oneliner 0.2.1

practical python one-liners

This module tries to improve Python’s usefulness as a tool for writing shell one-liners.

# show line numbers
python -m oneliner -ne '"%5d: %s" % (NR, _)' < input.txt

# convert unix timestamp to something more human readable
date +%s | pyl -j ' => ' -line '_, datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(int(_))'
# 1355256353 => 2012-12-11 22:05:53

# triple space a file
pyl -ne 'line + "\n"*2' < input.txt

# double space only non-blank lines:
pyl -ne '_ if re.match("^$", _) else _+"\n"' input.txt
