I can then use i-intersect to filter it down to manageable levels? Cannot follow what you mean here. You can specify multiple generator and use the -intersect options which only yields the insection of all of them. > In T308028#7917957 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T308028#7917957>, @Xqt wrote: > >> In T308028#7917911 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T308028#7917911>, @ShakespeareFan00 wrote: >> >>> I strongly suggest some kind of option sorting is done BEFORE anything is generated. >> >> API:Usercontribs does not support any sorting. Seems the sorting order is the edit timestamp then. Sorting on client side is problematic because all entries have to be retrieved from API before the pages can be yielded. This can lead to exhausing memory usage and this is what generators are preventing usually. > > That's not what I meant. > > I meant option sorting in terms of re-ordering the command line options internally so they are processed in an order that makes sense for the options selected, so I don't have to recall a specfic ordering when writing a command line in PAWS for example. Ah, your suggestion //Sort the options into a logical order before further processing... I'm not sure if Python will let you do that..//. Yes, good idea, see above.
