Python | Writing production grade pandas with hamilton! | While Pandas is incredibly flexible and easy to get started with, it doesn't lend itself to writing good quality, extensible code. This is usually fine. Lots of it is thrown away -- written in notebooks and never seen again. However, a lot amount of it ends up making it into production ETLs, services, etc..
At Stitch Fix, we had a *lot* of monolithic, messy pandas scripts. We built [hamilton](https://github.com/stitchfix/hamilton/) to solve this problem. A programmer represents transforms on dataframes as a series of python functions. The parameter names are used to specify upstream dependencies, and the whole thing gets wired into a dependency graph.
In short -- instead of writing:
df['a'] = df['b'] + df['c']
You'd write:
def a(b: pd.Series, c: pd.Series) -> pd.Series:
return b+c
Then you use a *driver* to customize execution, pass in paraemeters, etc... Note that its not at all limited to pandas -- while that was the initial use-case, it can handle any sort of python datatype!
We've opened up this internal tool we're excited about to the outside world -- we'd love feedback, contribution, and use-cases!

Python | First time I used python | I'm coding with python for half a month now, in the beginning I was a bit sceptical what I would use it for but today I used it for the first time.
To cure boredom, me and my friends are doing typeraces where we have to type as fast as possible. I'm pretty good at that but there is someone in my class that is just a little better. Its just because I type upper cases with shiftlock and she types with shift.
So I wanted to learn to type with shift so I could type faster. But because I never did it that way I had to practice it so I wrote a little python program that generates a letter and then you have to type that letter.
I was very happy how it turned out and I now I understand python can and will be very useful . | 0.84 | t3_tfiry5 | 1,647,440,485 |
Python | OPToggles - a feature flag Open Source project | Hey r/Python! Just wanted to share our open source project launching today. Thought some of you might find it useful, and we would love to hear your feedback.

Python | How do you really share constants across your project in a Pythonic way? | Assuming i have a package i created who get input text, and return a huge dictionary with 50+ keys.
Since *all other packages* in the program are using this dictionary and play with those keys, I don't want to hard code the keys, but keep them as global **constants**.
So here are my options and i feel uncomfortable with both of them:
1. Put all constants vars in a separate folder/package in root folder, and *import them to each package* that use them. To my eyes it makes the code **hairy and uncapsulated.** I love the SW engineering where you have a package that depend on nothing outside.
2. Pass all arguments in this config package to *each* package who need it - which also make things ugly hairy and confusing, and require putting all constants in a class(there are no structures.)
&#x200B;
I know that most people go with **1**, but my code has like 10+ packages i wrote, each package has multiple files, ***each*** depend on these constants(50+), and if i import the constants (even with **absolute import**) to each, it makes me feel uncomfortable.
What if i want to give my package to another developer ? i need to gather all these dependencies?

Python | Stylistic choice of validation functions | Hey all! Got a question. I’m working on a validation script for work verifying some supplied input against required values. I’m wondering, stylistically, if there’s a “preferred way” to write these functions.
An example function…
Def name_max_length(name):
if 1 < len(name) <= 128:
return None
else:
raise ValidationError(“Names length fell outside of max range.”)
Apologies if Reddit mobile mangled that code but it’s short enough that I think everyone can still grok it.
If you were working on a project would you want to see the above? Or would you rather read a single if statement, without an else, checking to see if it fell outside of the valid range and if so raise the exception.
I thought PEP-8 had a stylistic recommendation about positive vs negative checking for if statements but I gave it a quick scan and didn’t see anything. I’m going to be writing a lot of these, so I’d like to get a solid stylistic choice under me.
I’m also curious, would you rather see these ranges hard coded in the if statement, or see two local variables (min/max) and have “if”compare against those? | 1 | t3_tfgida | 1,647,433,601 |

Python | My first ever Python Project!! I named it tagSearch | I saw a twitter post the other day "Is there a tool that I can get meta tags off of a web site? I couldn't find any".
I thought to myself, there probably is, but I should do one too for at least practice.
So I made this small script called tagsearch, basically it collects wanted tags off a site. It can also scrape certain tags that have a wanted attribute, like span tags but only if they have class attr.
I also added regex support meaning one can make regex search on the scraped tags. My GitHub repo:

Python | Django Email Signals - Django App that Actually Solves a Business Problem | In my workplace we make a lot of Django apps and for a number of these Django apps, we configure a lots of emails to be sent.
Whenever something changes in the database that meets some condition we send an email. The emails have their own context and each email can be a time consuming to setup.
There has to be a better way I thought. And so, I built [django-email-signals](https://github.com/Salaah01/django-email-signals).
I build this app to be as plug-and-play as possible with minimal configuration. This Django app allows you to setup email signals right from the admin page
Here is a breakdown of what the app currently lets you do:
* Configure emails to be sent when some data in some model is changed.
* Set some constraints to determine if indeed an email can be sent.
* Either write up your email content when setting up a new email signal, or provide a path to a template.
* Be able to reference objects and attributes such `instance.user.first_name` right from where you would set your constraints or the email HTML itself. | 1 | t3_teyws8 | 1,647,374,670 |
Python | Introducing Typesplainer: a python type-hint explainer | ## What
Typesplainer is a Python type hint explainer that explains python type hints in plain English. It is very fast, accurate, and easy to use and understand. Available as a CLI, on the web, and as a Visual Studio Code extension
## Where
Website: https://typesplainer.herokuapp.com/\
CLI: https://pypi.org/project/typesplainer/\
Visual Studio Code extension (Alpha): https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=WasiMaster.typesplainer
## Why
Wondering WTF is an `Callable[[List[int]], Dict[int, List[Union[str, None]]]]`? typesplainer has got you covered. It's a callable that accepts a list of integers and returns a dictionary that maps integers onto a list of optional strings. Understanding type hints can be hard and time-consuming, especially if they are very big like the example above. This tool helps you understand things like that more easily and faster.
## How
Just use the cli if you want to use it anytime and anywhere. Use the website to test the tool before installing or if you want a graphical interface. And since the vscode extension is still in development, I won't recommend that at the moment. | 0.84 | t3_tevyc4 | 1,647,368,487 |

