"""Conversion pipeline templates.
|
|
|
|
The problem:
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Suppose you have some data that you want to convert to another format,
|
|
such as from GIF image format to PPM image format. Maybe the
|
|
conversion involves several steps (e.g. piping it through compress or
|
|
uuencode). Some of the conversion steps may require that their input
|
|
is a disk file, others may be able to read standard input; similar for
|
|
their output. The input to the entire conversion may also be read
|
|
from a disk file or from an open file, and similar for its output.
|
|
|
|
The module lets you construct a pipeline template by sticking one or
|
|
more conversion steps together. It will take care of creating and
|
|
removing temporary files if they are necessary to hold intermediate
|
|
data. You can then use the template to do conversions from many
|
|
different sources to many different destinations. The temporary
|
|
file names used are different each time the template is used.
|
|
|
|
The templates are objects so you can create templates for many
|
|
different conversion steps and store them in a dictionary, for
|
|
instance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Directions:
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
To create a template:
|
|
t = Template()
|
|
|
|
To add a conversion step to a template:
|
|
t.append(command, kind)
|
|
where kind is a string of two characters: the first is '-' if the
|
|
command reads its standard input or 'f' if it requires a file; the
|
|
second likewise for the output. The command must be valid /bin/sh
|
|
syntax. If input or output files are required, they are passed as
|
|
$IN and $OUT; otherwise, it must be possible to use the command in
|
|
a pipeline.
|
|
|
|
To add a conversion step at the beginning:
|
|
t.prepend(command, kind)
|
|
|
|
To convert a file to another file using a template:
|
|
sts = t.copy(infile, outfile)
|
|
If infile or outfile are the empty string, standard input is read or
|
|
standard output is written, respectively. The return value is the
|
|
exit status of the conversion pipeline.
|
|
|
|
To open a file for reading or writing through a conversion pipeline:
|
|
fp = t.open(file, mode)
|
|
where mode is 'r' to read the file, or 'w' to write it -- just like
|
|
for the built-in function open() or for os.popen().
|
|
|
|
To create a new template object initialized to a given one:
|
|
t2 = t.clone()
