guessenv 0.2

Parse Python files and look for required environment variables

This is a small program which tries to guess what environment variables will be needed by other Python programs.

This tool should work on Python 2.7 and Python 3.3+

Usage

guessenv [-h] [-v] [-q] [-O] [-A] [-x EXCLUDE] [-X] files [files ...]

By default, guessenv will walk through all the files and directories specified on the command line, look for patterns which seem to be searching for an environment variable, and print out all of the "required" environment variables (those accessed through something akin to os.environ[...]).

If invoked with the -O argument, it will also print out optional environment variables (accessed through os.getenv(...) or os.environ.get(...).

If invoked with the -A argument, it will exit non-zero if any "required" environment variables are not currently present in the environment.

If invoked with the -v argument, it will print more verbose information about where variables were found.

If invoked with the -q argument, it will print nothing (unless -A is also passed and any variables are missing)

The -x and -X arguments allow you to exclude files or directories when doing recursive searches.
