ptpython-aioipfs 3.0.27

Description:

ptpythonaioipfs 3.0.27

A better Python REPL
pip install ptpython

Ptpython is an advanced Python REPL. It should work on all
Python versions from 2.6 up to 3.9 and work cross platform (Linux,
BSD, OS X and Windows).
Note: this version of ptpython requires at least Python 3.6. Install ptpython
2.0.5 for older Python versions.

Installation
Install it using pip:
pip install ptpython
Start it by typing ptpython.


Features

Syntax highlighting.
Multiline editing (the up arrow works).
Autocompletion.
Mouse support. [1]
Support for color schemes.
Support for bracketed paste [2].
Both Vi and Emacs key bindings.
Support for double width (Chinese) characters.
… and many other things.

[1] Disabled by default. (Enable in the menu.)
[2] If the terminal supports it (most terminals do), this allows pasting
without going into paste mode. It will keep the indentation.


Command Line Options
The help menu shows basic command-line options.
$ ptpython --help
usage: ptpython [-h] [--vi] [-i] [--light-bg] [--dark-bg] [--config-file CONFIG_FILE]
[--history-file HISTORY_FILE] [-V]
[args ...]

ptpython: Interactive Python shell.

positional arguments:
args Script and arguments

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--vi Enable Vi key bindings
-i, --interactive Start interactive shell after executing this file.
--asyncio Run an asyncio event loop to support top-level "await".
--light-bg Run on a light background (use dark colors for text).
--dark-bg Run on a dark background (use light colors for text).
--config-file CONFIG_FILE
Location of configuration file.
--history-file HISTORY_FILE
Location of history file.
-V, --version show program's version number and exit

environment variables:
PTPYTHON_CONFIG_HOME: a configuration directory to use
PYTHONSTARTUP: file executed on interactive startup (no default)


__pt_repr__: A nicer repr with colors
When classes implement a __pt_repr__ method, this will be used instead of
__repr__ for printing. Any prompt_toolkit “formatted text”
can be returned from here. In order to avoid writing a __repr__ as well,
the ptpython.utils.ptrepr_to_repr decorator can be applied. For instance:
from ptpython.utils import ptrepr_to_repr
from prompt_toolkit.formatted_text import HTML

@ptrepr_to_repr
class MyClass:
def __pt_repr__(self):
return HTML('<yellow>Hello world!</yellow>')

Embedding the REPL
Embedding the REPL in any Python application is easy:
from ptpython.repl import embed
embed(globals(), locals())
You can make ptpython your default Python REPL by creating a PYTHONSTARTUP file containing code
like this:
import sys
try:
from ptpython.repl import embed
except ImportError:
print("ptpython is not available: falling back to standard prompt")
else:
sys.exit(embed(globals(), locals()))
Note config file support currently only works when invoking ptpython directly.
That it, the config file will be ignored when embedding ptpython in an application.


Multiline editing
Multi-line editing mode will automatically turn on when you press enter after a
colon.
To execute the input in multi-line mode, you can either press Alt+Enter, or
Esc followed by Enter. (If you want the first to work in the OS X
terminal, you have to check the “Use option as meta key” checkbox in your
terminal settings. For iTerm2, you have to check “Left option acts as +Esc” in
the options.)



Syntax validation
Before execution, ptpython will see whether the input is syntactically
correct Python code. If not, it will show a warning, and move the cursor to the
error.



Asyncio REPL and top level await
In order to get top-level await support, start ptpython as follows:
ptpython --asyncio
This will spawn an asyncio event loop and embed the async REPL in the event
loop. After this, top-level await will work and statements like await asyncio.sleep(10) will execute.


Additional features
Running system commands: Press Meta-! in Emacs mode or just ! in Vi
navigation mode to see the “Shell command” prompt. There you can enter system
commands without leaving the REPL.
Selecting text: Press Control+Space in Emacs mode or V (major V) in Vi
navigation mode.


Configuration
It is possible to create a config.py file to customize configuration.
ptpython will look in an appropriate platform-specific directory via appdirs
<https://pypi.org/project/appdirs/>. See the appdirs documentation for the
precise location for your platform. A PTPYTHON_CONFIG_HOME environment
variable, if set, can also be used to explicitly override where configuration
is looked for.
Have a look at this example to see what is possible:
config.py
Note config file support currently only works when invoking ptpython directly.
That it, the config file will be ignored when embedding ptpython in an application.


IPython support
Run ptipython (prompt_toolkit - IPython), to get a nice interactive shell
with all the power that IPython has to offer, like magic functions and shell
integration. Make sure that IPython has been installed. (pip install ipython)

This is also available for embedding:
from ptpython.ipython import embed
embed(globals(), locals())


Django support
django-extensions
has a shell_plus management command. When ptpython has been installed,
it will by default use ptpython or ptipython.


PDB
There is an experimental PDB replacement: ptpdb.


Windows support
prompt_toolkit and ptpython works better on Linux and OS X than on
Windows. Some things might not work, but it is usable:



FAQ
Q: The Ctrl-S forward search doesn’t work and freezes my terminal.
A: Try to run stty -ixon in your terminal to disable flow control.
Q: The Meta-key doesn’t work.
A: For some terminals you have to enable the Alt-key to act as meta key, but you
can also type Escape before any key instead.


Alternatives

BPython
IPython

If you find another alternative, you can create an issue and we’ll list it
here. If you find a nice feature somewhere that is missing in ptpython,
also create a GitHub issue and maybe we’ll implement it.
