How to check whether numpy function supported in numba?

Numba Support: How do I do ...?

Does Numba support to check whether a numpy function is supported?

For example, here I has a NumPy function

import numpy as np
import numba as nb

nb.issupport(np.dot)

Hi - I am not aware if this is supported from the Python interpreter. However the numpy supported functions docs are quite good. See Supported NumPy features — Numba 0.50.1 documentation.

Hi,

as @ryanchien I am not aware of such a function, but I do think it is a cool idea.

Maybe not the highest priority, but why not make a feature request over on Github :slight_smile:

It may be possible to write a “helper” function for this. It’s important to remember that “support” for a function isn’t just about the function itself but the types it is called with. For example, np.dot is reasonably well supported for array types, but if you call it with two integers it won’t (currently) compile!

As suggested by @Hannes, a Github feature request would be welcomed.
