The exception is raised if the command returns a non-zero error code. If it returns a zero error code then the return value of, say, compose.up() contains the command's stdout. In addition stdout can be redirected to a file, o

No it does not, in fact; errors or warnings will pop up as an unhandled exception and print: - command actually executed, - snippet of stdout - and snippet of stderr. They can be handled using standard exception techniques.

To change the wording in the title of this post would be improper in view of multitude of comments referring to this title. I will consider rebranding this.

I feel the majority still uses qwerty keyboards; I assumed that when choosing the name and the shortcut for the tool. Experiences differ, and de gustibus on est disputandum; in my bubble, virtualenv is a must-have for Python development. I

I see. The P key isn't that ergonomically placed though; and again, one will have to do this time and again for each virtual environment, right? Why not use native Python methods, namely endpoints, instead, and automate this away?

Regarding sync checks which Make has as a built-in feature, I am not yet positive how to best implement it. Maybe something like @pre(file_name=_file_is_in_sync) def build(file_name: Path): ... I believe such libraries

> argh & a symlink in /usr/bin. - Is putting a symlink to one of your project directories, probably residing in $HOME, to /usr/bin/ a good practice? - As an alternative one can put a symlink into ~/bin;

There are a lot of projects, both commercial and OSS, which have a Makefile for linting, version releases, etc, — and never use its dependency graph feature; or, their usage is so superficial that implementing it, say, - via direct function

That's right; Google also published a similar package named `fire`, I used it a lot. > just `python your_file.py` That's actually one of the points. j lint is shorter than python scripts.py lint and the letter

An example from the top of my head: compose = sh.docker.compose.bake('-f', 'deploy/dev.yml') … compose.down() … compose.up('--force-recreate', '-d') I feel this is a majo

Saying 'GNU Make' particularly was an automatism. When I use Make I do use GNU Make specifically. I do not have experience with BSD Make, or other Make dialects. > did actually do a suitable job of replacing gnu make The title

For a Python project, I'd recommend doing this as a dev dependency. * jeeves is the name of the project which I'm advertising, which converts a Python file to a set of commands; * `j` is the name of executable which aformentioned

You are right, jeeves doesn't do that. Your example reminds me of how I first learnt to use Make; I built my LaTeX stuff from source when in university. However, dealing with Python mostly in my time in the industry, I scarcely ever ha

You can also install a jeeves plugin with pip. Say, pip install jeeves-yeti-pyproject will provide you with jeeves, a bunch of commands, and a pack of dev dependencies which I personally happen to like and to use in my projects. I

I looked at pyinvoke before I started jeeves. Roughly, as much as I can recall, there were a few reservations: - no type hints for docs & validation, I wanted them - Makefile in its basic form is very concise and doesn't require a

Please elaborate. Do you mean submitting commands via ssh to remote servers from the script? The way I'd recommend to run shell commands from jeeves is `sh` library. It has features for ssh support: https://sh.readthedocs.io

I like sh for brevity of its API. I often have to use `_tty_out=False`, but this is easy to fix once and for all commands in a script: my_sh = sh.bake(_tty_out=False) my_sh.do_whatever() The way how sh captures output can appar

Thanks, will check this out!

Thanks for the point. I've had to deal with argparse-based code (not finding it very enjoyable) but didn't recognize the resemblance.

by yeti-sh 3y ago
That's right. For projects which only use subset of Make features described by (1) jeeves can be considered an alternative for Make, and I would believe there are quite a few such projects.

by yeti-sh 3y ago
With interpretable languages, this feature of Make is IMHO rarely called for. Task running is; Makefile still is a standard way to do project maintenance, both locally and CI. jeeves is an attempt to extract that feature of Make, and provid

I wouldn't necessarily agree. I've seen may instances of Make particularly being used to run tedious commands — linting, testing, deployment, et cetera; for these things, jeeves can be a perfect replacement. A and B are usually ca

by yeti-sh 3y ago
Indeed, they are out of scope. But I still would argue this does have something in common with Make — just as Make, jeeves can be used as a command runner, in which role Make is oftentimes used as well. Instead of `make` as entry point for

I've never used waf, but from its documentation it would seem that waf is a build system, implementing a concept of a DAG governing build of a project. That implies that waf is rather complicated. jeeves, on the other hand, does no suc

Thanks for the hint, I didn't know about this project; will check it out.

Thanks! Perhaps this particular robot is running a much more civilized version of Skynet/Cyberdyne firmware. And is sure to be speaking impeccable English.
