"""The inspection module provides the :func:`.inspect` function,
which delivers runtime information about a wide variety
of SQLAlchemy objects, both within the Core as well as the
ORM.
The :func:`.inspect` function is the entry point to SQLAlchemy's
public API for viewing the configuration and construction
of in-memory objects. Depending on the type of object
passed to :func:`.inspect`, the return value will either be
a related object which provides a known interface, or in many
cases it will return the object itself.
The rationale for :func:`.inspect` is twofold. One is that
it replaces the need to be aware of a large variety of "information
getting" functions in SQLAlchemy, such as :meth:`.Inspector.from_engine`,
:func:`.orm.attributes.instance_state`, :func:`.orm.class_mapper`,
and others. The other is that the return value of :func:`.inspect`
is guaranteed to obey a documented API, thus allowing third party
tools which build on top of SQLAlchemy configurations to be constructed
in a forwards-compatible way.
.. versionadded:: 0.8 The :func:`.inspect` system is introduced
as of version 0.8.
