This module helps you to read tabular data from string or file like objects.
You can parse a string with loads method.
import tabularize
print tabularize.loads("""
------------------
| name | surname |
------------------
| edi | budu |
| budu | edi |
------------------
""")
# prints [{ "name": "edi", "surname": "budu"},
{ "name": "budu", "surname": "edi"}]
Also you can specify the return type of result:
print tabularize.loads("""
------------------
| name | surname |
------------------
| edi | budu |
| budu | edi |
------------------
""", return_type=list)
# prints [["edi", "budu"], ["budu", "edi"]]
And also you can parse the doctstring of any object with from_docstring
class MyClass(object):
"""
Here is my test case
_____________________________
| name | surname | full_name |
| edi | budu | edi budu |
| budu | edi | budu edi |
______________________________
"""
tabular = tabularize.from_docstring(MyClass, return_type=tuple)
for name, surname, full_name in tabular:
assert "%s %s" % (name, surname) == full_name
