NAME

stubgen - Generate draft stubs for Python modules.

DESCRIPTION

usage: stubgen [-h] [--py2] [more options, see -h]
[-m MODULE] [-p PACKAGE] [files ...]

Generate draft stubs for modules. Stubs are generated in directory ./out, to avoid overriding files with manual changes. This directory is assumed to exist.

positional arguments:

files
generate stubs for given files or directories

optional arguments:

-h, --help
show this help message and exit
--py2
run in Python 2 mode (default: Python 3 mode)
--ignore-errors
ignore errors when trying to generate stubs for modules
--no-import
don't import the modules, just parse and analyze them (doesn't work with C extension modules and might not respect __all__)
--parse-only
don't perform semantic analysis of sources, just parse them (only applies to Python modules, might affect quality of stubs)
--include-private
generate stubs for objects and members considered private (single leading underscore and no trailing underscores)
--doc-dir PATH
use .rst documentation in PATH (this may result in better stubs in some cases; consider setting this to DIR/Python-X.Y.Z/Doc/library)
--search-path PATH
specify module search directories, separated by ':' (currently only used if --no-import is given)
--python-executable PATH
use Python interpreter at PATH (only works for Python 2 right now)
-o PATH, --output PATH
change the output directory [default: out]
-m MODULE, --module MODULE
generate stub for module; can repeat for more modules
-p PACKAGE, --package PACKAGE
generate stubs for package recursively; can be repeated
