PyDidYouMean

A module to improve "file/command not found" error messages with "did you mean" suggestions.

Install with:

pip install pydidyoumean

Typical usage:

if FILE_NOT_FOUND:
  pydidyoumean.printFileSuggestion(FILENAME) # if no suggested file is found in the cwd, this prints nothing
  # prints out "Did you mean %s?\n" % (SUGGESTED_FILENAME)

if COMMAND_NOT_FOUND:
  pydidyoumean.printSuggestion(CMD_NAME, LIST_OF_ALL_CMDS) # if no suggested command is found, this prints nothing
  # prints out "Did you mean %s?\n" % (SUGGESTED_CMD)

There are several other functions and optional parameters for customizing the message or getting the recommendations. Docs are at https://pydidyoumean.readthedocs.org
