jupyterlab-python-bytecode

JupyterLab extension to inspect Python Bytecode.

Try it online

Try the extension in your browser with Binder:

Prerequisites

To install JupyterLab:

conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlab

Installation

jupyter labextension install jupyterlab-python-bytecode

Features Contributing

See CONTRIBUTING.md to know how to contribute and setup a development environment.

How it works

Disassembling the Python code is done by connecting to a kernel, and sending the following code for evaluation from the lab extension:

import dis

dis.dis(code_to_evaluate)

As mentioned in the documentation, there is not guarantee on the stability of the bytecode across Python versions:

Bytecode is an implementation detail of the CPython interpreter. No guarantees are made that bytecode will not be added, removed, or changed between versions of Python. Use of this module should not be considered to work across Python VMs or Python releases.

Example

For example, if the Python file contains the following lines:

import math

 

print(math.pi)

The following code will be sent to the kernel for evaluation:

import dis

dis.dis("""

import math

 

print(math.pi)

""")

Which will return (example for CPython 3.6.6):

  1           0 LOAD_CONST               0 (0)

              2 LOAD_CONST               1 (None)

              4 IMPORT_NAME              0 (math)

              6 STORE_NAME               0 (math)

 

  3           8 LOAD_NAME                1 (print)

             10 LOAD_NAME                0 (math)

             12 LOAD_ATTR                2 (pi)

             14 CALL_FUNCTION            1

             16 POP_TOP

             18 LOAD_CONST               1 (None)

             20 RETURN_VALUE

Comparing versions of CPython

If you have several versions of Python installed on your machine (let's say in different conda environments), you can use the extension to check how the bytecode might differ.

The following example illustrates the introduction of the new CALL_METHOD opcode introduced in CPython 3.7:
