I am working on a project that finds if a user is available or not on Instagram, (Basically that's only one of the functions.)
To do that I use this code from requests:
def start():
clear() # Clears the previous input through the OS module
print(inp + cut + "Stress them is booting...") # Inp + Cut are optional strings
use = input("Who do you want to attack? Enter here: >> ") # We take the input from here (Specifically the user)
response = requests.get("https://www.instagram.com/"+xuse+"/") # Check if the user exists, this does not work if you put # in the beginning.
if response.status_code == 404 :
PrintFatalError("User could not be found, try again.") # The user wasn't found
# Here the program stops and returns to the main program / input where I ask the user for a command.
elif response.status_code == 200 :
PrintFatalError("User " + use + " has been detected ! Proceed with the tool? ") # The user was found
f = input(" ") # This is the point
if f in "y":
print ("Beginning")
else:
print("Not a valid option, aborting.") # I abort since I don't want a loop in this phase.
Some other info that might help:
The program is fully CLI, I don't use a GUI.
This program uses while loops instead of for loops, for many reasons.
NOTE: PrintFatalError is a variable I created to display messages in red / green color. It still does not work with the classic print("string") way through.

While loop to check for valid user input? [duplicate]
(3 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
I am trying to write a simple block of python code that I would like to reuse in future programs. It will check to see if a password is correct and if it is not return to the first line of code and start the process again. The way I am attempting to accomplish that gives me an error. Can anyone help me find a better solution?? Here is the code I am currently using:
def password_checker():
program_acceptance = "Welcome to the Program! "
acceptable_password = "Godisgood"
print("Please Enter the Password")
while True:
password = input("Password: ")
if password == acceptable_password:
print(program_acceptance)
break
if password != acceptable_password:
print("Invalid password, please try again..."
break
That last break statement should be removed to ensure that the program keeps looping when a false password is provided.
def password_checker():
program_acceptance = "Welcome to the Program! "
acceptable_password = "Godisgood"
print("Please Enter the Password")
while True:
password = input("Password: ")
if password == acceptable_password:
print(program_acceptance)
break
if password != acceptable_password:
print("Invalid password, please try again...")
password_checker()
I have a program that comminucate with user. I'm taking data from user with input() but, I want to tell user, for example if user typing a swearword, I want to print You are swearing! Delete it immediately! while user is typing.
As you know, firstly Python is waiting for until input() is done. My goal is access to input() before it's done then I can print You are swearing! Delete it immediately! while user typing.
There is too many dicts and functions in my program so I'm going to write an example that relevant about my main problem.
print ("Let's talk..")
isim=input("What's your name?: ")
print ("Hi there {}.".format(isim))
no=["badwords","morebadwords"]
while True:
user=input(u">>>{}: ".format(isim)).lower()
for ct in user.split():
if ct in no:
print ("You are swearing! Delete it immediately! ")
But it's not working because Python is waiting first until user input is done. How can I do this while user is typing? -Python 3.4, Windows-
I don't have much experience in this, you probably can find some package to do what you want.
But in general, you need to implement some line editing and while implementing it scan the input.
The idea of the getch function is to enable you to get callback after each key press. The code is cross platform between unix and windows.
To use it, just import getch from getch.
With limited support only to backspace, you can write something like this:
from getch import getch
import sys
def is_bad(text):
no=["badwords","morebadwords"]
words = text.split()
for w in words:
if w in no:
return True
return False
def main():
print 'Enter something'
text = ''
sys.stdout.write('')
while True:
ch = getch()
if ord(ch) == 13:
sys.stdout.write('\n')
break
if ord(ch) == 127:
if text:
text = text[:-1]
# first one to delete, so we add spaces
sys.stdout.write('\r' + text + ' ')
sys.stdout.write('\r' + text)
else:
text += ch
sys.stdout.write(ch)
if is_bad(text):
print 'You are writing something bad...'
print 'text = %s' % text
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
The code should be improved by splitting to clearer functions and you should also handle the after bad message typing, but I hope you get the idea.
Hope it would help.
Hello, my question is regarding a Python script I am trying to get to work. The point of this is that when someone makes a SVN Commit they see a login template with four lines: Branch, Bug_Number, Feature affected and Overview. Now I am trying to write a script to make sure that they wrote something on it to make sure no one enters a empty log to commit.
Here is what I have so far in python its based on a old python script.
print "Importing the items"
import re
import sys
import os
print "Initializing the list."
argsList = []
hndFile = open(sys.argv[1],"r")
for line in hndFile:
argsList.append(line)
hndFile.close()
print "Checking what is blank"
faOK = ovOK = False
for line in argsList:
line = line.strip()
if line.startswith('FEATURE_AFFECTED:'):
faOK = line[17:] != ''
if line.startswith('OVERVIEW:'):
ovOK = line[9:] != ''
if not faOK:
print "You Must Enter the Feature Affected"
ret = -1
elif not ovOK:
print "You Must Enter an Overview of the Fix"
ret = -1
else:
ret = 0
print "Finishing the script"
sys.exit(ret)
Any advice would help. I am using Windows XP and currently nothing is happening. I am also using collabnet svn. Currently nothing is happening when I try to run this script. I know I haven't added svnlook in the script I cant really think of where to add and for the variable for it. Thank you.

Why is Python running my module when I import it, and how do I stop it?

