Saspy Table Names in the Library

Question

I want to use SASPy to put the names of tables within a library into a list as strings.

I tried this but sasdata() module does not work on my computer:

sas = saspy.SASsession()

tables = sas.sasdata(library=library_name).list_tables()

for table in tables:
    print(table)

Answer 1

list_tables() is a method of the SAS session object. The way you're using this is not a valid use of sasdata(). The corrected code is below.

sas    = saspy.SASsession()
tables = sas.list_tables('sashelp')

for table, typ in tables:
    print(table)
