ideal sources (pun intended) for code to study.
