New submission from Sergey B Kirpichev <skirpic...@gmail.com>: The Python stdlib allows override of sys.ps1/ps2 (to make IPython-like dynamic prompts and so on). I believe it would be a good idea to support this in doctest too, to cover cases when given application uses different from defaults settings for the interpreter.
Probably, we could add ps1/2 optional arguments for DoctestParser.__init__(). Some projects already patch doctest module for this, e.g. IPython: https://github.com/ipython/ipython/blob/master/IPython/testing/plugin/ipdoctest.py It shouldn't be too hard to port this feature. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 312053 nosy: Sergey.Kirpichev priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: doctest should support custom ps1/ps2 prompts _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32832> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
