Exportall?

Here’s a version of the export-all code chunk from @stevengj that is updated for Julia v1.0. (Well, for v1.4 at least. I haven’t tested on v1.0).

# export all
for n in names(@__MODULE__; all=true)
    if Base.isidentifier(n) && n ∉ (Symbol(@__MODULE__), :eval, :include)
        @eval export $n
    end
end

When I’m developing a new package, I find it pretty convenient to just export all the functions in the package. Later when the code stabilizes I can choose which functions to export, but initially I’m usually the only user of my package and it’s easier just to export everything.

Here’s the new code in action:

julia> module Foo
           x = 1
           y = 2
       
           for n in names(@__MODULE__; all=true)
               if Base.isidentifier(n) && n ∉ (Symbol(@__MODULE__), :eval, :include)
                   @eval export $n
               end
           end
       end
Main.Foo

julia> using .Foo

julia> x
1

julia> y
2
