Hi all, I'd like to be able to do the following to a python source file programmatically: * Read in a source file * Add/Remove/Edit Classes, methods, functions * Add/Remove/Edit Decorators * List the Classes * List the imported modules * List the functions * List methods of classes
And then save out the result back to the original file (or elsewhere). I've begun by using the tokenize module to generate a token-tuple list and am building datastructures around it that enable the above methods. I'm find that I'm getting a little caught up in the details and thought I'd step back and ask if there's a more elegant way to approach this, or if anyone knows a library that could assist. So far, I've got code that generates a line number to token-tuple list dictionary, and am working on a datastructure describing where the classes begin and end, indexed by their name, such that they can be later modified. Any thoughts? Thanks, Paul -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
