ModX — The Python Module Universe at Your Fingertips

🌟 ModXPy — The Python Module Universe at Your Fingertips

Welcome to ModXPy, the ultimate playground for Python’s modules.
With ModXPy you can instantly import, explore, and experiment with the entire Python standard library — plus any installed third-party modules — all from one simple interface.

UPDATE 2.3.0

REPLACED FUNCTION: imported() WITH preloaded()

imported() has been removed, due to importlog() doing the same job, but better sorting it into chronological order, causing overlap and rendering imported() kind of useless. importlog() does not check for preloaded modules, so ModX now has a function to tell you that.

Full Function Name + Docstring: preloaded(show_builtins=True, show_internal=False, show_submodules=False):

  """Show modules pre-loaded by Python before ModX started.

  show_builtins: Include Python built-in modules (default True)

  show_internal: Include modules starting with '_' (default False)

  show_submodules: Include submodules with '.' in name (default False)

  """

🚀 Installation and Importing

IMPORTANT: Before you install ModX, you MUST first (if not already) run "pip install packaging" inside of powershell/terminal. ModX will NOT work without the packaging module.

Install directly from terminal.

Type: "pip install modxpy"

In Python, import as import modx (not modxpy)

Functions:

🔹 importall(show_imported=False)

Imports about every standard library module at once.

🔹 importrandom(n, strict_mode = False, show_imported = False)

Import n random stndlib modules.

strict_mode=False: import n modules, some may leak due to dependencies.

strict_mode=True : Force import until EXACTLY n NEW modules.

🔹 importletter(letter, show_imported=False)

Imports all standard library modules whose names start with the given letter.

🔹 importexternal(show_imported=False)

Attempts to import every third-party module you currently have installed.

🔹 importscreen(show_imported=False)

Imports every module that uses a screen/GUI (like pygame or turtle).

🔹 listimportall()

Returns a list of modules that would be imported by import_all().

🔹 modsloaded()

Shows how many modules you currently have downloaded on your device.

🔹 preloaded()

Show modules pre-loaded by Python before ModX started.

🔹 modximported()

Lists the modules that were ONLY imported by ModX, NOT including user imports

and dependencies.

🔹 importletter(letter)

Import every standard library module from the ModX 'modules' list whose name starts with the given letter (case-insensitive).

🔹 searchmodules(keyword)

Search for modules whose names contain the keyword.

🔹 info(module_name)

Shows basic info about typed module: file path, built-in status, docstring.

🔹 isimported(module)

Checks if module is currently imported into Python Shell (Not Pythonlib)

🔹 dependencies()

Shows what other modules a specific module depends on without importing it.

🔹 vcompat(module_name, python_version)

Checks if a module is compatible with a python version, if a version was given.

🔹 modfunctions(module)

Show how many and what functions a module has without importing it.

🔹 modxhelp()

Shows ModX's built in help dialogue.

🔹 modclasses(module)

Show how many and what classes a module has without importing it.

🔹 modorigin(module)

Shows where a module came from (e.g. built-in, stndlib or pip-installed).

🔹 modbench(n)

Shows how much time and memory a module takes to import (typed modules DOES get imported)

🔹 revdeps(module)

Shows what modules import typed module without importing it.

🔹 modglobals(module)

Show a module's global names (not functions/classes/modules);

optional private names and Markdown export (may import typed module).

🔹 nonimported():

  Returns a list of STANDARD LIBRARY

modules that have NOT been imported yet.

🔹 importlog(include_deps = False):

  Show every module imported since ModX loaded in CHRONOLOGICAL order.

include_deps: If True, include ModX's dependencies in the list.

💡 Why Use ModX?

1.) Explore the Python standard library in seconds 2.) Stress-test your environment by bulk importing modules 3.) See hidden dependencies that load behind the scenes 4.) Experiment with random imports for fun or testing 5.) Discover new modules you didn’t know existed

ModXPy turns Python’s module system into a playground — perfect for learning, testing, or just satisfying your curiosity. Install it today with pip install modxpy, import it with import modx, and start discovering how many modules Python already has waiting for you!
