Pappardelle

Pappardelle is a Python module that provides helper functions for lists and dates.

Getting Started

Install the Python module with

python3 -m pip install pappardelle

Then, within your Python (.py) source code, like in this example:

from pappardelle import compare_lists

# Call the imported function:
compare_lists(
    [1, 2, 3],
    [2, 3, 5]
)

# Returns the following
{
    '=': [2, 3],
    '+': [1],
    '-': [5]
}

Examples

Example 1. Within a Server State Management application

from pappardelle import compare_lists
from pprint import pprint

desired_state = [
  {"package_name": "net-tools"},
  {"package_name": "build-essential"},
  {"package_name": "bind9-dnsutils"}
]

current_state = [
  {"package_name": "build-essential"},
  {"package_name": "squid"}
]

change_plan = compare_lists(
  desired_state,
  current_state,
  lambda x, y: x['package_name'] == y['package_name']
)

pprint(change_plan)

# Output
# {'+': [{'package_name': 'net-tools'}, {'package_name': 'bind9-dnsutils'}],
# '-': [{'package_name': 'squid'}],
# '=': [{'package_name': 'build-essential'}]}
