would this work?

PyObject *mod_sys;

mod_sys = PyImport_ImportModule( "sys" ); /* new ref */ dict = PyModule_GetDict( mod_sys ); /* borrowed ref */

PyObject *key, *value; int pos = 0;

if (dict) { while (PyDict_Next(dict, &pos, &key, &value)) { /* do stuff here */ } }

is there a tp_getattr equivalent for module? i want to dynamically check if an object exists in a module space dynamically and return it if it does.

currently i have mymodule.getattr("foo") where getattr is my lookup function plugged thru PyMethodDef/Py_ModuleInit

i want to be able to access foo directly, like so: mymodule.foo

You don't need to call tp_getattr yourself, PyObject_GetAttr will do it for you. If you need to check whether an object exists in a module without accessing it using mymodule.name, simply use getattr on the module object like you'd do with any other object. For example:

import mymodule name = 'foo' if hasattr(mymodule, name): print 'mymodule has', name, 'and its value is', getattr(mymodule, name) else: print 'no', name, 'in mymodule'

Equivalent C code would use PyObject_HasAttr/PyObject_GetAttr or its *String variants.
