# Autometa

**Autometa** is a simple & focused solution to reading metadata from a variety of file formats into a python class obj

---- Using Autometa Object ---- (Best if using files or for improved functionality)
```python
>>> import autometa
>>> md = Autometa(absolute_file_path="/example/file/path") # optional to pass filepath... use for metadata file
>>> md.update_metadata(toml_var="META_TOML") #toml_var only needed if you are reading a toml string from a .py 

>>> md.get_metadata()
{'project': {'dependencies': ['example1', 'example2', 'example3']}}

>>> md.parse_dependencies()
"Dependencies successfully parsed: ['example1', 'example2', 'example3']"

>>>md.pip_install_dependencies(dependencies=["additionalPkg1", "additionalPkg2"]) # installs related packages as well
'''Collecting additionalPkg1 -> install attempt...  Collecting additionalPkg2 -> install attempt...
   Collecting example1... -> install attempt, Collecting example2 -> install attempt... ,
   Collecting example3 -> install attempt...  '''

>>> md.pip_uninstall_dependencies(exclusions=["additionalPkg1","example1"]) 
                                                    # will remove newly installed related packages as well 
'''Found existing installation: example2 -> Uninstalling example2...
   Found existing installation: example3 -> Uninstalling example3...
'''
```

---- Using Autometa API ---- (Quicker but less functionality-- Uninstall API not as fully developed as autometa object)
```python
>>> import autometa
>>> md = autometa.fetch_metadata(absolute_file_path="/example/file/path", toml_var="META_TOML") #toml_var only needed 
                                                                        # if you are reading a toml string from a .py 
{'project': {'dependencies': ['example1', 'example2', 'example3']}}

>>> dependencies = autometa.fetch_dependencies(absolute_file_path="/example/file/path", toml_table_key="project",
                                               toml_table_value="dependencies")
"Dependencies successfully parsed: ['example1', 'example2', 'example3']"

>>>md = autometa.pip_install(absolute_file_path="/example/file/path", 
                             manual_input_list=["additionalPkg1", "additionalPkg2"],
                             toml_table_key="project",toml_table_value="dependencies")
'''Collecting additionalPkg1 -> install attempt...  Collecting additionalPkg2 -> install attempt...
   Collecting example1... -> install attempt, Collecting example2 -> install attempt... ,
   Collecting example3 -> install attempt...  '''

>>> md.pip_uninstall(absolute_file_path="/example/file/path", 
                             exclusions_list = ["example1","additionalPkg1","additionalPkg2"],
                             toml_table_key="project",toml_table_value="dependencies")
'''Found existing installation: example2 -> Uninstalling example2...
   Found existing installation: example3 -> Uninstalling example3...
'''
```

autometa allows you to easily parse in data from .json, .yaml/.yml, .toml, and .py files into a dictionary object in 
    a python class object with a helper function to parse in a list of dependencies listed in said files.

## Installing autometa

autometa is available on PyPI:

```console
$ python -m pip install autometa
```

## Features & Best Practices

- Parse in a variety of formatted data into an object holding a dictionary of parsed data using a single function call
- Pip install / uninstall a list of user-input or file-fed dependencies
- By default, dependencies are searched for under a structure that looks like this:
  - for .json:\
    {\
        "project":\
                {\
                    "dependencies": ['example1', 'example2', 'example3']\
                }\
    }\

  - for .yaml/.yml:\
    project:\
        dependencies: ['example1', 'example2', 'example3']\
  
  - for .toml\
    [project]\
    dependencies = ["scrapy", "requests", "numpy"]\

  - for .py\
    META_TOML = '''\
    [project]\
    dependencies = ["man", "thing", "wahoo"]\
    '''\
