🐍 Copy Python Qualified Path
A Visual Studio Code extension that adds a right-click menu option to copy the fully-qualified Python path of a class or method — just like PyCharm.
🔗 From this:
# File: src/utils/mymodule.py
class MyClass:
def get_numbers(self):
pass
📋 To this copied string:
src.utils.mymodule.MyClass.get_numbers
✨ Features
- ✅ Adds
Copy Qualified Path to the right-click context menu.
- ✅ Automatically detects the Python module path based on your project structure.
- ✅ Works with both classes and functions.
- ✅ Detects the enclosing class of a method automatically.
🛠️ Installation
From Marketplace
Coming soon: Marketplace Link
Local .vsix file
code --install-extension copy-python-qualified-path-0.0.1.vsix
🚀 Usage
- Open any
.py file in your project.
- Right-click on a class or method name.
- Select
Copy Qualified Path.
- The path will be copied in the format:
your.module.path.ClassName.method_name
⚙️ How It Works
- Determines the Python module path by resolving the file's location relative to the project root (
.git, .vscode, pyproject.toml, etc.).
- Parses the current line to extract class or method definitions.
- If only a method is selected, attempts to find the enclosing class upward in the file.

🙋 FAQ

A: It walks up the directory tree looking for .git, .vscode, or pyproject.toml.
