This is a set of tools to assist in the examination and grokking of code. It is meant to be installed in a user's site-packages, and imported when needed to inspect objects, print isolated stack traces, and generally 'get a sense' of what code is doing.
Install or symlink into your user site-packages directory.
In the module you're working on, import like:
from bushwhacker.bushwhacker import *
this imports a series of functions that can be used as follows:
object inspection works on anything you feed it; lists, dicts, objects, functions. It prints out a list of all the 'stuff' in the 'thing'.
It's ouput is very verbose.
thing = Thing() # thing we want to know more about
o.inspect(thing)...when run, this will print to stdout something looking like:
__add__ :: <method-wrapper '__add__' of list object at 0x100b39cc0>
__class__ :: <class 'list'>
