Tools for generators, generator functions, and generator-based coroutines.

Key features:

* Create reusable generators
* Compose generators
* Build python 2/3-compatible generators (``gentools`` version <1.2 only)

Installation
------------

.. code-block:: bash

pip install gentools

Examples
--------

- Make generator functions reusable:

.. code-block:: python

>>> @reusable
... def countdown(value, step):
... while value > 0:
... yield value
... value -= step

>>> from_3 = countdown(3, step=1)
>>> list(from_3)
[3, 2, 1]
>>> list(from_3)
[3, 2, 1]
>>> isinstance(from_3, countdown) # generator func is wrapped in a class
True
>>> from_3.step # attribute access to arguments
1
>>> from_3.replace(value=5) # create new instance with replaced fields
countdown(value=5, step=1) # descriptive repr()

- map a generator's ``yield``, ``send``, and ``return`` values:

.. code-block:: python

>>> @map_return('final value: {}'.format)
... @map_send(int)
... @map_yield('the current max is: {}'.format)
... def my_max(value):
... while value < 100:
... newvalue = yield value
... if newvalue > value:
... value = newvalue
... return value

>>> gen = my_max(5)
>>> next(gen)
'the current max is: 5'
>>> gen.send(11.3)
'the current max is: 11'
>>> gen.send(104)
StopIteration('final value: 104')

- relay a generator's yield/send interactions through another generator:

.. code-block:: python

>>> def try_until_positive(outvalue):
... value = yield outvalue
... while value < 0:
... value = yield 'not positive, try again'
... return value

>>> @relay(try_until_positive)
... def my_max(value):
... while value < 100:
... newvalue = yield value
... if newvalue > value:
... value = newvalue
... return value

>>> gen = my_max(5)
>>> next(gen)
5
>>> gen.send(-4)
'not positive, try again'
>>> gen.send(-1)
'not positive, try again'
>>> gen.send(8)
8
>>> gen.send(104)
StopIteration(104)

- make python 2/3 compatible generators with ``return``.
(`gentools` version <1.2 only)

.. code-block:: python

>>> @py2_compatible
... def my_max(value):
... while value < 100:
... newvalue = yield value
... if newvalue > value:
... value = newvalue
... return_(value)
