def docsources(self) -> Iterator[Documentable]: (source)

Objects that can be considered as a source of documentation.

The motivating example for having multiple sources is looking at a superclass' implementation of a method for documentation for a subclass'.

def isNameDefined(self, name: str) -> bool: (source)

Is the given name defined in the globals/locals of self-context? Only the first name of a dotted name is checked.

Returns True iff the given name can be loaded without raising `NameError`.

def _localNameToFullName(self, name: str) -> str: (source)
