srtfilter 0.1.1

No project description provided

srtfilter

Parser for SubRip (SRT) subtitle format and framework for utilities that manipulate it.

Install from PyPI: srtfilter.

Usage

CLI tool

Parse and reproduce an SRT file (output goes to stdout):

srtfilter input.srt

Break lines automatically (to handle existing files with poor line breaks):

srtfilter --filter rebreak_lines input.srt

More filters can be added in the src/srtfilter/filters directory.

Library

import srtfilter.parse as srtparse
import sys

with open("input.srt") as f:
    srt = srtparse.SRT.from_str(f.read())

for event in srt.events:
    print(event.start, event.end, event.content)
    event.content = event.content.upper() # for example

# srt.__str__() produces a valid SRT file from the parsed representation
sys.stdout.write(str(srt))

Roadmap

• Parse SRT
• Make CLI tool modular
• Add filter for breaking lines
• Parse timecodes and allow arithmetic with them
• More filters? As and when use-cases emerge
