# qod
|
||
|
|
||
|
[See the Documentation](https://godoc.org/github.com/jtolds/qod)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Package `qod` should NOT be used in a serious software engineering
|
||
|
environment. `qod` stands for Quick and Dirty bahaha I just realized I got the
|
||
|
acronym wrong. It's fine. It's on brand. Quick AND Dirty.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The context is I noticed that Go is my favorite language, but when a task
|
||
|
gets too complicated for a shell pipeline or `awk` or something, I turn to
|
||
|
Python. Why not Go?
|
||
|
|
||
|
In Python, I'd frequently write something like:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```python
|
||
|
for line in sys.stdin:
|
||
|
vals = map(int, line.split())
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Here that is in Go:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
package main
|
||
|
|
||
|
import (
|
||
|
"bufio"
|
||
|
"fmt"
|
||
|
"os"
|
||
|
"strconv"
|
||
|
"strings"
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
|
||
|
func main() {
|
||
|
scanner := bufio.NewScanner(os.Stdin)
|
||
|
for scanner.Scan() {
|
||
|
var vals []int64
|
||
|
for _, str := range strings.Fields(scanner.Text()) {
|
||
|
val, err := strconv.ParseInt(str, 10, 64)
|
||
|
if err != nil {
|
||
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
vals = append(vals, val)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
if err := scanner.Err(); err != nil {
|
||
|
panic(err)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ugh! Considering I don't care about this throwaway shell pipeline
|
||
|
replacement, I'm clearly fine with it blowing up if something's wrong, and
|
||
|
wow this was too much.
|
||
|
|
||
|
`qod` allows me to write the same type of thing in Go. Here is a
|
||
|
reimplementation of the Python code above using `qod`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```go
|
||
|
package main
|
||
|
|
||
|
import (
|
||
|
"os"
|
||
|
"strings"
|
||
|
|
||
|
"github.com/jtolds/qod"
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
|
||
|
func main() {
|
||
|
for line := range qod.Lines(os.Stdin) {
|
||
|
vals := qod.Int64Slice(strings.Fields(line))
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Better! I'm more likely to use Go now for little scripts!
|
||
|
|
||
|
*Reminder:* don't use this for anything real. Most of the stuff in here
|
||
|
panics at the sight of any errors. That's obviously Bad and Wrong and you
|
||
|
should actually handle your errors. Set up your build system's linter to
|
||
|
reject anything that imports `github.com/jtolds/qod` please. If you have a
|
||
|
build system for what you're doing at all this isn't for you. If you have
|
||
|
some one-off tab-delimited data you need to process real quick like I seem
|
||
|
to ALL THE TIME then okay.
