Examples

Query Operations

# List functions in a module
ast-py list-functions -m src/auth.py

# List methods in a class
ast-py list-functions -m src/auth.py -c AuthService

# List classes in a module
ast-py list-classes -m src/models.py

# Show a symbol with context (supports scoped naming)
ast-py show -m src/auth.py -n AuthService.login

# Find a symbol
ast-py find-symbol -m src/auth.py -n validate_token -t function

Insert Operations

# Insert a simple function
ast-py insert-function -m src/auth.py -n validate_token -p "token:str" -r bool -b "return len(token) > 10"

# Insert a method into a class
ast-py insert-function -m src/auth.py -c AuthService -n check_permissions -p "user:User, action:str" -r bool

# Insert with advanced parameters
ast-py insert-function -m src/utils.py -n process -p "data, /, strict:bool=True, *, encoding:str='utf-8', **kwargs"

# Insert with decorators
ast-py insert-function -m src/api.py -n get_user -p "user_id:int" -d "@route('/users/<int:user_id>'), @login_required"

# Insert async function
ast-py insert-function -m src/async_ops.py -n fetch_data --is-async -p "url:str" -r "dict"

# Insert with docstring
ast-py insert-function -m src/auth.py -n login -p "user:str, password:str" --docstring "Authenticate user and return session"

# Insert a class
ast-py insert-class -m src/models.py -n User -b "BaseModel" --docstring "User model" --class-vars "id:int, name:str"

# Insert a class variable
ast-py insert-class-variable -m src/models.py -c User -n count -t int -v 0

# Insert __slots__
ast-py insert-slots -m src/models.py -c User --slots id name email

# Insert __all__
ast-py insert-dunder-all -m src/auth.py --names login logout authenticate

# Insert an import
ast-py insert-import -m src/auth.py --from typing --name "Optional, Dict"

Update Operations

# Update function body
ast-py update-function -m src/auth.py -n validate_token -b "return token is not None"

# Replace entire parameter list
ast-py update-function -m src/auth.py -n login -p "self, user_id:int, timeout:int=30"

# Add parameters
ast-py update-function -m src/auth.py -n login --add-params "remember:bool=False"

# Remove parameters
ast-py update-function -m src/auth.py -n login --remove-params deprecated_param

# Change return type
ast-py update-function -m src/auth.py -n get_user --return-type "Optional[User]"

# Add decorators
ast-py update-function -m src/api.py -n endpoint --add-decorators "@cache(3600)"

# Remove decorators
ast-py update-function -m src/api.py -n endpoint --remove-decorators old_decorator

# Update docstring
ast-py update-function -m src/auth.py -n login --docstring "Authenticate user"

Delete Operations

# Delete a function
ast-py delete-function -m src/auth.py -n old_function

# Delete a class
ast-py delete-class -m src/models.py -n DeprecatedModel

Rename Operations

# Rename a function
ast-py rename-symbol -m src/auth.py -o old_name -n new_name -t function

# Rename a class
ast-py rename-symbol -m src/models.py -o OldUser -n User -t class

Utility Operations

# Validate syntax
ast-py validate -m src/auth.py

# Format code
ast-py format -m src/auth.py

# Batch operations from JSON
ast-py batch -m src/auth.py --json ops.json

Parameter Syntax

The -p/--params argument supports full Python parameter syntax:

positional, /, pos_or_kw, *, kw_only, **kwargs

Examples:

• Basic: -p "x, y, z"
• With types: -p "x:int, y:str, z:float"
• With defaults: -p "x:int=0, y:str='hello'"
• Positional-only: -p "a, b, /, c, d" (a, b are positional-only)
• Keyword-only: -p "*, c, d=1" (c, d must be keyword args)
• *args/**kwargs: -p "*args:int, **kwargs:dict"

Structured Body Format

For multi-line code with proper indentation, use JSON arrays:

# Nested lists represent indentation levels
ast-py insert-function -m src/auth.py -n process -p "data:dict" -b '["if data:", ["result = process(data)", "return result"], "return None"]'

Result:

def process(data: dict):
    if data:
        result = process(data)
        return result
    return None

Scoped Naming

Use dot notation for nested symbols:

# Class method
ast-py show -m src/auth.py -n AuthService.login

# Nested class
ast-py show -m src/models.py -n OuterClass.InnerClass
