tomevault-io Python Library Analyzer
A skill for exploring and analyzing any Python library's structure, including modules, classes, functions, and their documentation.
When to Use
Use this skill when you need to:
- Explore an unfamiliar Python library's structure
- Find available classes and functions in a module
- Get function/method signatures and documentation
- Understand library architecture before using it
Quick Start
1. View Top-Level Modules
python view_python_module.py --module <library_name>
Example:
python view_python_module.py --module requests
python view_python_module.py --module numpy
python view_python_module.py --module pandas
2. Explore Submodules
python view_python_module.py --module <library>.<submodule>
Example:
python view_python_module.py --module requests.api
python view_python_module.py --module numpy.linalg
python view_python_module.py --module pandas.DataFrame
3. Get Class/Function Details
python view_python_module.py --module <library>.<Class>
python view_python_module.py --module <library>.<function>
Script Location
The view_python_module.py script is located in the same directory as this SKILL.md file.
Workflow
Check if library is installed:
pip list | grep <library_name>Install if needed (ask user permission first):
pip install <library_name>Start exploration from top level:
python view_python_module.py --module <library_name>Drill down into specific modules/classes:
python view_python_module.py --module <library>.<module>.<Class>
Example Session
# Explore requests library
$ python view_python_module.py --module requests
Available submodules in 'requests':
- requests.api: Convenience functions (get, post, put, delete, etc.)
- requests.models: Request and Response classes
- requests.sessions: Session management
- requests.auth: Authentication handlers
...
# Get details on the get function
$ python view_python_module.py --module requests.get
def get(url, params=None, **kwargs):
"""Sends a GET request.
Args:
url: URL for the request.
params: Dictionary of query parameters.
**kwargs: Optional arguments for request.
Returns:
Response object
"""
Tips
- Start with the library name to see the overall structure
- Use tab completion in shell for module paths
- For large libraries, explore section by section
- Check
__all__exports for public API
