I'm trying to get Python to list all modules in a namespace package.
I have the following file structure:
cwd
|--a
| `--ns
| |--__init__.py
| `--amod.py
|--b
| `--ns
| |--__init__.py
| `--bmod.py
`--c
`--ns
|--__init__.py
`--cmod.py
Each __init__.py defines it's package as a namespace package by having the following line:
__import__('pkg_resources').declare_namespace(__name__)
The amod module contains a class A, bmod contains another class B and cmod contains the C class.
When having a clean environment the following happens:
>>> import inspect, sys, glob
>>> sys.path += glob.glob('*')
>>> import ns
>>> inspect.getmembers(ns, inspect.ismodule)
[]
As you can see, the modules are not listed.
Now when I import the modules manually and then call the inspect again:
>>> inspect.getmembers(ns, inspect.ismodule)
[('amod', <module 'ns.amod' from 'a/ns/amod.pyc'>), ('bmod', <module 'ns.bmod' from 'b/ns/bmod.pyc'>), ('cmod', <module 'ns.cmod' from 'c/ns/cmod.pyc'>)]
Now I'd like the inspect call to work without importing the modules manually, so how can I achieve this?
