yesnopy 0.0.3

yesnopy- a package by Arnav N

Simpilfies vailidating user input and return True/False based on a list of expected inputs. Also accounts for extra whitespace and capitalisation

Installation

pip install yesnopy

Usage

from yesnopy import yesnopy as yn
if yn.returnDecision(inputMessage="", forceValidInput=False, defaultValue=False):
  doSomething()
# Or just RD (if you prefer concise notation)
if yn.RD(inputMessage="", forceValidInput=False, defaultValue=False):
  doSomething()

inputMessage [STRING]: what to display when asking a question

forceVaildInput [BOOL]: Keep asking until user inputs valid input?

defaultValue [ANY]: If all else fails what should the function return? (can be string, number etc...)

userWantsCake = yn.returnDecision(inputMessage="Do you want cake? ", True)
if userWantsCake:
  print("Returned True")
else:
  print("Returned False")

Do you want cake? gibB432ish
Do you want cake? asdbajksdf
Do you want cake? yeah
Returned True

Do you want cake? gibB432ish
Do you want cake? asdbajksdf
Do you want cake? nah
Returned False

Example of using default:

userWantsCake = yn.returnDecision("Do you want cake? ", False, "ERROR")
if userWantsCake:
  print("Returned True")
elif not userWantsCake:
  print("Returned False")
elif userWantsCake=="ERROR":
  print("Something went wrong...")

Do you want cake? I dont know?
Something went wrong...

Please do note: if forceValidInput is set to True the program will continue until it can output a True or a False value, hence defaultValue will not be returned
