I tried ast module and it passes my test cases but I found another case since
object.__name__ returns unqualified name thus matching against nested class
names might conflict with the ones on the top level. Example is below where
there is Spam at the module level and NestedA.Spam which is defined inside
another class. getsource(NestedA.Spam) returns the source for Spam which is
also unexpected. It seems ast module also doesn't call visit_ClassDef on nested
class definitions thus my approach also couldn't detect NestedA.Spam and
returns source for Spam. I wish class objects also had some kind of code
attribute similar to functions so that line number is attached. I don't know
the internals so I might be wrong here. I am adding Yury.
import inspect
class Egg:
def func(self):
pass
class NestedA:
class Egg:
pass
print(inspect.getsource(NestedA.Egg))
print(inspect.getsource(Egg))
# Output
class Egg:
def func(self):
pass
class Egg:
def func(self):
pass
