nanobind-stubgen

Generate Python stub files (pyi) for code completion in IDEs for nanobind modules.

Installation

pip install nanobind-stubgen

Usage

Nanobind stubgen uses the inspect module to reverse engineer the module structure and detects nanobind types. The doc string of the nanobind types contains the function signature, which will be used to create the stub files.

To create pyi files for a module, first install the module and call nanobind-stubgen with the module name as first argument. Here is an example on how to generate stubs for nanogui:

nanobind-stubgen nanogui

It is possible to change the output path (by default it is the current directory) by specifying the parameter --out. To create the pyi files directly in the nanogui package directory, the following command can be used (note the changing python version):

nanobind-stubgen nanogui --out venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages

Help

usage: nanobind-stubgen [-h] [--out OUT] module
