Org2py

usage: org2py [-h] [-o OUTPUT] [-i INDENT] [-m] input

Generates Python class/function stubs from an Org file.

positional arguments:
  input                 Org file to parse.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                        Output file for the generated code, by default STDOUT.
  -i INDENT, --indent INDENT
                        Indentation for generated code (e.g. " "), by default 4 spaces.
  -m, --main            Add "if __name__" boilerplate to the end, by default off.

Format interpretation

The lines starting with a star are either classes, methods, or functions.
- If the first letter is capitalized the line is interpreted as a class.
- If a function is under a class it's a method.
If the first line doesn't have a leading star it's considered a comma-separated list of imports.
- Other lines without a leading star are interpreted as a comma-separated list of parameters for above class/function.

Installation
