display python docstring

[elmbeech]

Hi All,

This is an astonishing library! I am very impressed.

This here is more of a question or feature request (if this is not possible) than a bug report.

Is there a way to display the docstring of a python function?
I imagine something like this:

library("reticulate")

os <- import("os") 

# a way to show the docstring
help(os$system)
os$system?
?os$system
os$system$__doc__

That would be the cherry on the top!
I read the README and could not find how such a thing possibly would be done.

Thank you, Elmar

Yes! Take a look at reticulate::py_help().

Thank you, @t-kalinowski !
This is exactly what I was hoping for.
You made my day :" ).

I will close the issue.
