ModuleAttributePath#

class treescope.canonical_aliases.ModuleAttributePath[source]#

Bases: object

Expected path where we can find a particular object in a module.

Variables:
  • module_name (str) – Fully-qualified name of the module (the key of the module in sys.modules) in which this object can be found.

  • attribute_path (tuple[str, ...]) – Sequence of attributes identifying this object, separated by dots (“.”). For instance, if this is [“foo”, “bar”] then we expect to find the object at “{module_name}.foo.bar”.

retrieve([forgiving])

Retrieves the object at this path.
