"""text_file | |
provides the TextFile class, which gives an interface to text files | |
that (optionally) takes care of stripping comments, ignoring blank | |
lines, and joining lines with backslashes.""" | |
import sys, io | |
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. 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 'io.open()'. | |
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 false, | |
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_join [default: false] | |
strip leading whitespace from lines that are joined to their | |
predecessor; only matters if (join_lines and not lstrip_ws) | |
errors [default: 'strict'] | |
error handler used to decode the file content | |
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.""" | |
