mega-copy

This is a tool that helps to edit/refactor code in bulk. Useful when developing few similar features in your system

It works with:

1. Python files in "special" (Python-language specific) mode
2. "Other" files in "simple" (format-agnostic) mode

Installation & Usage

1. Clone this repo:

git clone https://github.com/andrewboltachev/mega-copy.git

2. Create virtual environment:

mkvirtualenv mega-copy # (or use venv)
pip install -r requirements.txt

and a helper script to run the tool (e.g. ~/bin/mega-copy.sh):

/home/andrey/.virtualenvs/mega-copy/bin/python /home/myuser/mega-copy/mega-copy.py $@

2. Suppose you want to refactor your Python code, replacing something called "property sale" to something else named "sales order". Run:

> mega.copy.sh pyshow property-sale sales-order

The tool will generate the following "replace map" (taking into account all possible spellings):

{
    "propertysale": "salesorder",
    "property sale": "sales order",
    "property-sale": "sales-order",
    "property_sale": "sales_order",
    "PROPERTYSALE": "SALESORDER",
    "PROPERTY SALE": "SALES ORDER",
    "PROPERTY-SALE": "SALES-ORDER",
    "PROPERTY_SALE": "SALES_ORDER",
    "PropertySale": "SalesOrder",
    "Property Sale": "Sales Order",
    "Property-Sale": "Sales-Order",
    "Property_Sale": "Sales_Order",
    "Propertysale": "Salesorder",
    "Property sale": "Sales order",
    "Property-sale": "Sales-order",
    "Property_sale": "Sales_order",
    "propertySale": "salesOrder",
    "property Sale": "sales Order",
    "property-Sale": "sales-Order",
    "property_Sale": "sales_Order"
}

and below show all Python code expressions affected by it in code (your current directory)

Instead of pyshow you can then use another command — pyren, to rename all occurencies in the code in-place
