warning_message

def warning_message(message_lines: List[str]) -> None

Prints warning message to STDERR for non-fatal issues. The first line is prepended with 'jc: Warning - ' and subsequent lines are indented. Wraps text as needed based on the terminal width.

Parameters:

message:   (list) list of string lines

Returns:

None - just prints output to STDERR

error_message

def error_message(message_lines: List[str]) -> None

Prints an error message to STDERR for fatal issues. The first line is prepended with 'jc: Error - ' and subsequent lines are indented. Wraps text as needed based on the terminal width.

Parameters:

message:   (list) list of string lines

Returns:

None - just prints output to STDERR

is_compatible

def is_compatible(compatible: List) -> bool

Returns True if the parser is compatible with the running OS platform.

compatibility

def compatibility(mod_name: str,
                  compatible: List,
                  quiet: bool = False) -> None

Checks for the parser's compatibility with the running OS platform and prints a warning message to STDERR if not compatible and quiet=False.

Parameters:

mod_name:     (string) __name__ of the calling module

compatible:   (list) sys.platform name(s) compatible with
              the parser. compatible options:
              linux, darwin, cygwin, win32, aix, freebsd

quiet:        (bool) supress compatibility message if True

Returns:

None - just prints output to STDERR

has_data

def has_data(data: str) -> bool

Checks if the input contains data. If there are any non-whitespace characters then return True, else return False.

Parameters:

data:        (string) input to check whether it contains data

Returns:

Boolean      True if input string (data) contains non-whitespace
             characters, otherwise False

convert_to_int

def convert_to_int(value: Union[str, float]) -> Optional[int]

Converts string and float input to int. Strips all non-numeric characters from strings.

Parameters:

value:         (string/float) Input value

Returns:

integer/None   Integer if successful conversion, otherwise None

convert_to_float

def convert_to_float(value: Union[str, int]) -> Optional[float]

Converts string and int input to float. Strips all non-numeric characters from strings.

Parameters:

value:         (string/integer) Input value

Returns:

float/None     Float if successful conversion, otherwise None

convert_to_bool

def convert_to_bool(value: Union[str, int, float]) -> bool

Converts string, integer, or float input to boolean by checking for 'truthy' values.

Parameters:

value:          (string/integer/float) Input value

Returns:

True/False      False unless a 'truthy' number or string is found
                ('y', 'yes', 'true', '1', 1, -1, etc.)

input_type_check

def input_type_check(data: str) -> None

Ensure input data is a string. Raises TypeError if not.

timestamp Objects

class timestamp()

__init__

def __init__(datetime_string: str,
             format_hint: Optional[Iterable] = None) -> None

Input a datetime text string of several formats and convert to a naive or timezone-aware epoch timestamp in UTC.

Parameters:

datetime_string  (str):  a string representation of a
    datetime in several supported formats

format_hint  (iterable):  an optional iterable of format ID
    integers to instruct the timestamp object to try those
    formats first in the order given. Other formats will be
    tried after the format hint list is exhausted. This can
    speed up timestamp conversion so several different formats
    don't have to be tried in brute-force fashion.

Returns a timestamp object with the following attributes:

string  (str):  the input datetime string

format  (int | None):  the format rule that was used to decode
    the datetime string. None if conversion fails.

naive  (int | None):  timestamp based on locally configured
    timezone. None if conversion fails.

utc  (int | None):  aware timestamp only if UTC timezone
    detected in datetime string. None if conversion fails.
