Tiny helper for command-line python
Project description
# command line tool #
Use like this:
cat data.tsv | cut -c4,9 | py “print(‘DELETE FROM sites WHERE id IN ({0})’.format(‘,’.join(IN)))” | psql testdb admin
Where the py bit replaces the slightly longer command:
python -c “import sys; print ‘DELETE FROM sites WHERE id IN ({0})’.format(‘,’.join(sys.stdin))”
I made this because I am tired of reading man pages for awk and sed and others; I already know python, but I am also tired of typing import sys, etc repeatedly.
os, sys, csv and json are pre-imported, as well as unicode_literals and print_function from the future.
Aditionally the following are imported and renamed:
sys.stdin -> IN sys.stdout -> OUT functools -> FT itertools -> IT operator -> OP pprint.pprint -> PP
