strsplit

A flexible string splitting utility for Python that allows splitting by different strategies and filtering the results using predicates. This package is inspired by the abseil StrSplit library.

Features

• Split by a delimiter string (SplitByStr)
• Split by fixed length chunks (SplitByLength)
• Split by any character in a set (SplitByAnyChar)
• Control maximum splits with maxsplit parameter (default -1 = no limit)
• Filter out substrings via a predicate function in the main split function

Usage

from strsplit import split, SplitByStr, SplitByAnyChar, SplitByLength
# Split using a string delimiter
it = split(text="a,b,c", ",") # <=> it = split(text="a,b,c", splitter=SplitByStr(","))
print(list(it)) # --> ['a', 'b', 'c']

# Split by any chars
it = split(text="a,b;c-d", [",", ";", "-"]) # <=> it = split(text="a,b,c", splitter=SplitByAnChar(",;-"))
print(list(it)) # --> ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']

# Split by length
it = split(text="abcdef", splitter=SplitByLength(2)) # <=> it = split(text="abcdef", 2)
print(list(it)) # --> ["ab", "cd", "ef"]

# Use a predicat to filter the result 
it = split(",a,,b,c,", ",", lambda x : len(x) > 0)
print(list(it)) # --> ['a', 'b', 'c']

# Limit the number of substr
# Every splitter accepts another parameter maxsplit to limit the number of splits
it = split(text="a,b,c,d", SplitByStr(delimiter=",", maxsplit=2))
print(list(it)) # --> ['a', 'b']
