Python library for depositing a function definition inside a temporary module file (mostly for use with multiprocessing and Jupyter Notebook).

PyPI version and link. travis coveralls

Package Installation and Usage

The package is available on PyPI:

python -m pip install capsules

The library can be imported in the usual ways:

import capsules
from capsules import capsules

Adding the capsules decorator to a function definition will (1) automatically deposit that definition inside a temporary module file on disk, (2) import that module file, and (3) assign to the variable of the function being defined the function that was imported from that module:

@capsules
def double(x):
    return x + x

Testing and Conventions

All unit tests are executed and their coverage is measured when using nose (see setup.cfg for configution details):

nosetests

Style conventions are enforced using Pylint:

pylint capsules
