Replacement for tr/sed replace in python

Project description

PyPI version

riptr

Text substitution similar to tr or sed s// but without the frustration. Uses plain old python regex style.

Installing

Now deployed to pypi, install with:

pip install riptr

This adds the riptr and rtr cli tools to your python environment path.

Usage

echo "some example text 1234" > test.file

# default output is stdout
riptr -m "^(.*?)([\d]{2})" -s "\g<1>56" test.file
some example text 5634

# specify patch mode 'p'
riptr -m "^(.*?)([\d]{2})" -s "\g<1>56" -o p test.file
