aitoolz

Various Python tools, by Alex Ioannides (AI). Some of them might be useful for artificial intelligence, some of them might not.

Installing

You can install aitoolz from PyPI using

pip install aitoolz

Alternatively, you can install directly from the main branch of this repo via

pip install git+https://github.com/alexioannides/aitoolz.git@main

Where the @XXXX component of the URI can be substituted for any branch, tag or commit hash. See the pip docs for more info.

Features

A brief overview of the core tools:

Template Python Package Projects

The aitoolz.make_project module exposes the create_python_pkg_project function that can create empty Python package projects to speed-up development. This includes:

• Executable tests via PyTest.
• Fully configured code formatting and checking using Ruff and Black.
• Fully configured static type checking using MyPy.
• Dev task automation using Nox.
• Fully configured CICD using GitHub Actions.

This is an opinionated setup that reflects how I like to develop projects. This can also be called from the command line using the Make Empty Project (MEP) command - e.g.,

mep my_package

Where my_package can be replaced with any valid Python module name. Either of these commands will create a directory structure and skeleton files,

my_package
├── .github
│   └── workflows
│       ├── python-package-ci.yml
│       └── python-package-cd.yml
├── .gitignore
├── README.md
├── noxfile.py
├── pyproject.toml
├── src
│   └── my_package
│       ├── __init__.py
│       └── hello_world.py
└── tests
    └── test_hello_world.py

This has been tested to be installable and for all dev tasks automated with Nox to pass - use nox --list to see them all.

Find External Dependencies in a Python Module or Source Folder

The aitoolz.find_imports module exposes the find_imports function that returns a list of all package dependencies imported into a Python module or source folder - i.e., all dependencies that are not in the Python standard library.

This can also be called from the command line - e.g.,

find-imports src/my_package

Or,

find-imports my_module.py
