__spec__ is defined in PEP 451. If you search for "__spec__" in the docs, you get a number of hits. https://docs.python.org/3/search.html?q=__spec__&check_keywords=yes&area=default Click on the first link: https://docs.python.org/3/reference/import.html?highlight=__spec__#__spec__ but that still leaves you scratching your head as to what exactly is in __spec__. If you happen to scroll up a little bit though, you end up here: https://docs.python.org/3/reference/import.html?highlight=__spec__#module-spec and then if you follow the link to ModuleSpec, you finally get to here: https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.html#importlib.machinery.ModuleSpec and *that's* where the contents of __spec__ are defined. Not very discoverable. I propose just a couple of small documentation fixes to add "__spec__" in both of those locations so that a search lands you in a useful place. |
