Pyflyby is a set of Python programming productivity tools. For command-line interaction: * py: command-line multitool For IPython interaction: * autoimporter: automatically imports symbols when needed. For editing python source code: * tidy-imports: adds missing 'import's, removes unused 'import's, and also reformats 'import' blocks. * find-imports: prints to stdout how to import a particular symbol. * reformat-imports: reformats 'import' blocks * collect-imports: prints out all the imports in a given set of files. * collect-exports: prints out definitions in a given set of modules, in the form of import statements. * transform-imports: renames imported modules/functions. Quick start: Autoimporter + IPython =================================== $ py In [1]: re.search("[a-z]+", "....hello...").group(0) [PYFLYBY] import re Out[1]: 'hello' In [2]: chisqprob(arange(5), 2) [PYFLYBY] from numpy import arange [PYFLYBY] from scipy.stats import chisqprob Out[2]: [ 1. 0.6065 0.3679 0.2231 0.1353] To load pyflyby into an existing IPython session as a 1-off: $ ipython In [1]: %load_ext pyflyby To configure IPython/Jupyter Notebook to load pyflyby automatically: $ py pyflyby.install_in_ipython_config_file or $ echo 'c.InteractiveShellApp.extensions.append("pyflyby")' \ >> ~/.ipython/profile_default/ipython_config.py $ ipython In [1]: b64decode('aGVsbG8=') [PYFLYBY] from base64 import b64decode Out[1]: 'hello' Quick start: command-line multi-tool ==================================== $ py b64decode aGVsbG8= [PYFLYBY] from base64 import b64decode [PYFLYBY] b64decode('aGVsbG8=', altchars=None) 'hello' $ py log2 sys.maxint [PYFLYBY] from numpy import log2 [PYFLYBY] import sys [PYFLYBY] log2(9223372036854775807) 63.0 $ py 'plot(cos(arange(30)))' [PYFLYBY] from numpy import arange [PYFLYBY] from numpy import cos [PYFLYBY] from matplotlib.pyplot import plot [PYFLYBY] plot(cos(arange(30))) <plot> $ py 38497631 / 13951446 2.7594007818257693 $ py foo.py Quick start: tidy-imports ========================= To use tidy-imports, just specify the filename(s) to tidy. For example: $ echo 're.search("[a-z]+", "....hello..."), chisqprob(arange(5), 2)' > foo.py $ tidy-imports foo.py --- /tmp/foo.py +++ /tmp/foo.py @@ -1 +1,9 @@ +from __future__ import absolute_import, division, with_statement + +from numpy import arange +from scipy.stats import chisqprob +import re + re.search("[a-z]+", "....hello..."), chisqprob(arange(5), 2) Replace /tmp/foo.py? [y/N] Quick start: import libraries ============================= Create a file named .pyflyby with lines such as:: from mypackage.mymodule import MyClass, my_function import anotherpackage.anothermodule You can put this file in your home directory or in the same directory as your *.py files. Details: automatic imports ========================== AUTOMATIC IMPORTS - never type "import" again! This module allows your "known imports" to work automatically in your IPython interactive session without having to type the 'import' statements (and also without having to slow down your Python startup with imports you only use occasionally). Example: In [1]: re.search("[a-z]+", "....hello...").group(0) [PYFLYBY] import re Out[1]: 'hello' In [2]: chisqprob(arange(5), 2) [PYFLYBY] from numpy import arange [PYFLYBY] from scipy.stats import chisqprob Out[2]: [ 1. 0.6065 0.3679 0.2231 0.1353] In [3]: np.sin(arandom(5)) [PYFLYBY] from numpy.random import random as arandom [PYFLYBY] import numpy as np Out[3]: [ 0.0282 0.0603 0.4653 0.8371 0.3347] In [4]: isinstance(42, Number) [PYFLYBY] from numbers import Number Out[4]: True It just works ------------- Tab completion works, even on modules that are not yet imported. In the following example, notice that numpy is imported when we need to know its members, and only then: $ ipython In [1]: nump<TAB> In [1]: numpy In [1]: numpy.arang<TAB> [PYFLYBY] import numpy In [1]: numpy.arange The IPython "?" magic help (pinfo/pinfo2) automatically imports symbols first if necessary: $ ipython In [1]: arange? [PYFLYBY] from numpy import arange ... Docstring: arange([start,] stop[, step,], dtype=None) ... Other IPython magic commands work as well: $ ipython In [1]: %timeit np.cos(pi) [PYFLYBY] import numpy as np [PYFLYBY] from numpy import pi 100000 loops, best of 3: 2.51 us per loop $ echo 'print arange(4)' > foo.py $ ipython In [1]: %run foo.py [PYFLYBY] from numpy import arange [0 1 2 3] Implementation details ---------------------- The automatic importing happens at parse time, before code is executed. The namespace never contains entries for names that are not yet imported. This method of importing at parse time contrasts with previous implementations of automatic importing that use proxy objects. Those implementations using proxy objects don't work as well, because it is impossible to make proxy objects behave perfectly. For example, instance(x, T) will return the wrong answer if either x or T is a proxy object. Compatibility ------------- Tested with: - Python 2.6, 2.7 - IPython 0.10, 0.11, 0.12, 0.13, 1.0, 1.2, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 4.0. - IPython (text