byt 1.1.0

Installation

Just run

pip install byt

to get the most recent stable version.

Usage

The two entry points are the byt.Byt and byt.DByt classes which automatically load depending on the python version you’re running.

The only difference between Byt and DByt is that str(Byt) will print the ASCII representation of the string while str(DByt) – D like display – will print its corresponding hexadecimal values. These classes are full inter-operable.

You’ll just use it like this:

from byt import Byt

>> b = Byt('hello world!')
>> print(b)
Byt('hello world!')
>> (Byt(1,2) + Byt("\x01\x02") + Byt([1,2])).hex()
'01 02 01 02 01 02'
>> print(b.hex())
68 65 6c 6c 6f 20 77 6f 72 6c 64 21
>> eval(repr(b)) == b
True
>> print(Byt('str1') + 'str2')
TypeError: can't concat Byt to str
>> byt.Byt('str1')[2:].ints()
[114, 49]


from byt import DByt

>> b = DByt('hello world!')
>> print(b)
68 65 6c 6c 6f 20 77 6f 72 6c 64 21
>> eval(repr(b)) == b
True

# inter-compatibility

>> DByt('yes') == Byt('yes')
True
>> DByt('yes') + Byt('no')
DByt('yesno')
>> print(DByt('yes') + Byt('no'))

Documentation

All the options are documented in the docstrings for the classes. These can be viewed in a Python shell using:

>> from byt import Byt, DByt
>> print(Byt.__doc__)
>> print(DByt.__doc__)

or, in IPython using:

>> from byt import Byt
>> Byt?
>> DByt?
