💖 ISORT-IDENTIFY-IMPORTS 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for isort-identify-imports — it's a User Command, it lives in section 1 of the manual, and its whole personality is finding Python import definitions. no cap. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

isort-identify-imports — find Python import definitions 🔍

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

here's the whole vibe, exactly how you'd type it:

usage: isort-identify-imports [-h] [--top-only] [--follow-links]
[--unique |

--packages | --modules | --attributes]
       files [files ...]

so what does it do? it gets all the import definitions out of a given file. that's it, that's the whole thing. and here's the cute part — if you pass - as the first argument, that means stdin. iconic behavior honestly. 💅

🎀 positional arguments:

  • files — one or more Python source files to go hunting through for imports. give it as many as you want, it's greedy like that. ✨

🦋 OPTIONS 🦋

  • -h, --help — shows this help message and then dips. classic.
  • --top-only — only identifies the imports that show up before functions or classes. like, top of the file only, don't be nosy. 🙈
  • --unique — if true, isort will only identify unique imports. no dupes allowed, we're keeping it exclusive. 👑
  • --packages — if true, isort will only identify the unique top level modules imported. just the big-picture girlies. 🌈
  • --modules — if true, isort will only identify the unique modules imported. one step deeper, still no repeats. 💜
  • --attributes — if true, isort will only identify the unique attributes imported. going all the way down to the attribute level, we love a detail-oriented queen. 🍓

⭐ target options:

  • --follow-links — tells isort to follow symlinks that it runs into when it's running recursively. it's giving "yes, follow the link bestie, see where it goes." 🧚

and that's the whole page, bestie!! 🎀 no notes, you're gonna slay with this. this was isort-identify-imports version 6.0.0 from February 2025, and it's a User Commands manual page. go forth and identify those imports, periodt. 💖✨🦋
