Capture code blocks while executing them

CodeCapture

CodeCapture is a context manager that enables capturing blocks of code while running it. This is meant for educational purposes, e.g., extracting blocks of code from a file for inclusion in readers.

>>> from code_capture import CodeCapture
>>> with CodeCapture("foo"):
        foo = 3
        bar = "test "
        foobar = foo * bar
        print(foobar)
test test test
>>> print(CodeCapture.store.foo)
foo = 3
bar = "test "
foobar = foo * bar
print(foobar)

Context manager

CodeCapture captures all code within the associated code block, based on the indentation of the code block.

Bunch

The capture code blocks are stored in the CodeCapture.store bunch. This allows for dot-access to the stored values. However, you can also treat CodeCapture.store as a dictionary, e.g., CodeCapture.store['foo'].
