spy: a Python CLI

pip install spy-cli

spy stands for “<b>s</b>tream <b>py</b>thon”. It's a CLI for python that chains fragments of code together. It's inspired by pyped and pythonpy.

I built spy primarily because I wanted a more pure interface than either of the above offer; I'd like to think I succeeded, but I'm sure it can be improved upon, so please let me know if you see a way to make it nicer.

spy is compatible with, and thoroughly tested on, Python 3.5 and newer.

The docs, including introduction, are available on ReadTheDocs.

If you have any suggestions or feedback or anything, I'll probably be in #spy on irc.libera.chat.
