yakutils
Yakutils is yet another toolbox of Python helper functions.
This package is available on PyPi, but its primary purpose is to allow one (me) to copy these into projects or to prevent one (me as well) from needing to Google how to write them (I'm looking at you csv.DictReader and csv.DictWriter).
This project is a continuous work-in-progress, and while its contents are specific to stuff that I use, pull requests are certainly welcome.
Installation
To download using pip via PyPi:
$ pip install yakutilsUsage Examples:
>>> from yakutils import read_csv

[
{
'name': 'Tomatillo',
'age': 27
},
# ...
]
>>> import datetime as dt
>>> from yakutils import date_to_iso8601
>>> date_to_iso8601(dt.date.today())
'2020-01-26T00:00:00Z'
>>> from yakutils import datetime_to_iso8601
>>> datetime_to_iso8601(dt.datetime.utcnow())
'2020-01-26T19:04:40.219668Z'
>>> from yakutils import datetime_to_unixtimestamp
>>> datetime_to_unixtimestamp(dt.datetime.utcnow())
1580065524
>>> from yakutils import iso8601_to_datetime
>>> iso8601_to_datetime('2020-01-26T19:04:40.219668Z')
datetime.datetime(2020, 1, 26, 19, 4, 40, 219668)
>>> import json
>>> from decimal import Decimal
>>> from yakutils import json_defaults
>>> json.dumps({
... 'now': dt.datetime.utcnow(),
... 'today': dt.date.today(),
... 'time': dt.time(1,2,3),
... 'num': Decimal(2.777),
...}, default=json_defaults)
'{"now": "2020-01-28T01:10:37.599281Z", "today": "2020-01-27", "time": "01:02:03", "num": 2.777}'
