objspct 1.1.0

Introspect any Python object

ObjSpct

objspct is a Python introspection tool that lets you explore any Python object. Whether you’re debugging, learning a library, or documenting your code, objspct gives you a rich, structured overview of an object’s attributes, methods, properties, and more — all in a beautifully formatted tree using Rich.

Features

Deep object introspection: Inspect types, classes, methods, properties, and attributes. Classify members intelligently: Automatically separates magic methods, internal/external methods, and attributes. Property-aware: Detects and lists properties separately. Pretty-print with Rich: Generates a tree view that’s easy to read and understand. Flexible filtering: Skip empty fields or select which categories to display.

Installation

pip install objspct

Usage

from objspct import inspect_object

class MyClass:
    def __init__(self):
        self.public_attr = 42
        self._internal_attr = "secret"

    @property
    def computed(self):
        return self.public_attr * 2

    def public_method(self):
        return "Hello"

    def _internal_method(self):
        return "Internal"

obj = MyClass()
inspect_object(obj)

This will output a rich, hierarchical tree showing all categorized members of the object.

Filtering

# Only display methods and properties
inspect_object(obj, categories=["methods_external", "properties"])

---

Skip Empty Attributes

# Skip empty attributes in the tree
inspect_object(obj, skip_empty=True)
