Let's try, using the standard module wave.py which imports class Chunk
from chunk.py:
py> import inspect
py> import wave
py> inspect.getmembers(wave, inspect.isclass)
[('Chunk', <class chunk.Chunk at 0x00ADEC00>), ('Error', <class
'wave.Error'>), ...
py> dir(wave)
['Chunk', 'Error', 'WAVE_FORMAT_PCM', 'Wave_read', 'Wave_write', ...
Chunk appears on both. (That's not a surprise, since inspect.getmembers
uses dir() internally).
If you want to include *only* classes defined in the module itself, you
could test the __module__ attribute:
py> wave.Chunk.__module__
'chunk'
py> wave.Wave_read.__module__
'wave'
How to filter when the class is defined deeply inside a package is left as
an exercise to the reader :)
