Print Extended

Extended functionalists and better control over Python's built-in print function

Installation

> pip install print-extended

Usage

If you run Python interpreter with -O flag print will be disabled (watches for __debug__):

python -O

>>> import print_extended
>>> print('foo')
>>>

Runing it without -O flag works normal:

python

>>> import print_extended
>>> print('foo')
foo
>>>

Control your print with PrintControl class:

from print_extended import PrintControl

PrintControl.template = '--> {print} <--'
PrintControl.fg_color = 'green'
PrintControl.bg_color = 'blue'

Change underlying print function:

from pprint import pprint
from print_extended import PrintControl

PrintControl.print_function = pprint

print({...}) # will print it using pprint

Disable and enable printing

from print_extended import PrintControl

PrintControl.disable() # print(...) now does nothing

PrintControl.enable() # print(...) now prints