I'm writing a Python program for fun but got stuck trying to import a function from a class in another file. Here is my code:
#jurassic park mainframe
from random import randint
from sys import exit
from comm_system import Comm_system #the file i want to import from
class Jpark_mainframe(object):
def mainframe_home(self):
print "=====Welcome to the Jurassic Park Mainframe====="
print "==========Security Administration==============="
print "===========Communications Systems==============="
print "===============System Settings=================="
print "===================Quit========================="
prompt = raw_input("What would you like to do? ")
while prompt != "Quit":
if prompt == "Security Administration":
print "Please enter the 5-digit passcode:"
security_passcode = "%d%d%d%d%d" % (2, 0, 1, 2, randint(1, 2))
security_guess = raw_input(": ")
security_guesses = 0
while security_guess != security_passcode and security_guesses < 7:
print "Incorrect. Please enter the security passcode."
security_guesses += 1
security_guess = raw_input(": ")
if security_guess == security_passcode:
print "=========Security Administration======="
print "Area 1 Fences: Off"
print "Area 2 Fences: On"
print "Area 3 Fences: Off"
print "Velociraptor Compound: Off"
print "Lobby Security System: Off"
print "Entrance Facility System: Off"
print "To enable all systems, enter 'On'"
enable_security = raw_input(": ")
if enable_security == "On":
print "Systems Online."
if prompt == "System Settings":
print "You do not have access to system settings."
exit(0)
if prompt == "Communications Systems":
print "===========Communications Systems==========="
print "error: 'comm_link' missing in directories"
exit(0)
return Comm_system.run #this is where I want to return the
#the other file
the_game = jpark_mainframe()
the_game.mainframe_home()
I want to return a function called run() from a class in another file. When I import the file, it first runs the class with run() in it, then proceeds to run the original code. Why does this happen?
Here is the code from comm_system:
#communication systems
from sys import exit
class Comm_system(object):
def run(self):
comm_directory = ["net_link", "tsfa_run", "j_link"]
print "When the system rebooted, some files necessary for"
print "communicating with the mainland got lost in the directory."
print "The files were poorly labeled as a result of sloppy"
print "programming on the staff's part. You must locate the"
print "the file and contact the rescue team before the dinosaurs"
print "surround the visitor's center. You were also notified the"
print "generators were shorting out, and the mainframe will lose"
print "power at any moment. Which directory will you search in?"
print "you don't have much time! Option 1: cd /comm_sys/file"
print "Option 2: cd /comm_sys/dis"
print "Option 3: cd /comm_sys/comm"
dir_choice = raw_input("jpark_edwin$ ")
if dir_choice == "/comm_sys/file" or dir_choice == "/comm_sys/dis":
print "misc.txt"
print "You couldn't locate the file!"
print "The system lost power and your computer shut down on you!"
print "You will not be able to reach the mainland until the system"
print "comes back online, and it will be too late by then."
return 'death'
if dir_choice == "/comm_sys/comm":
comm_directory.append("comm_link")
print comm_directory
print "You found the right file and activated it!"
print "Just in time too, because the computers shut down on you."
print "The phonelines are radios are still online."
print "You and the other survivors quickly call the mainlane"
print "and help is on the way. You all run to the roof and wait"
print "until the helocopter picks you up. You win!"
a_game = Comm_system()
a_game.run()
from otherfile import TheClass
theclass = TheClass()
# if you want to return the output of run
return theclass.run()
# if you want to return run itself to be used later
return theclass.run
Change the end of comm system to:
if __name__ == '__main__':
a_game = Comm_system()
a_game.run()
It's those lines being always run that are causing it to be run when imported as well as when executed.
from FOLDER_NAME import FILENAME
from FILENAME import CLASS_NAME FUNCTION_NAME
FILENAME is w/o the suffix
First you need to make sure if both of your files are in the same working directory. Next, you can import the whole file. For example,
import myClass
or you can import the entire class and entire functions from the file. For example,
from myClass import
Finally, you need to create an instance of the class from the original file and call the instance objects.
If, like me, you want to make a function pack or something that people can download then it's very simple. Just write your function in a python file and save it as the name you want IN YOUR PYTHON DIRECTORY. Now, in your script where you want to use this, you type:
from FILE NAME import FUNCTION NAME
Note - the parts in capital letters are where you type the file name and function name.
Now you just use your function however it was meant to be.
Example:
FUNCTION SCRIPT - saved at C:\Python27 as function_choose.py
def choose(a):
from random import randint
b = randint(0, len(a) - 1)
c = a[b]
return(c)
SCRIPT USING FUNCTION - saved wherever
from function_choose import choose
list_a = ["dog", "cat", "chicken"]
print(choose(list_a))
OUTPUT WILL BE DOG, CAT, OR CHICKEN
Hoped this helped, now you can create function packs for download!
--------------------------------This is for Python 2.7-------------------------------------
It would really help if you'd include the code that's not working (from the 'other' file), but I suspect you could do what you want with a healthy dose of the 'eval' function.
For example:
def run():
print "this does nothing"
def chooser():
return "run"
def main():
'''works just like:
run()'''
eval(chooser())()
The chooser returns the name of the function to execute, eval then turns a string into actual code to be executed in-place, and the parentheses finish off the function call.
You can use the below syntax -
from FolderName.FileName import Classname
