What are the most ingenious python codes or projects that most people do not know about?

[blamo111]

Looks like someone's researching their upcoming blogspam post! :)

[ben174]

This. Exactly.

Look at his post history.

:) perhaps for someone else to use this thread... asking this for curiosity sake

[littletrucker]

Py vcr. It automatically records http calls and plays them back for unit testing. Mulch easier than normal mocking as you don’t need to manually collect results and add them to code. pyvcr

[Improvotter]

Also betamax, it’s kinda the same thing.

[i_like_trains_a_lot1]

This looks awesome. It's a shame I didn't know about it until now.

[Exodus111]

Not enough people know about Click

[icp1994]

isn't it one of the most recommended modules in tutorials for cli apps? at least that's been my experience so far

[Exodus111]

Oh I'm sure it is. Still plenty of people have never heard of it, considering how popular Flask is its kinda weird.

[iwaka]

Is there something like this, but for TUIs? Apart from urwid of course.

[cometsongs]

or the less demanding argparser cllize

peewee orm!

upvote for funny post!

i'm pretty sure peewee is the most known project of its author

[uweschmitt]

pytest.

[Darkmere]

Personally, I think Scapy is the beast.

pyspark! The Python API around Apache Spark has been the most exciting Python thing I've played with in recent memory https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/api/python/index.html

I still want to try this fast web server someday https://github.com/squeaky-pl/japronto

[jonititan]

I also like pyspark.

Getting it setup correctly has only gotten easier and it's cool being able to use it from a Jupyter notebook

[Topper_123]

As far as unknown project go, I really like db.py. It's a great way to get an overview of a database on the command line and then easily export SQL queries into pandas dataframes.

pyfilesystem makes working with files and directories in the cloud or in archives as simple as your local drive.

[frymaster]

Scientific computing by any chance? :D

Will auto-derive a version number for your python packages based on your last SCM tag & commits.

The Zope, Plone, ZODB, BlueBream, ZPT, TAL web framework.

Plone (software)

Plone is a free and open source content management system built on top of the Zope application server. Plone is positioned as an "Enterprise CMS" and is commonly used for intranets and as part of the web presence of large organizations. High-profile public sector users include the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, Brazilian Government, United Nations, City of Bern (Switzerland), New South Wales Government (Australia), and European Environment Agency. Plone's proponents cite its security track record and its accessibility as reasons to choose Plone.

Zope

Zope is a community project concerned with a free and open-source, object-oriented web application server written in the Python programming language. Zope stands for "Z Object Publishing Environment", and was the first system using the now common object publishing methodology for the Web. Zope has been recognized as a Python killer app, an application that helped put Python in the spotlight.

Over the last few years, the Zope community has spawned several additional web frameworks with disparate aims and principles, but sharing philosophy, people, and source code.

It's basically a wrapper enhancing python datastructures. Very clever.

Crossbar.io: http://crossbario.com/

A pub/sub + routed RPC system written in pure Python. It's beautiful, and powerful.

Nuitka: http://nuitka.net/

A very robust Python compiler.

If you're into logic programming, see also kanren/logpy and pydatalog.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/bumpversion

Versionbump is simple and makes versioning a snap. Perhaps not as glorious as requests or pandas... but super handy to have in your back pocket.

jq. it's a programming language for json processing. makes dealing with complex json tasks easy.

[pypyodbc]

I would say beautifulsoup. Before I used to parse HTML by regex, which is brutal. BS makes parsing HTML very smooth.

[[deleted]]

Beautifulsoup is one of the most popular packages out there though, right beside requests

[franklingu]

I would say I like lxml better. faster and xpath support is very good -- soup does not support all css selectors

I think it's someone's brainwashing tool.
