get-params

this package allows you to fetch the arguments of a function from a simple search string, matching a function within a module.

usage

import pandas
loss_fn = find_fn(lib=pandas, module="dataframe")
get_required(loss_fn)

Output:

{'src': 'DataFrame.__init__',
  'required': [],
  'optional': ['data', 'index', 'columns', 'dtype', 'copy']}

installation

you can install the package using pip:

pip install get-params

or locally:

git clone <repo>
cd <repo>
pip install .

the package can be useful when you want to be flexible with arguments passed to e.g. a user interface, where you want to call a specific function. it was developed to handle the many loss functions inside the sentence_transformers.losses.