console), IPython Notebook, Spyder Details: import libraries ========================= Pyflyby uses "import libraries" that tell how to import a given symbol. An import library file is simply a python source file containing 'import' (or 'from ... import ...') lines. These can be generated automatically with collect-imports and collect-exports. Known imports ------------- Find-imports, tidy-imports, and autoimport consult the database of known imports to figure out where to get an import. For example, if the imports database contains:: from numpy import arange, NaN then when you type the following in IPython:: print arange(10) the autoimporter would automatically execute "from numpy import arange". The database can be one file or multiple files. This makes it easy to have project-specific known_imports along with global and per-user defaults. The PYFLYBY_PATH environment variable specifies which files to read. This is a colon-separated list of filenames or directory names. The default is: PYFLYBY_PATH=/etc/pyflyby:~/.pyflyby:.../.pyflyby If you set PYFLYBY_PATH=/foo1/bar1:/foo2/bar2 then this replaces the default. You can use a hyphen to include the default in the path. If you set PYFLYBY_PATH=/foo1/bar1:-:/foo2/bar2 then this reads /foo1/bar1, then the default locations, then /foo2/bar2. In $PYFLYBY_PATH, ".../.pyflyby" (with _three_ dots) means that all ancestor directories are searched for a member named ".pyflyby". For example, suppose the following files exist: /etc/pyflyby/stuff.py /u/quarl/.pyflyby/blah1.py /u/quarl/.pyflyby/more/blah2.py /proj/share/mypythonstuff/.pyflyby /proj/share/mypythonstuff/foo/bar/.pyflyby/baz.py /.pyflyby Further, suppose: * /proj is on a separate file system from /. * $HOME=/u/quarl Then "tidy-imports /proj/share/mypythonstuff/foo/bar/quux/zot.py" will by default use the following: /etc/pyflyby/stuff.py /u/quarl/.pyflyby/blah1.py /u/quarl/.pyflyby/more/blah2.py /proj/share/mypythonstuff/foo/bar/.pyflyby/baz.py /proj/share/mypythonstuff/.pyflyby (a file) Notes: * /.pyflyby is not included, because traversal stops at file system boundaries, and in this example, /proj is on a different file system than /. * .pyflyby (in $HOME or near the target file) can be a file or a directory. If it is a directory, then it is recursively searched for *.py files. * The order usually doesn't matter, but if there are "forget" instructions (see below), then the order matters. In the default $PYFLYBY_PATH, .../.pyflyby is placed last so that per-directory configuration can override per-user configuration, which can override systemwide configuration. Forgetting imports ------------------ Occasionally you may have reason to tell pyflyby to "forget" entries from the database of known imports. You can put the following in any file reachable from $PYFLYBY_PATH: __forget_imports__ = ["from numpy import NaN"] This is useful if you want to use a set of imports maintained by someone else except for a few particular imports. Entries in $PYFLYBY_PATH are processed left-to-right in the order specified, so put the files containing these at the end of your $PYFLYBY_PATH. By default, tidy-imports and friends process /etc/pyflyby, then ~/.pyflyby, then the per-directory .pyflyby. Mandatory imports ----------------- Within a certain project you may have a policy to always include certain imports. For example, maybe you always want to do "from __future__ import division" in all files. You can put the following in any file reachable from $PYFLYBY_PATH: __mandatory_imports__ = ["from __future__ import division"] To undo mandatory imports inherited from other .pyflyby files, use __forget_imports__. Canonicalize imports -------------------- Sometimes you want every run of tidy-imports to automatically rename an import to a new name. You can put the following in any file reachable from $PYFLYBY_PATH: __canonical_imports__ = {"oldmodule.oldfunction": "newmodule.newfunction"} This is equivalent to running: tidy-imports --transform=oldmodule.oldfunction=newmodule.newfunction Soapbox: avoid "star" imports ============================= When programming in Python, a good software engineering practice is to avoid using "from foopackage import *" in production code. This style is a maintenance nightmare: * It becomes difficult to figure out where various symbols (functions/classes/etc) come from. * It's hard to tell what gets shadowed by what. * When the package changes in trivial ways, your code will be affected. Consider the following example: Suppose foopackage.py contains "import sys", and myprogram.py contains "from foopackage import *; if some_condition: sys.exit(0)". If foopackage.py changes so that "import sys" is removed, myprogram.py is now broken because it's missing "import sys". To fix such code, you can run `tidy-imports --replace-star-imports' to automatically replace star imports with the specific needed imports. Emacs support ============= * To get a `M-x tidy-imports' command in GNU Emacs, add to your ~/.emacs: (load "/path/to/pyflyby/lib/emacs/pyflyby.el") - Pyflyby.el doesn't yet work with XEmacs; patches welcome.
