pycodes2json 1.1.0

A tool to convert Python files to a JSON file.

py2json

py2json is a Python package that scans a directory and its subdirectories for .py files, excluding hidden directories (those starting with a .), and merges their contents into a single JSON file. It simplifies the process of aggregating Python code into a structured JSON format for further analysis or processing.

Features

• Automatically scans a specified directory and its subdirectories for .py files, skipping hidden directories.
• Outputs the merged contents into a well-formatted JSON file.
• Handles exceptions for missing directories, permissions, and unexpected errors.

Installation

Install the package using pip:

pip install py2json

Usage

After installation, use the command-line interface (CLI) tool:

py2json <directory_path> <output_json_path>

Parameters

• <directory_path>: Path to the directory containing .py files.
• <output_json_path>: Path to save the resulting JSON file.

Example

Suppose you have a directory named scripts containing .py files and subdirectories. To merge them into a JSON file named output.json, run:

py2json scripts output.json

This will create a JSON file output.json with the contents of all .py files in the scripts directory and its subdirectories, excluding hidden directories.

Exception Handling

The package gracefully handles the following errors:

• FileNotFoundError: If the specified directory does not exist.
• PermissionError: If the script lacks permissions to read files or write the output file.
• Other Errors: Any unexpected errors are logged for debugging.
