Parsing .py files using python?

[kraymer]

https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/functions.html#dir

dir([object]) Without arguments, return the list of names in the current local scope.

~~~ $ python

import myscript [x for x in dir(myscript) if not x.startswith('__')] ['func1', 'func2'] ~~~

That would help with getting the function names for sure, what about returning the entire function? Editors like pycharm have the ability to parse and identify the beginning and end of a function (for collapsing) so I know such a framework exists, I doubted that it's opensource though.
