hackytools 0.2.1

Tools that are hacky. Obviously.

hackytools

Hacky Tools, by Hackysack (I'll never get tired of that joke.)

Installation

You can install this package via the command:

pip install hackytools

What do I get?

So far, not much. But I promise that I'm working hard at gathering a bunch of my homemade tools.

For right now, you get a couple of different hacky decorators, a spritesheet/stylesheet generator (mainly for subreddit CSS), and a command line tool (currently, only a single command).

Decorators

@elapsed / @bestof

Two decorators made for quickly timing a function. @elapsed only times the function once, and @bestof defaults to best of 7, but you can specify any number. Here's an example of how to use them.

from hackytools import elapsed, bestof
import time

@elapsed
def fun1():
    time.sleep(.5)
    return

@bestof
def fun2():
    time.sleep(.25)
    return

fun1()
fun2()

# Output
# 'fun1' elapsed: 500.53 ms
# 'fun2' elapsed (best of 7): avg: 250.35 ms | best: 250.28 ms | worst: 250.63 ms

The timing decorator also automatically converts the time returned into a sensible unit, for optimal viewing pleasure.

Command Line Commands

whatsmyip

Use this at the command line to get your public IP address. This is just a convenience command due to me getting tired of having to specifically search "whats my ip ipv4" on Google. If I'm going to do some of the legwork, I may as well make it easy on myself. You can also get your local IP. Simply use it like:

(Example of bash prompt)

$ whatsmyip
$ 123.45.67.89

$ whatsmyip local
$ 192.168.0.69

(Example of cmd prompt)

C:\Users\user\Desktop>whatsmyip
$ 123.45.67.89

C:\Users\user\Desktop>whatsmyip local
$ 192.168.0.69

Spritesheet/stylesheet Generation Tool

spriteit

(Detailed how-to coming soon. Sorry.)

Misc.

You also get a variety of functions to aid you in your hacky coding adventure. (Detailed documentation coming soon. Sorry!)

More

I have more planned. I have a changelog planned, so I don't clutter the README. I have docs planned, to also avoid cluttering the README. Some of these may already be in effect. I don't know, I'm not God. Jeez. (The changelog is in effect, though.)
