Sometimes running a project like flask or a discord bot will remove the flexibility of using console to send commands, This library will revive that with just a simple setup.
To install just use following command
pip install EasyCommandInterfaceIf you are looking for latest beta/alpha, you can use following command
pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/Ashenguard/EasyCommandInterface.gitfrom EasyCommandInterface import CommandInterface
# Only one Interface is allowed, If you try to create another one CommandInterfaceError will be raised.
interface = CommandInterface()
# A simple command, All the arguments are passed as string.
# Example input: test 1 Hi "Hello World!"
# Result: TEST COMMAND: ('1', 'Hi', 'Hello world!')
@interface.command('test')
def _test(*args):
print('TEST COMMAND:', args)
# Another command with fixed arguments! If 2 arguments is not passed, It will raise CommandExecutionError
# Example input: sum 5 5.5
# Result: 10.5
@interface.command('sum')
def _sum(a, b):
print(float(a) + float(b))
# As default, All commands will be executed inside a separate thread, But if you set `thread` to `False`, Command will be executed inside the interface thread
# Example input: sleep
# Result: Nothing - Except for that the interface will not accept another command before this one ends.
@interface.command('sleep', thread=False)
def _sleep(*args):
from time import sleep
sleep(10)
# There is a known issue (Fetal Python Error) when the program ends if the interface is waiting for another command.
# So we recommend using the `stop` method inside a not threaded command to stop the input thread as soon as it receives the command.
# Calling this method outside will stop the thread AFTER it received another command.
@interface.command('exit', thread=False)
def _exit():
interface.stop()
# To start the interface, just say START!
interface.start()
# Since the interface will read all inputs as soon as it starts, If you need an input just use following method. Using `input` might not work as intended
value = interface.get_input('Input something: ')
print("Input received:", value)
# You should keep the program alive since as soon as main program ends, Interface will be closed.
# You can use other projects like a flask or discord bot or ... instead
while interface.is_alive():
