asq is simple implementation of a LINQ-inspired API for Python which
operates over Python iterables, including a parallel version implemented in
terms of the Python standard library multiprocessing module.
What It Does
asq is a package implementing queries over iterables of Python
objects. asq provides a fluent interface making extensive use of method
chaining to create complex queries without compromising readability. For
example, to take the first five uppercased results from a list of words sorted
by length and then alphabetically, try:
>>> from asq import query >>> words = ["zero", "one", "two", "three", "four", "five", "six", "seven", "eight", "nine", "ten"] >>> query(words).order_by(len).then_by().take(5).select(str.upper).to_list() ['ONE', 'SIX', 'TEN', 'TWO', 'FIVE']
Over 40 standard query operators are provided together with various utilities to make the API even more convenient to use in Python.
