This example demonstrates several uses of the :func:`pprint` function and its parameters.
|
||||
To demonstrate several uses of the :func:`pprint` function and its parameters,
|
||||
let's fetch information about a package from PyPI::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> import json
|
||||
>>> import pprint
|
||||
>>> tup = ('spam', ('eggs', ('lumberjack', ('knights', ('ni', ('dead',
|
||||
... ('parrot', ('fresh fruit',))))))))
|
||||
>>> stuff = ['a' * 10, tup, ['a' * 30, 'b' * 30], ['c' * 20, 'd' * 20]]
|
||||
>>> pprint.pprint(stuff)
|
||||
['aaaaaaaaaa',
|
||||
('spam',
|
||||
('eggs',
|
||||
('lumberjack',
|
||||
('knights', ('ni', ('dead', ('parrot', ('fresh fruit',)))))))),
|
||||
['aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa', 'bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb'],
|
||||
['cccccccccccccccccccc', 'dddddddddddddddddddd']]
|
||||
>>> pprint.pprint(stuff, depth=3)
|
||||
['aaaaaaaaaa',
|
||||
('spam', ('eggs', (...))),
|
||||
['aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa', 'bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb'],
|
||||
['cccccccccccccccccccc', 'dddddddddddddddddddd']]
|
||||
>>> pprint.pprint(stuff, width=60)
|
||||
['aaaaaaaaaa',
|
||||
('spam',
|
||||
('eggs',
|
||||
('lumberjack',
|
||||
('knights',
|
||||
('ni', ('dead', ('parrot', ('fresh fruit',)))))))),
|
||||
['aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa',
|
||||
'bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb'],
|
||||
['cccccccccccccccccccc', 'dddddddddddddddddddd']]
|
||||
>>> from urllib.request import urlopen
|
||||
>>> with urlopen('http://pypi.python.org/pypi/configparser/json') as url:
|
||||
... http_info = url.info()
|
||||
... raw_data = url.read().decode(http_info.get_content_charset())
|
||||
>>> package_data = json.loads(raw_data)
|
||||
>>> result = {'headers': http_info.items(), 'body': package_data}
|
||||
|
||||
In its basic form, :func:`pprint` shows the whole object::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> pprint.pprint(result)
|
||||
{'body': {'info': {'_pypi_hidden': False,
|

The result can be limited to a certain *depth* (ellipsis is used for deeper
|

contents)::
|

|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, maximum *width* can be suggested. If a long object cannot be
|
||||
split, the specified width will be exceeded::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> pprint.pprint(result['headers'], width=30)
|
||||
[('Date',
|

'Sat, 14 May 2011 12:48:52 GMT'),

('Content-Type',
