Unable to get a list of installed Python modules

Question

I would like to get a list of Python modules, which are in my Python installation (UNIX server).

How can you get a list of Python modules installed in your computer?

Answer 1

From the shell

ls site-packages

If that's not helpful, you can do this.

import sys
import os
for p in sys.path:
    print os.listdir( p )

And see what that produces.

Answer 2

help('modules')

in a Python shell/prompt.
