Join two strings into a callable string 'moduleA' + 'func1' into moduleA.func1()

Question

I got this:

tu = ("func1", "func2", "func3")

And with the operation I am looking for I would get this for the first string:

moduleA.func1()

I know how to concatenate strings, but is there a way to join into a callable string?

Answer 1

getattr(moduleA, 'func1')() == moduleA.func1()

Answer 2

You should use getattr builtin function. Try:

getattr(moduleA, 'func1')()

Answer 3

If you mean get a function or method on a class or module, all entities (including classes, modules, functions, and methods) are objects, so you can do a func = getattr(thing 'func1') to get the function, then func() to call it.
