pathchain – chainable extension of pathlib.Path

During a data science project and building modular functions with the Dataset.pipe methods provided by xarray.Dataset, a subclass of pathlib.Path was written to make a path pipeline combining Path.joinpath and Path.mkdir.

Instead of copying this class between projects, it is made available as a package on PyPI.

A similar approach can be found in the ubelt.Path class from the ubelt package, although ubelt provides a variety of different extensions to the standard library, and subclasses str instead of pathlib.Path.

Install

Install the package using pip:

pip install pathchain
