Welcome To PyMan

PyMan is a small library that allows you to build your own CLI to manage your projects. This way you do not have to remember commands to run, you simply navigate your CLI to run those commands.

Installing

PyMan is available from the PyPi repository.

This means that all you have to do to install PyMan is run the following in a console:

$ pip install pyman
Collecting pyman
  Using cached pyman-0.1.3-py2.py3-none-any.whl
Installing collected packages: pyman
Successfully installed pyman-0.1.3

Minimal Example

import pyman

pyman.Main("PyMan - Menu Example", [
    pyman.Action.Cmd( "Hello World", "echo 'Testing PyMan'" ),
    pyman.Action.Exit()
]).cli()

Example Output

How It Works

PyMan uses the idea of Pages and Actions. Each page is made up of a number of actions.

You start off by instanciating the 'Main Menu' class, providing the title you wish to display:

menu = pyman.Main("PyMan - Menu Example")

From here you add other Pages or Actions

menu.add([
    pyman.Action.Exit()
])

pyman.Action.Exit is one of the in-built actions. Other inbuilt actions include:

• pyman.Actions.Cmd
• pyman.Actions.Back
• pyman.Actions.Exit

And finally, you start the CLI with:

menu.cli()
