How to get all variable and method names used in script

Question

It can be weird but I am looking for a way to get automatically all variables and method within a python script.

For example,

a = 1
b = 2
c = 3
myLis         


        

Answer 1

You can use dir() built-in for this. Suppose you save your file as test.py. You can do as follows:

>>> import test

>>> dir(test)
['__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', 'a', 'b', 'c', 'f', 'myList', 'someMethod']
>>>
