a python refactoring library...
Project description
Overview
rope is a python refactoring library and IDE. The IDE uses the library to provide features like refactoring, code assist, and auto-completion. It is written in python. The IDE uses Tkinter library.
Rope IDE and library are released in two separate packages. rope package contains only the library and ropeide package contains the IDE and the library.
New Features
Handling imports when inlining
Handling recursive restructurings
Better diff highlighting
Inline method refactoring can add imports when necessary. For instance consider mod1.py is:
import sys
class C(object):
pass
def do_something():
print sys.version
return C()
and mod2.py is:
import mod1 c = mod1.do_something()
After inlining do_something, mod2.py would be:
import mod1 import sys print sys.version c = mod1.C()
Also rope can inline class methods; for instance in:
class C(object):
@classmethod
def say_hello(cls, name):
return 'Saying hello to %s from %s' % (name, cls.__name__)
hello = C.say_hello('Rope')
inlining say_hello will result in:
class C(object):
pass
hello = 'Saying hello to %s from %s' % ('Rope', C.__name__)
Restructurings can handle recursive patterns like searching for ${?a} // ${?b} in 1 // 2 // 3. Also the diffs in show history and preview changes dialog are highlighted.
