Overview

The reusables library is a reference of python functions and classes that programmers may find themselves often recreating.

It includes:

  • Cookie Management for Firefox and Chrome

  • Archive extraction (zip, tar, rar)

  • Path (file and folders) management

  • Fast logging setup

  • Namespace (dict to class modules with child recursion)

  • Friendly datetime formatting

  • Config to dict parsing

  • Common regular expressions and file extensions

  • Unique function wrappers

Reusables is designed to not require any imports outside the standard library, but can be supplemented with those found in the requirements.txt file for additional functionality.

CI tests run on:

  • Python 2.6+

  • Python 3.3+

  • Pypy

Examples are provided below, and the API documentation can always be found at readthedocs.org.

What’s in the box

General Helpers and File Management

import reusables

reusables.extract_all("test/test_structure.zip", "my_archive")
# All files in the zip will be extracted into directory "my_archive"

reusables.config_dict('my_config.cfg')
# {'Section 1': {'key 1': 'value 1', 'key2': 'Value2'}, 'Section 2': {}}

reusables.find_all_files(".", ext=reusables.exts.pictures)
# ['/home/user/background.jpg', '/home/user/private.png']

reusables.count_all_files(".")
# 405

reusables.file_hash("test_structure.zip", hash_type="sha256")
# 'bc11af55928ab89771b9a141fa526a5b8a3dbc7d6870fece9b91af5d345a75ea'

reusables.safe_path('/home/user/eViL User\0\\/newdir$^&*/new^%file.txt')
# '/home/user/eViL User__/newdir____/new__file.txt'

Namespace

Dictionary management class, similar to Bunch, but designed so that sub-dictionaries are recursively made into namespaces.

my_breakfast = {"spam": {"eggs": {"sausage": {"bacon": "yummy"}}}}
namespace_breakfast = reusables.Namespace(**my_breakfast)

print(namespace_breakfast.spam.eggs.sausage.bacon)
# yummy

print(namespace_breakfast.spam.eggs['sausage'].bacon)
# yummy

str(namespace_breakfast['spam'].eggs)
# "{'sausage': {'bacon': 'yummy'}}"

namespace_breakfast.to_dict()
#{'spam': {'eggs': {'sausage': {'bacon': 'yummy'}}}}

dict(namespace_breakfast)
# {'spam': <Namespace: {'eggs': {'sausage': {'bacon': '...>}
# This is NOT the same as .to_dict() as it is not recursive

DateTime

Easy formatting for datetime objects. It also adds auto parsing for ISO formatted time.

current_time = reusables.DateTime() # same as datetime.datetime.now(), as DateTime object

current_time.format("Wake up {son}, it's {hours}:{minutes} {periods}!"
                    "I don't care if it's a {day-fullname}, {command}!",
                    son="John",
                    command="Get out of bed!")
# "Wake up John, it's 09:51 AM! I don't care if it's a Saturday, Get out of bed!!"

Logging

logger = reusables.get_logger(__name__)
# By default it adds a stream logger to sys.stderr

logger.info("Test")
# 2016-04-25 19:32:45,542 __main__     INFO     Test

There are multiple log formatters provided, as well as additional helper functions

reusables.remove_stream_handlers(logger)
# remove_file_handlers() and remove_all_handlers() also available

stream_handler = reusables.get_stream_handler(log_format=reusables.log_detailed_format)
logger.addHandler(stream_handler)
logger.info("Example log entry")
# 2016-04-25 19:42:52,633 : 315147 MainThread : reusables.log INFO Example log entry

Because ReStructuredText tables don’t preserve whitespace (even with literals), which is important to show distinction in these formatters, here’s it in a code block instead.

Extension Groups

It’s common to be looking for a specific type of file.

if file_path.endswith(reusables.exts.pictures):
    print("{} is a picture file".format(file_path))

That’s right, str.endswith (as well as str.startswith) accept a tuple to search.

Wrappers

There are tons of wrappers for caching and saving inputs and outputs, this is a different take that requires the function returns a result not yet provided.

@reusables.unique(max_retries=100, error_text="All UIDs taken!")
def gen_small_uid():
    import random
    return random.randint(0, 100)

Common Issues

UnRAR path issues

A common error to see, especially on Windows based systems, is: “rarfile.RarCannotExec: Unrar not installed? (rarfile.UNRAR_TOOL=’unrar’)”

This is probably because unrar is not downloaded or linked properly. Download UnRAR from http://www.rarlab.com/rar_add.htm and follow these instructions before trying again: http://rarfile.readthedocs.org/en/latest/faq.html?highlight=windows#how-can-i-get-it-work-on-windows
