Just wondering where the API is for the python module splunk.Intersplunk (used for making scripts that work on streams of events).

I couldn't find it on docs or Answers, but you can get a man-page style listing of the module by doing the following:

$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk cmd python
(in python interpreter)
import splunk.Intersplunk
help(splunk.Intersplunk)
(when done, press q to exit the help screen, and ctrl-D or ctrl-Z to exit python)

This was asked a very long time ago, but i'm putting this here so other people can see it. This appears to have all of the common splunk imports.

If you are using an IDE such as eclipse and want to take advantage of its intellisense while working with these Splunk imports, just add the "site-packages" folder as an external source dependency.

Google find all old posts. Here's another update. In v6.6.3 I found the site-packages in
$Splunk_Home/lib/python2.7/site-packages/splunk
