Project description

Usage

At the command prompt, use pype to act on each item in the file with python commands:

$ printf 'abc' | pype str.upper

ABC

Chain python functions together with !:

$ printf 'Hello'  | pype 'str.upper ! len'

5

Use ? as a placeholder for the input at each stage:

$ printf 'Hello World'  | pype 'str.split ! ?[0].upper() + "!"'

HELLO!

$ printf 'Hello World'  | pype 'str.split ! ?[0].upper() + "!" ! ?.replace("H", "J")'

JELLO!

Given a server responding to http://localhost:8080/ and a list of urls in urls.txt :

http://localhost:8080/Requester_254
http://localhost:8080/Requester_083
http://localhost:8080/Requester_128
http://localhost:8080/Requester_064
http://localhost:8080/Requester_276

Automatically import required modules and use their functions:

$ pype 'str.strip ! requests.get ! ?.text ' < urls.txt

Hello, Requester_254. You are client number 7903 for this server.
Hello, Requester_083. You are client number 7904 for this server.
Hello, Requester_128. You are client number 7905 for this server.
Hello, Requester_064. You are client number 7906 for this server.
Hello, Requester_276. You are client number 7907 for this server.

Use map to act on each input item (map is the default command). Use apply to act on the sequence of items. Finding the largest number returned from the server:

$ pype --newlines=no map 'str.strip ! requests.get ! ?.text ! ?.split()[6] ! int' apply 'max'  < urls.txt

7933

Making sequential requests is slow. Use --async to make I/O really fast (see caveats below).

$ time pype 'str.strip ! requests.get ! ?.text'  < urls.txt

Hello, Requester_254. You are client number 8061 for this server.
Hello, Requester_083. You are client number 8062 for this server.
Hello, Requester_128. You are client number 8063 for this server.
Hello, Requester_064. You are client number 8064 for this server.
Hello, Requester_276. You are client number 8065 for this server.

real  0m10.640s
user  0m0.548s
sys   0m0.022s

Making concurrent requests is much faster:

$ time pype --async 'str.strip ! treq.get ! treq.text_content'  < urls.txt

Hello, Requester_254. You are client number 8025 for this server.
Hello, Requester_083. You are client number 8025 for this server.
Hello, Requester_128. You are client number 8025 for this server.
Hello, Requester_064. You are client number 8025 for this server.
Hello, Requester_276. You are client number 8025 for this server.

real 0m2.626s

Installation

pip install python-pype

Caveats

  • pype assumes trusted command arguments and untrusted input stream data. It uses eval on your arguments, not on the input stream data. If you use exec, eval, subprocess, or similar commands, you can execute arbitrary code from the input stream.

  • --async currently works only with map, not apply and works only for a single map pipe-string, e.g. map 'str.upper ! len ! ? & 1', not for chains, e.g. map str.upper map len map '? & 1'.

Status

  • Check the issues page for open tickets.

  • This package is experimental pre-alpha and is subject to change.
