What is mpyez

mpyez is a library made specifically to make the daily mundane tasks as easily doable as possible.

• Want to get a list of all python files in your folder? Use ListOfFilesFromExtensions class.
• Want to convert a nested list to a 1D list? Use nested_list_to_list().
• Want to convert a simple list to nested list? Use list_to_nested_list().

This library is intended to lower complexity of daily recurring tasks.

How to install

Use pip: pip install mpyez

Examples

Let's say, you want to convert a nested list

>>> my_nested_list = [[1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8], [9, 10]]

to a 1D list, with mpyez you can do it using nested_list_to_list function in ez_list module (see, Current implementations for details).

>>> nested_list_to_list(my_nested_list)

>>> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

Modules

Current implementations

1. misc
   1. is_numeric : To check if the input is numeric or not.
2. os_
   1. ListOfFilesFromExtensions : To pick files of specific extensions
   2. ListOfFilesFromNames: To pick files matching a specific name pattern.
3. list_
   1. numeric_list_to_string : To convert a list of numeric values to string.
   2. string_list_to_numeric : To convert a list of string number values to numeric.
   3. nested_list_to_list : To convert a nested list to 1D list.
   4. list_to_nested_list : To convert a simple 1D list to a nested list.
   5. join_lists : To join multiple lists into a single one
   6. Replace : To replace values in a list, either by given value or by the index.
   7. is_contained : To check if a given list is contained within another list.
   8. get_object_count: To get an object count from the list. Has an added capability of returning sorted list of objects or top N objects.
   9. sort_: To sort a list. Can also return the sort indices.
   10. remove_: To remove a value from a given list. Can also remove tuple, str, or a nested list.

4. read_files
   1. read_text_file_in_a_list: Reads an entire txt file.
   2. read_specific_lines_from_a_file: Reads specific lines (index based) from a given txt file.

Future implementations

1. read_files
   1. Whole files using generator to reduce memory issues,
   2. Implementation of reading other files, especially .csv.
2. dict_
   1. For handling dictionary manipulations methods easily. For example,
      1. updating dictionaries,
      2. index retrieval, and/or
      3. dictionary comparisons.
3. And more
