Ever tried to refactor some python code and trying to find out where you're code is used?
find . -name \*.py | xargs grep foo.bar
is kinda nice, but it'll find imports, comments, and whatnot.
Meet pygrep, it allows you to find all references to your code,
pygrep foo.bar some/dir other/stuff.py
That will show you some output like
file.py(Class.function):lineno foo.bar.full.identifier
In file.py, there's a reference to foo.bar.full.identifier in the method
function in class Class.
At this point, pygrep resolves
from foo import bar
and
from foo import bar as baz
Given this python file foo.py
from mymod.bar import stuff as a
class A:
def m(self):
b = a.mod.method()
all the following commands
pygrep mymod foo.py
pygrep mymod.bar foo.py
pygrep mymod.bar.mod foo.py
pygrep mymod.bar.mod.method foo.py
will return
foo.py(A.m):4 mymod.bar.mod.method
