Project description
reprec: Recursively replace strings in files and other goodies
Command line tool for text files.
Tools
Up to now there are these tools:
reprec: Replace strings in text files. Can work recursive in a directory tree
setops: Set operations (union, intersection, …) for line based files.
reprec
The tool reprec replaces strings in text files:
===> reprec --help Usage: reprec [-p|--pattern] p [-i|--insert] i [-f|--filename regex] [-n|--no-regex] [-v|--verbose] [-a|--ask] [--print-lines] [--dotall] [--ignorecase] [--novcexclude] [--files-from file|-] [--ignore regex] dirs dirs: Directories or files for replacing. Use is '.' for current dir. pattern: Regex pattern. insert: Text which gets inserted filename: Regex matching the filename. E.g. '.*\.py' no-regex: Normal string replacement will be used. This means you can use '.', '*', '[' without quoting verbose: Print the number of changes for each file print-lines: Print the old and the new line for each change. Not available if --dotall is used. dotall: In regular expressions '.' matches newlines, too. Not supported with --ask and --print-lines. ignorecase: ... novcexclude: Don't exclude the directories called '.svn' or 'CVS'. By default they get ignored. ask: Aks before replacing (interactive). files-from: Read filenames from file or stdin if '-'. Skip directories. ignore: Ignore lines that match a regular expression. This options can be given several times. Example: reprec --pattern '(xml)' --insert '\1\1' . -->This will replace all 'xml' with 'xmlxml' Or, shorter: reprec '(xml)' '\1\1' Example2: find -mtime -1 -name '*.py' | reprec --files-from=- foo bar The Perl Compatible Regular Expresssions are explained here: http://docs.python.org/lib/re-syntax.html The files are created by moving (os.rename()) FILE_RANDOMINTEGER to FILE. This way no half written files will be left, if the process gets killed. If the process gets killed one FILE_RANDOMINTEGER may be left in the filesystem.
setops
The tool setops provides set operations (union, intersection, …) for line based files:
usage: setops [-h] set1 operator set2 Operators: union Aliases: | + or intersection Aliases: & and difference Aliases: - minus symmetric_difference Aliases: ^ Examples #Show all files in directory "a" which are not in directory "b": setops <(cd a; find ) - <(cd b; find ) # Create some files for testing echo foo > foo.txt echo bar > bar.txt echo foobar > foobar.txt # All files minus files containing "foo" user@host$ setops <(ls *.txt) - <(grep -l foo *.txt) # All files containing "foo" or "bar" minus files which contain "foobar" setops <(setops <(grep -l bar *.txt) + <(grep -l foo *.txt)) - <(grep -l foobar *.txt) positional arguments: set1 operator set2 optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit
