a python refactoring library...
Project description
Overview
Rope is a python refactoring library.
New Features
supporting builtin and c-extension modules
added in_hierarchy option to find occurrences
faster class hierarchy analysis for refactorings
added maxfixes to get doc and get definition location
deprecated codeassist templates
added extension_modules project config
If a module cannot be found in python path, rope looks it up in extension_modules project config; if it exists there, rope imports it and analyzes its contents (rather than analyzing the source code which is done for normal modules).
in_hierarchy parameter (for matching all matching methods in class hierarchies) and implicit interfaces (activated on attributes of function parameters) have been added to codeassist.find_occurrences() (rename and change signature already support them). Also in_hierarchy option no longer requires scanning all files for making the class hierarchy, so it is much faster.
codeassist module used to support templates. But templates are much more related to IDEs and most IDEs support them separately; so functions and parameters related to them are deprecated now.
