Is there really any equivalent of the python's function dir() in js?

Python's dir() function reveals all the properties of an object and returns a list. This works for both functions and classes(objects). I found out that js has a console.dir() function similar to python's dir(). But this only works for objects. Not for functions.

reversed ( ) you can use Object.getOwnPropertyNames(obj) and Object.getOwnPropertyNames(obj.prototype) For example to get all the Array properties Object.getOwnPropertyNames(Array) or Object.getOwnPropertyNames(Array.protype) for Number or String: Object.getOwnPropertyNames(String.prototype) Object.getOwnPropertyNames(Number.prototype) and it works for any function too.

Use Object.keys(obj) to get all the properties of object obj.
