How do I get the list of all the available built-in mechanisms?

Hi,
I was wondering if I can view all the available built-in mechanisms?

The documentation tells us accessing specific mechanisms as in

import arbor
cat = arbor.default_catalogue()
mech = cat['expsyn']

or checking if a mechanism exists with

if 'hh' in arbor.default_catalogue():
  print("Found HH mechanism.")

But these cases assumes that the user already knows the name of the mechanism. How can I view all the available built-in mechanisms?

You should be able to iterate over the catalogue and get the names of the mechanisms:

for mech in arbor.default_catalogue(): 
  print(mech)

Thanks so much. It was silly of me not to figure it out :)

No problem! 🙂
