Utilities needed to emulate Python's interactive interpreter.


Classes

CommandCompiler

Instances of this class have __call__ methods identical in
    signature to compile_command; the difference is that if the
    instance compiles program text containing a __future__ statement,
    the instance 'remembers' and compiles all subsequent program texts
    with the statement in force.

InteractiveConsole

Closely emulate the behavior of the interactive Python interpreter.

    This class builds on InteractiveInterpreter and adds prompting
    using the familiar sys.ps1 and sys.ps2, and input buffering.

    
interact(self, banner=None, exitmsg=None)

  Closely emulate the interactive Python console.

          The optional banner argument specifies the banner to print
          before the first interaction; by default it prints a banner
          similar to the one printed by the real Python interpreter,
          followed by the current class name in parentheses (so as not
          to confuse this with the real interpreter -- since it's so
          close!).

          The optional exitmsg argument specifies the exit message
          printed when exiting. Pass the empty string to suppress
          printing an exit message. If exitmsg is not given or None,
          a default message is printed.

        
push(self, line)

  Push a line to the interpreter.

          The line should not have a trailing newline; it may have
          internal newlines.  The line is appended to a buffer and the
          interpreter's runsource() method is called with the
          concatenated contents of the buffer as source.  If this
          indicates that the command was executed or invalid, the buffer
          is reset; otherwise, the command is incomplete, and the buffer
          is left as it was after the line was appended.  The return
          value is 1 if more input is required, 0 if the line was dealt
          with in some way (this is the same as runsource()).

        
raw_input(self, prompt='')

  Write a prompt and read a line.

          The returned line does not include the trailing newline.
          When the user enters the EOF key sequence, EOFError is raised.

          The base implementation uses the built-in function
          input(); a subclass may replace this with a different
          implementation.

        
resetbuffer(self)

  Reset the input buffer.
runcode(self, code)

  Execute a code object.

          When an exception occurs, self.showtraceback() is called to
          display a traceback.  All exceptions are caught except
          SystemExit, which is reraised.

          A note about KeyboardInterrupt: this exception may occur
          elsewhere in this code, and may not always be caught.  The
          caller should be prepared to deal with it.

        
runsource(self, source, filename='<input>', symbol='single')

  Compile and run some source in the interpreter.

          Arguments are as for compile_command().

          One of several things can happen:

          1) The input is incorrect; compile_command() raised an
          exception (SyntaxError or OverflowError).  A syntax traceback
          will be printed by calling the showsyntaxerror() method.

          2) The input is incomplete, and more input is required;
          compile_command() returned None.  Nothing happens.

          3) The input is complete; compile_command() returned a code
          object.  The code is executed by calling self.runcode() (which
          also handles run-time exceptions, except for SystemExit).

          The return value is True in case 2, False in the other cases (unless
          an exception is raised).  The return value can be used to
          decide whether to use sys.ps1 or sys.ps2 to prompt the next
          line.

        
showsyntaxerror(self, filename=None)

  Display the syntax error that just occurred.

          This doesn't display a stack trace because there isn't one.

          If a filename is given, it is stuffed in the exception instead
          of what was there before (because Python's parser always uses
          "<string>" when reading from a string).

          The output is written by self.write(), below.

        
showtraceback(self)

  Display the exception that just occurred.

          We remove the first stack item because it is our own code.

          The output is written by self.write(), below.

        
write(self, data)

  Write a string.

          The base implementation writes to sys.stderr; a subclass may
          replace this with a different implementation.

        

InteractiveInterpreter

Base class for InteractiveConsole.

    This class deals with parsing and interpreter state (the user's
    namespace); it doesn't deal with input buffering or prompting or
    input file naming (the filename is always passed in explicitly).

    
runcode(self, code)

  Execute a code object.

          When an exception occurs, self.showtraceback() is called to
          display a traceback.  All exceptions are caught except
          SystemExit, which is reraised.

          A note about KeyboardInterrupt: this exception may occur
          elsewhere in this code, and may not always be caught.  The
          caller should be prepared to deal with it.

        
runsource(self, source, filename='<input>', symbol='single')

  Compile and run some source in the interpreter.

          Arguments are as for compile_command().

          One of several things can happen:

          1) The input is incorrect; compile_command() raised an
          exception (SyntaxError or OverflowError).  A syntax traceback
          will be printed by calling the showsyntaxerror() method.

          2) The input is incomplete, and more input is required;
          compile_command() returned None.  Nothing happens.

          3) The input is complete; compile_command() returned a code
          object.  The code is executed by calling self.runcode() (which
          also handles run-time exceptions, except for SystemExit).

          The return value is True in case 2, False in the other cases (unless
          an exception is raised).  The return value can be used to
          decide whether to use sys.ps1 or sys.ps2 to prompt the next
          line.

        
showsyntaxerror(self, filename=None)

  Display the syntax error that just occurred.

          This doesn't display a stack trace because there isn't one.

          If a filename is given, it is stuffed in the exception instead
          of what was there before (because Python's parser always uses
          "<string>" when reading from a string).

          The output is written by self.write(), below.

        
showtraceback(self)

  Display the exception that just occurred.

          We remove the first stack item because it is our own code.

          The output is written by self.write(), below.

        
write(self, data)

  Write a string.

          The base implementation writes to sys.stderr; a subclass may
          replace this with a different implementation.

        

Functions

compile_command

compile_command(source, filename='<input>', symbol='single')

  Compile a command and determine whether it is incomplete.

      Arguments:

      source -- the source string; may contain \n characters
      filename -- optional filename from which source was read; default
                  "<input>"
      symbol -- optional grammar start symbol; "single" (default), "exec"
                or "eval"

      Return value / exceptions raised:

      - Return a code object if the command is complete and valid
      - Return None if the command is incomplete
      - Raise SyntaxError, ValueError or OverflowError if the command is a
        syntax error (OverflowError and ValueError can be produced by
        malformed literals).
    

interact

interact(banner=None, readfunc=None, local=None, exitmsg=None)

  Closely emulate the interactive Python interpreter.

      This is a backwards compatible interface to the InteractiveConsole
      class.  When readfunc is not specified, it attempts to import the
      readline module to enable GNU readline if it is available.

      Arguments (all optional, all default to None):

      banner -- passed to InteractiveConsole.interact()
      readfunc -- if not None, replaces InteractiveConsole.raw_input()
      local -- passed to InteractiveInterpreter.__init__()
      exitmsg -- passed to InteractiveConsole.interact()
