"""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.""" |

|
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.""" |
