Getting list of parameter names inside python function
Well we don't actually need inspect
here.
>>> func = lambda x, y: (x, y)
>>>
>>> func.__code__.co_argcount
2
>>> func.__code__.co_varnames
('x', 'y')
>>>
>>> def func2(x,y=3):
... print(func2.__code__.co_varnames)
... pass # Other things
...
>>> func2(3,3)
('x', 'y')
>>>
>>> func2.__defaults__
(3,)
For Python 2.5 and older, use func_code
instead of __code__
, and func_defaults
instead of __defaults__
.
locals()
returns a dictionary with local names:
def func(a, b, c):
print(locals().keys())
prints the list of parameters. If you use other local variables those will be included in this list. But you could make a copy at the beginning of your function.
