Python accessing object variable

Question

I have opened file in Python with code:

fileObject = open('file')

While debbuging in IDE I see that fileObject has many attributes such as:

_CHUNK_SIZE, _finalizing, closed, encoding, ..., name, newlines

I would like to access the attribute name, because sometimes in huge programs, file name and path are generated, and I would like to get content of that attribute.

I don't see any problem, probably you should also [try something](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15225557/get-filename-from-file-pointer), I mean, [anything](https://www.google.com/) — leoschet, Jun 15 '18 at 14:34
Sorry, but I didn't know how to translate my question and queries like "get object variable" or "get object properties" were pushing me to answers for questions like "how to pass argument to function" — J. Doe, Jun 15 '18 at 15:06
