Inspect Recursive

Inspect Recursive is a Python package that provides functionality for inspecting the structure of Python objects recursively.

Features

• Inspect the structure of Python objects, including nested dictionaries, lists, and other iterable objects.
• Print the structure of objects as a tree, displaying their types and contents.
• Handle specific types like NumPy arrays and pandas DataFrames, if installed.

Installation

You can install Inspect Recursive using pip:

pip install inspect-recursive

Usage

inspect_object_structure

• Example 1: Inspecting a simple dictionary

import inspect_recursive as ipr

simple_dict = {"a": 1, "b": 2, "c": 3}
ipr.what(simple_dict)

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<inspector<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
- object : <class 'dict'>
  >len=3 content-type=<class 'str'> vals="['a', 'b', 'c']"
  - idx0 : <class 'str'>
    >val="'a'"
  - idx1 : <class 'str'>
    >val="'b'"
> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >

• Example 2: Inspecting a nested dictionary

import inspect_recursive as ipr
nested_dict = {"a": {"x": 1, "y": 2}, "b": {"z": 3}}
what(nested_dict)

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<inspector<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
- object : <class 'dict'>
  >len=2 content-type=<class 'str'> vals="['a', 'b']"
  - idx0 : <class 'str'>
    >val="'a'"
  - idx1 : <class 'str'>
    >val="'b'"
> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >

• Example 3: Inspecting a list of strings

list_of_strings = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
what(list_of_strings)

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<inspector<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
- object : <class 'list'>
  >len=3 content-type=<class 'str'> vals="['apple', 'banana', 'cherry']"
  - idx0 : <class 'str'>
    >val="'apple'"
  - idx1 : <class 'str'>
    >val="'banana'"
> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >

• Example 4: Inspecting a more complex object

import open3d as o3d

open3d_mesh = o3d.io.read_point_cloud(ply_filepath)

what(open3d_mesh, max_depth=6, thresh_iter_list=5, thresh_iter_dict=5)

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<inspector<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
- object : <class 'open3d.geometry.PointCloud'>
  >len=1000 content-type=<class 'open3d.utility.Vector3dVector'>
  - idx0 : <class 'open3d.utility.Vector3d'>
    >val="Vector3d(0.002537, -0.01984, -0.08411)"
  - idx1 : <class 'open3d.utility.Vector3d'>
    >val="Vector3d(-0.02286, -0.04225, -0.07801)"
  - idx2 : <class 'open3d.utility.Vector3d'>
    >val="Vector3d(-0.03108, -0.04534, -0.0755)"
  ...
  >len=3 content-type=<class 'numpy.ndarray'> ...
  >len=2 content-type=<class 'dict'> ...
  ...
