Python package

py-linq

LINQ (Language Integrated Query) is a popular querying language available in .NET. This library ports the language so that developers can query collections of objects using the same syntax. This library would be useful for Python developers with experience using the expressiveness and power of LINQ.

Install

Available as a package from PyPI.

pip install py-linq

Usage

To access the LINQ functions an iterable needs to be wrapped by the Enumerable

from py_linq import Enumerable
my_collection = Enumerable([1,2,3])

Contributing

Contributions are welcomed. This project uses pipenv to handle the few library dependencies. Pre-commit is also used so that formatting and linting checks are performed on commit.

  1. Clone the repository using git clone https://github.com/viralogic/py-enumerable.git
  2. Install pipenv globally pip install pipenv
  3. CD into the root of your cloned repository directory and pipenv install --dev to install all packages from the repository Pipfile.
  4. Install pre-commit by typing pipenv run pre-commit install
  5. You should now be ready to start coding!