Python | The Boilerplate for Logging in Python | ## Use this logging template in your next big project
Finding bugs is a common problem in any programming project. To make it easier to find bugs, you probably want to write some print statements to help you debug.
Is it helpful? yes. Is it the right way to track events in your code, especially in a big project? no.
Python has a built-in logging module that you can use to log messages. Logging not only helps you debug the issues in your code. It also helps you understand the flow of your code especially when you ship to production.
It is a very useful tool to identify how your code is behaving whether it is working as expected or not. If not, it can show you different hierarchies of how severe the issue is whether it is an error, a warning, or a debug mode.
Without having logging, it's difficult to keep your code maintainable for a long time. Especially when this code is mature.
In this tutorial, I'll show you a boilerplate for logging that you can use in your next project. Instead of looking at the documentation every time.
## Division Example
Let's take this division example especially when we divide by zero:
```python
def divide(dividend, divisor):
try:
return dividend / divisor
except ZeroDivisionError:
return "Zero Division error."
print(divide(6, 0))
```
In this case, when we divided 6 by 0 we returned a message string. This message shows that a zero division error during the `ZeroDivisionError` exception occurred.
What's the problem with that? The issue here is that we don't know when that happened and how severe the issue is. Is it a warning? an error? or just a piece of information you're printing to the console?
The built-in Python's `logging` module helps you better log your code with its features. Let's see how we can use it in this context:
```python
import logging
# Define a logger instance
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
# Define a stream handler for the console output
handler = logging.StreamHandler()
# Customize the formatter on the console
formatter = logging.Formatter(
"%(asctime)s - %(name)s: %(levelname)s - %(message)s",
datefmt="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
)
# Add the formatter to the handler
handler.setFormatter(formatter)
# Add the stream handler to the logger that we will use
logger.addHandler(handler)
# Set the level of logging to be INFO instead of the default WARNING
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
def divide(dividend, divisor):
try:
logger.info(f"Dividing {dividend} by {divisor}")
return dividend / divisor
except ZeroDivisionError:
logger.info("Zero Division error.")
print(divide(6, 0))
```
which would return helpful information like this:
```
2022-02-23 13:24:41 - __main__: INFO - Dividing 6 by 0
2022-02-23 13:24:41 - __main__: INFO - Zero Division error.
```
## Wrap Up
In this boilerplate, you've seen how to log messages to the console. You've formatted the logs to start with a date and time followed by the name of the module, level of logging, and the log message itself.
Check out the [logger module here](https://gist.github.com/EzzEddin/0e8c517a47e678da6a60cc21fdbc5788) and let me know if you have any feedback, thanks! | 1 | t3_terbh0 | 1,647,357,423 |
Python | Python vs SQL for Data Analysis: comparing performance, functionality and dev XP | The clean division of data analysis labor between Python and SQL seems to be fading with tools like dbt, Snowpark and dask-sql. The article shared below compares the two languages in terms of performance, functionality and developer XP.
Quick summary:
**Performance**
Running SQL code on data warehouses is generally faster than Python for querying data and doing basic aggregations. This is because SQL queries move code to data instead of data to code. That said, parallel computing solutions like Dask and others that scale Python code to larger-than-memory datasets can significantly lower processing times compared to traditional libraries like pandas.
**Functionality**
SQL’s greatest strength is also its weakness: simplicity. For example, writing SQL code to perform iterative exploratory data analysis, data science or machine learning tasks can quickly get lengthy and hard to read. Python lets you write free-form experimental data analysis code and complex mathematical and/or ML code. The absence of a vibrant and reliable third-party library community for SQL is also a problem compared to Python.
**Developer XP**
Python makes debugging and unit-testing a lot easier and more reliable. While dbt has added code versioning by forcing the use of Git, SQL diffs are still harder to read and manipulate than diffs in Python IMO.
**Conclusion**
While it's tempting to frame the debate between SQL and Python as a stand-off, the two languages in fact excel at different parts of the data-processing pipeline. One potential rule of thumb to take from this is to **use SQL for simple queries that need to run fast** on a data warehouse, **dbt for organizing more complex SQL models**, and **Python with distributed computing libraries like Dask for free-form exploratory analysis and machine learning code** and/or code that needs to be reliably unit tested.
