class TextFile:
|
|
|
|
"""Provides a file-like object that takes care of all the things you
|
|
commonly want to do when processing a text file that has some
|
|
line-by-line syntax: strip comments (as long as "#" is your comment
|
|
character), skip blank lines, join adjacent lines by escaping the
|
|
newline (ie. backslash at end of line), strip leading and/or
|
|
trailing whitespace, and collapse internal whitespace. All of these
|
|
are optional and independently controllable.
|
|
|
|
Provides a 'warn()' method so you can generate warning messages that
|
|
report physical line number, even if the logical line in question
|
|
spans multiple physical lines. Also provides 'unreadline()' for
|
|
implementing line-at-a-time lookahead.
|
|
|
|
Constructor is called as:
|
|
|
|
TextFile (filename=None, file=None, **options)
|
|
|
|
It bombs (RuntimeError) if both 'filename' and 'file' are None;
|
|
'filename' should be a string, and 'file' a file object (or
|
|
something that provides 'readline()' and 'close()' methods). It is
|
|
recommended that you supply at least 'filename', so that TextFile
|
|
can include it in warning messages. If 'file' is not supplied,
|
|
TextFile creates its own using the 'open()' builtin.
|
|
|
|
The options are all boolean, and affect the value returned by
|
|
'readline()':
|
|
strip_comments [default: true]
|
|
strip from "#" to end-of-line, as well as any whitespace
|
|
leading up to the "#" -- unless it is escaped by a backslash
|
|
lstrip_ws [default: false]
|
|
strip leading whitespace from each line before returning it
|
|
rstrip_ws [default: true]
|
|
strip trailing whitespace (including line terminator!) from
|
|
each line before returning it
|
|
skip_blanks [default: true}
|
|
skip lines that are empty *after* stripping comments and
|
|
whitespace. (If both lstrip_ws and rstrip_ws are true,
|
|
then some lines may consist of solely whitespace: these will
|
|
*not* be skipped, even if 'skip_blanks' is true.)
|
|
join_lines [default: false]
|
|
if a backslash is the last non-newline character on a line
|
|
after stripping comments and whitespace, join the following line
|
|
to it to form one "logical line"; if N consecutive lines end
|
|
with a backslash, then N+1 physical lines will be joined to
|
|
form one logical line.
|
|
collapse_ws [default: false]
|
|
after stripping comments and whitespace and joining physical
|
|
lines into logical lines, all internal whitespace (strings of
|
|
whitespace surrounded by non-whitespace characters, and not at
|
|
the beginning or end of the logical line) will be collapsed
|
|
to a single space.
|
|
|
|
Note that since 'rstrip_ws' can strip the trailing newline, the
|
|
semantics of 'readline()' must differ from those of the builtin file
|
|
object's 'readline()' method! In particular, 'readline()' returns
|
|
None for end-of-file: an empty string might just be a blank line (or
|
|
an all-whitespace line), if 'rstrip_ws' is true but 'skip_blanks' is
|
|
not."""
