Hide external modules when importing a module (e.g. regarding code-completion)

Question

I have several modules in one package (a kind of a toolkit), which I use in my projects. The structure looks like this:

the_toolkit:
    __init__.py
    basi         


        

Answer 1

An alternative solution I came up with is to implement a short API class in the __init__ file which can make use of the __all__ variable (which may already be defined for import * purposes). Something like this in __init__.py:

import matrix_kit

class _matrix_kit_API:
    def __init__(self):
        for func in matrix_kit.__all__:
            setattr(self, func, eval(f"matrix_kit.{func}"))

matrix_kit = _matrix_kit_API()
