Combining the functionality of `nameof` with `jsobj`?

[oliversheridanmethven]

I have a wrapper this is nearly identical to the helper jsobj, but I noticed today it falls short in one regard, which is that it doesn't have the full power of nameof when it comes to getting the "full/base name" of the object that was put in.

What jsobj does:

a, b = 1, 2
jsobj(a, b) # {'a': 1, 'b': 2}

What nameof can do:

func.a.b = 1
nameof(func.a.b, vars_only=False) # 'func.a.b'

What I would like to have

a = 1
func.a.b = 2
some_function(a, func.a.b) # {'a': 1, 'func.a.b': 2}

Perhaps there could be a keyword keep_base argument added to jsobj along the lines of:

def jsobj(*args, keep_base=True, **kwargs): ...

I appreciate this would add a blind spot to the function.

Is something like this possible with the existing setup?

With v0.13.2:

x = lambda: None
x.b = 2
obj = jsobj(a, x.b)
assert obj == {"a": 1, "b": 2}
obj1 = jsobj(a, x.b, vars_only=False)
assert obj1 == {"a": 1, "x.b": 2}

If we have a variable "vars_only" to capture, pass it as a positional argument:

vars_only = 3
obj2 = jsobj(vars_only, x.b)
assert obj2 == {"vars_only": 3, "b": 2}
obj3 = jsobj(vars_only, x.b, vars_only=False)
assert obj3 == {"vars_only": 3, "x.b": 2}
