What I would like is a handy GUI to inspect objects. The dir() function just isn’t enough sometimes!
What would happen would I would type view_object(module) and it would give me a GUI window that has
Features:
– Tree-view representation, similar to a file-viewer. This would let me see all the classes, and I could expand/contract these views.
– selecting on any object lets me see any doc attributes.
Ideally it would also let me cntrl+click on an object (or some other command) and open up the tree-view on THAT object, within IT’S module!
This shouldn’t be THAT hard to make, so I assume someone has made it, I’m just having a hell of a time finding it!
Eclipse PyDev is really great. Especially debugger. I’t heavy and it starts slowly, but it’s a powerful tool.
Not only you can see a tree-view of any variable in a runtime but you can even modify it on the fly.
