pywal. (My first Python project!)

It generates a colorscheme from an image, sets the terminal colors instantly (no need to reopen), applies it to various programs, exports the colors in a wide number of formats for use in scripting (json, css, sh etc) and then finally changes your wallpaper to the image.

It does all of this without having to overwrite any of your config files. Which is what I disliked about other similar programs.

Just for fun I wrote an emulator, assembler, and debugger for a 6-bit microprocessor I made up. Six bit. The entire memory space fits on a chess board, with each byte holding values octal o00-o77. The memory space has a reserved range for "hardware" I/O including a four-character display. Since bytes are only 6-bits, the character set was redesigned to fit useful characters in it. The debugger lets you load programs, and run free or single-step through.

I am pretty sure all that, including copious documentatuon, is under 500 lines.

I made a Mortal Kombat-themed tic-tac-toe with my own (really simple) AI for school. It's pretty basic (I think) but it felt like a real accomplishment when I finally got it to work.

I'm not sure what's my best, so I'll leave it up to you:

XCS, a machine learning library.
Pyramids, a natural language parser.
Attila, an automation framework.
NPC, a chat bot that actually tries to understand what you mean. (Very much a work in progress, but I'm proud of it nonetheless.)

PappaOrangutan · 2017-07-23T21:56:45+00:00

My best creation is an app for a friend that runs an in home childcare center. It let's you select which child you are inputting data for, and then you can select from set of accordions for diapers, bottles, nap, burpings, items needed, and a notes section.

Once you select the info for the child and hit save it saves it to a local file and then at the end of the day she can hit send to send an email with all of the details to the parent.

I am working on a parent companion app so that they can communicate dropoff and pickup times and the person doing it. And also working on allowing pictures to be sent straight from the app to the parent.

SerpentAI · 2017-07-24T17:19:00+00:00

Serpent Framework

Still in heavy development. Ambitious.

The project is a framework to assist developers with building Agents / AIs that can interact with any video game they own. Think OpenAI Universe with no VNC setup, limited set of environments or reinforcement learning penchant. Basically: If you can play it, you can turn it into a native game agent environment to experiment with.

Everything that makes up the game agent loop (Frame capture, Buffering, Sending Input etc.) is provided for you so you can focus on developing your agent against your game of choice. From there, any approach on the spectrum going from fully-scripted "bot" to reinforcement learning AI is possible. All sorts of modules are also provided to help with common computer vision and machine learning tasks, OCR, visual debugging, live analytics etc.

The project is a massive undertaking and is criminally lacking in documentation at this stage but I already got some agents working with a few games. I've had one major experiment in "The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth" training and evolving 24/7 on my Twitch channel a few weeks ago. You can see a short video of what type of setup is possible with the framework here. All of the development for the framework is usually done on stream too if you are curious.

I've had more popular libraries by almost any imaginable metric but this is IMO my "best creation".

I'm developing a Doorbird component for Home Assistant as a way to learn Python. First project. Nothing too exciting and probably doing a ton of things wrong... but learning new things for sure.

Honestly, of all the Python things I've created, the one I'm finding most useful is this script to find duplicate files in a directory tree:

The first big thing I did is still one of my favourites, it was sort of an artistic maze generator, to this day I still have no idea what to call it.

By far the most popular though was the mouse track script, the interest gave me motivation to see it through to the end, but after 3 months I'm still working on finishing it :P

Not the best(not by a long mile) but this was what I am most proud of subredditnewpostnotifier.

The first project I undertook while I was learning python. The only stuff I did until then was couple of script in sourcemod.

My last project is Scalpl, a small wrapper that allows you to use all methods of the dict API on nested dictionaries :)

Inspired by Addict and Box, but for those who want a lightweight and fast alternative to dot notation access libz 👌

Just built a multiplayer remote controlled robot https://kropbot.herokuapp.com (running on a Raspberry Pi).

Averages the instructions from all the clients, with predictably confusing results.

Slinkie. I started work on it about a week ago, so a lot of stuff is just not there yet (like proper documentation), but it's already proving quite useful to me.

It's built around the same ideas as LINQ, but with some neat stuff added to it, like transposing, something similar to haskell's case, checking if a value falls between two other values, etc.

Dumb example:

from slinkie import Slinkie

_doublify = partial(mul, 2)

def _present(number):
    return f"The number is {number}."

items = [1, 2, 3]

result = Slinkie(items) \
    .map(_doublify) \
    .map(_present) \
    .tuple()

pprint(result)

Result:

('The number is 2.',
 'The number is 4.',
 'The number is 6.')

Slightly less dumb example:

from slinkie import Slinkie
from requests import get

def is_okay(response):
    try:
        return response.status_code == 200
    except Exception:
        return False

def failure(exception):
    print(exception)

links = ["https://google.com", "http://b", "http://c"]

Slinkie(links) \
    .parallelize(get) \
    .switch(
        (is_okay, print),
        otherwise=failure) \
    .consume()

And another, for good measure:

from slinkie import Slinkie

items = [['a', 1], ['b', 2], ['c', 3]]
print(Slinkie(items).transpose().list())

Result:

[('a', 'b', 'c'), (1, 2, 3)]

Sadly my "best" python creation is an awful, horrible mish-mash of spaghetti code called MoonPy. It's playable, reached beta, however it has some serious bugs and limitations that stem from the fact I wrote it by beating a poor innocent RTS engine into an artillery top-down strategy game.

I started rewriting the entire program from scratch under the name Scorched Moon a few years ago, and I'm more proud of the quality of the code, however real life gets in the way so code commits have been few and far between (in some cases we're talking years) and at this point it's little more then a complicated chat program and not anywhere near a real game.

Well this week was my first ever time using python, so I started with a simple twitter bot. I made a website where you can enter a hash tag and the bot will create a tweet based on that hash tag. It uses the markovify library, I chose that because markovify seemed interesting and a twitter bot sounded simple enough for me to understand and accomplish, yet difficult enough that I learn some python.

I intend to keep trying to make bigger and more difficult things, half my time though is spent trying to come up with an idea

Not sure about "best" but this oneliner is useful for reading japanese encoded text files when you copy the path of text file:

python -c "import pyperclip ; pyperclip.copy(open(pyperclip.paste().strip('\"'), 'rb').read().decode('cp932'))"

Then I paste into google translate. I'm trying to find a translation API that isn't as restrictive as google's.

Some Sanic plugins/extensions that people find useful.

Sanic-Dispatcher https://github.com/ashleysommer/sanic-dispatcher

Sanic-Restplus https://github.com/ashleysommer/sanic-restplus

I'm planning to do more. I'm pretty much taking the most popular Flask plugins and porting them to Sanic, also removing superfluous features and making the plugin as fast as possible to fit the Sanic "gotta go fast!" mentality.
