Zut

General-purpose utility Python library to minimize boilerplate code by reusing common code and patterns.

Install

Zut is published on PyPI.

Install with pip:

pip install zut

Zut is designed to work with the Python standard library (version >= 3.7) as its sole mandatory dependency.

Optional dependencies may be installed using an extra specifier:

• pip install zut[excel] : write and read Excel files with module zut.excel (installs openpyxl defusedxml).
• pip install zut[tab] : display tabular data elegantly (installs tabulate). If this dependency is not included, the library provides a polyfill for the tabulate function to handle simple cases.
• pip install zut[time] : parse timezones from string, get local timezone name or convert between naive and aware datetimes in various timezones (installs tzdata and tzlocal on Windows; does not install anything on Linux if Python >= 3.9 because this feature is natively available).
• pip install zut[perf] : track elapsed time and memory consumption with module zut.perf (installs psutil).
• pip install zut[sql] : advanced SQL parsing in module zut.sql (installs sqlparse).

Database adapters:

• pip install zut[maria]: access MariaDB databases (installs mysqlclient and sqlparse).
• pip install zut[mysql]: access MySQL databases (installs mysqlclient and sqlparse).
• pip install zut[pg]: access PostgreSQL databases (installs psycopg and sqlparse).
• pip install zut[sqlserver]: access Microsoft SQL Server databases (installs pyodbc, sqlparams and sqlparse).
• pip install zut[sqlite]: access SQLite databases (installs sqlparse).

Use pip install zut[all] to install all extras.
