Install
Use PIP:

Usage example
import time

import pycfutils.io
import pycfutils.miscellaneous as misc
import pycfutils.network
import pycfutils.system
from pycfutils.exceptions import ModuleException, NetworkException

print("Press a key in less than one second...")
print(pycfutils.io.read_key(timeout=1))

print(misc.timestamp_string(human_readable=True))
print(tuple(misc.progression(ratio=2)))

@misc.timed_execution()
def func(arg0, kw0=1):
time.sleep(0.2)
return 5

func("123")

try:
print(pycfutils.network.connect_to_server("127.0.0.1", 22))
except NetworkException as e:
print(e)

pycfutils.system.cpu_stress(3)

# --- Requires PyGObject (also might take some time to complete) ---
try:
from pycfutils.gstreamer import RegistryAccess
except ModuleException as e:
print(e)
else:
ra = RegistryAccess()
print(ra.element_classes())

# --- Windows only ---
import pycfutils.gui

print(pycfutils.gui.message_box("Title", "Text to display", x=320, y=200))

Also, there are some useful (CLI wrapper) scripts in the tools folder. Check them:


Nix:
ls "pycfutils/tools"
for script in $(find "pycfutils/tools" -maxdepth 1 -type f); do python "${script}" -h; done



Win:
dir /b "pycfutils\tools"
for /f %g in ('dir /b /a-d /a-l "pycfutils\tools\*.py"') do (python "pycfutils\tools\%g" -h)



Or run them as modules (e.g. in 2 separate terminals). Example (Shell snippets that also work in Batch):


Terminal 1:
python -m pycfutils.tools.connect_to_server -a 127.0.0.1 -p 16180

# Go to the other terminal and run the other command (start the server), then come back and re-run the previous command

python -m pycfutils.tools.connect_to_server -a 127.0.0.1 -p 16180



Terminal 2:
python -m pycfutils.tools.start_server -a 127.0.0.1 -p 16180
