Question

I have a python module that defines a number of classes:

class A(object):     def __call__(self):         print 'ran a'  class B(object):     def __call__(self):         print 'ran b'  class C(object):     def __call__(self):         print 'ran c' 

From within the module, how might I add an attribute that gives me all of the classes?

dir() gives me the names of everything from within my module, but I can’t seem to figure out how to go from the name of a class to the class itself from within the module.

From outside of the module, I can simply use getattr(mod, 'A'), but I don’t have a self kind of module from within the module itself.

This seems pretty obvious. Can someone tell me what I’m missing?

Answer 1

import sys getattr(sys.modules[__name__], 'A')
