Boltons: A set of BSD-licensed, pure-Python utilities

Library author and lazy README updater here to report that technically as of October 09, 2018, boltons is 79 types and 146 functions, for a grand total of 225 utilities. While I'm here, here are the ones I use most: - OrderedMultiDict: https://boltons.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dictutils.html#bolt... - esp the .inverted() and .sorted() methods - Exponential backoff and jitter generator: https://boltons.readthedocs.io/en/latest/iterutils.html#bolt... - remap (recursive map)…

Very nice collection. I like the cacheutils LRI and LRU setups [1]. Interested in the StringBuffer [2]. The Table object looks useful [3]. Overall some great additions in utils that you can tell were added through usage and shipping needs especially in strutils, listutils, formatutils etc. Lots of common ones in our own python or other platform libs. In any review there is always a few WTFs like this one [4]. I am surprised you didn't get arrested during that…

> Boltons is a set of over 230 BSD-licensed, pure-Python utilities in the same spirit as — and yet conspicuously missing from — the standard library, including: > Atomic file saving, bolted on with fileutils > A highly-optimized OrderedMultiDict, in dictutils > Two types of PriorityQueue, in queueutils > Chunked and windowed iteration, in iterutils > Recursive data structure iteration and merging, with iterutils.remap > Exponential backoff functionality, including jitter, through iterutils.backoff > A…
