scripthelper 1.0

Helper module for creating simple Python 3 scripts

scripthelper

Helper module for simple command line Python scripts

Basic usage

import scripthelper

logger = scripthelper.bootstrap()

logger.critical('critical message')
logger.error('error message')
logger.warning('warning message')
logger.info('info message')
logger.verbose('verbose message')
logger.debug('debug message')
logger.spam('spam message')

It just works, and adds --verbose and --quiet command line options, too.

Adding other command line parameters

import scripthelper

logger = scripthelper.bootstrap_to_logger()

scripthelper.add_argument('-n', '--name', help='Name to greet')
args = scripthelper.parse_args()

if args.name:
    logger.debug('Name was provided')
    logger.info(f'Hello {args.name}')
else:
    logger.warning('Name was not provided')

Progressbar works with logging, too

import scripthelper
import time

logger = scripthelper.bootstrap()

logger.info('Doing the calculations...')
for i in scripthelper.progressbar(range(200)):
    if i % 20 == 0:
        logger.verbose(f'Iteration {i}')
    if i % 5 == 0:
        logger.debug(f'Iteration {i}')
    logger.spam(f'Iteration {i}')
    time.sleep(0.05)
logger.info('Done')
