adds some short flags as CLI flags for convenience
the --stream flag previously only affected json, but
I can imagine '-o pprint -s -l 5' to print the first
5 items from some function could be useful as well
prior to this change it would error with
@dataclass
> class pushshift_config(uconfig.pushshift):
E AttributeError: type object 'test_config' has no attribute 'pushshift'
also updated the MODULE_DESIGN docs to mention the
current workaround for converting single file
modules to namespace packages through the
deprecation warning
* initial pushshift/rexport merge implementation, using id for merging
* smarter module deprecation warning using regex
* add `RedditBase` from promnesia
* `import_source` helper for gracefully handing mixin data sources
* my.core.serialize: simplejson support, more types
I added a couple extra checks to the default function,
serializing datetime, dates and dataclasses (incase
orjson isn't installed)
(copied from below)
if orjson couldn't be imported, try simplejson
This is included for compatibility reasons because orjson
is rust-based and compiling on rarer architectures may not work
out of the box
as an example, I've been having issues getting it to install
on my phone (termux/android)
unlike the builtin JSON modue which serializes NamedTuples as lists
(even if you provide a default function), simplejson correctly
serializes namedtuples to dictionaries
this just gives another option to people, simplejson is pure python
so no one should have issues with that. orjson is still way faster,
so still preferable if its easy and theres a precompiled build
for your architecture (which there typically is)
If you're ever running this with simplejson installed and not orjson,
its pretty easy to tell as the JSON styling is different; orjson has
no spaces between tokens, simplejson puts spaces between tokens. e.g.
simplejson: {"a": 5, "b": 10}
orjson: {"a":5,"b":10}
allows you to do something like
hpi query --stream my.reddit.comments
to stream the JSON objects one per line, makes
it nicer to pipe into 'jq'/'fzf' instead
of having to process the giant list
at the end
