filesff 0.0.7

Files for Fun; Python Utilities

FilesFF - Files For Fun

• python package to work with file handles
• use handles of files as parameters without keeping open files
• replace file handles easily with mocks
• handle many file types with generic protocol

to install with all extras

pip install filesff[protobug,ujson,cap,msgpack,s3]

Usage

read a json from gzip compressed file:

accessor = GzippedFileHandle.of_str("./file.gz").access(JsonFormatter())
accessor.dump({"json": "data"})

write a protobuf into a temp file

pip install fileff[protobuf]

from google.protobuf.timestamp_pb2 import Timestamp

accessor = PathFileHandle.of_temp().access(ProtoBytesFileFormatter)
now = Timestamp()
now.FromDatetime(datetime.now())
accessor.dump(now)

loaded_now = accessor.load(message_cls=Timestamp)

implement new file format:

class NewFileFormatter(FullTextFileFormatter):
    def load(self, reader: IO, **_) -> AnyStr:
        return reader.read().replace("a", "e")

    def dump(self, writer: IO, value: Any, **_):
        writer.write(value.replace("e", "a"))

use it

file_accessor = PathFileHandle.of_str("./path.ae").access(NewFileFormatter())
file_accessor.dump("ababab")
