These are my python scripts which helps me automating grueling tasks my clients gave me. For example: Converting .hpp to .h files.
Table of contents
flatten.py- Convert a recursive src directory to a flat directory.hpp_to_h.py- Convert all .hpp files to .h and fix the includes,mock_maker.py- Make mock files based on a directory,replacer.py- Replace a string with another in a directory recursively.scan.py- Find a string in files from a folder recursively.todo_finder.py- Find //TODO-s in a src folder.
flatten.py
Can be used to flatten a src directory. You can change these values to fine-tune the script for your needs.
src_directory = './src' #The source folder (recursive)
dest_directory = './flattened' #The destination folder
hpp_to_h.py
Can be used to convert all the file and includes of .hpp files to .h files.
Arguments
project_directory: The path of your src folder.
After running the script it will replace your source folder with the modifications so it is recommended to make a backup of your source folder in case something fails.
mock_maker.py
Can be used to create mock files from a directory. This means that if you need testing but you don't want to include all the images/sounds/any big files you are using in your main project, you can create mock files.
These mock files: - Mimic the name and extension of the files in the source folders. - Have 0 content in them, they are just mock files. - Mimic the relative location of the original files.
These mock files can serve as a replacement for your original files in your testing environment.
Arguments
source: The directory where the original files are being located.
destination: The destination directory where the mock files will be created.
replacer.py
Can be used to find and replace a string in all files of a directory.
Input
input_dir: The directory to scan.
search_str: The string to find.
repl_str: The string which will replace the original string.
html_only: If "y" then only .php and .html files will be scanned.
scan.py
Can be used to find a string in all files of a directory.
Input
input_dir: The directory to scan.
search_str: The string to find.
html_only: If "y" then only .php and .html files will be scanned.
todo_finder.py
Find //TODO-s in a src folder.
Input
folder_path: The directory where the TODO comments need to be listed.
