Find functions explicitly defined in a module (python)

by

Are you looking for something like this?

import sys, inspect

def is_mod_function(mod, func):
    return inspect.isfunction(func) and inspect.getmodule(func) == mod

def list_functions(mod):
    return [func.__name__ for func in mod.__dict__.itervalues() 
            if is_mod_function(mod, func)]


print 'functions in current module:\n', list_functions(sys.modules[__name__])
print 'functions in inspect module:\n', list_functions(inspect)

EDIT: Changed variable names from ‘meth’ to ‘func’ to avoid confusion (we’re dealing with functions, not methods, here).
