pipe21 - simple functional pipes [docs]

Basic version

just copy-paste it!

Most frequently used operators. It's often easier to copypaste than install and import.

class B:
    def __init__(self, f): self.f = f
class Pipe  (B): __ror__ = lambda self, x: self.f(x)
class Map   (B): __ror__ = lambda self, x: map   (self.f, x)
class Filter(B): __ror__ = lambda self, x: filter(self.f, x)

or install using pip:

pip install pipe21

Examples

little docs

from pipe21 import *

x | Pipe(f)   == f     (x   )
x | Map(f)    == map   (f, x)
x | Filter(f) == filter(f, x)
x | Reduce(f) == reduce(f, x)

simple pipes

range(5) | Pipe(list) # [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]
range(5) | Map(str) | Pipe(''.join) # '01234'
range(5) | Filter(lambda x: x % 2 == 0) | Pipe(list) # [0, 2, 4]
range(5) | Reduce(lambda a, b: a + b) # 10

print digits

range(1_000_000) | Map(chr) | Filter(str.isdigit) | Pipe(''.join)
