Recipes, tips, and tricks

I created token-utils to use in various of my projects, adding more features as needed. The main projects in which I use it are:

  • ideas which uses import hooks to modify files, mostly to experiment with alternatives to Python’s syntax.

  • friendly/friendly-traceback which almost always provide better explanation than Python when an exception is raised. In this project, token-utils is used to analyze the code rather than transforming it.

The following are some examples of using token-utils to perform some code transformations. The goal of these examples is mostly to introduce you to token-utils’ API, and the best ways I have found to accomplish certain tasks.
