Accept input from stdin about pynonymizer HOT 5 CLOSED

Sounds like a useful suggestion for automation projects! ✨

Can you give me an example of how the interface might work? I assume you were thinking of piping the sql dump directly from mysqldump or cat'ing a file:

mysqldump | pynonymizer 

I can say with some certainty that this is essentially only going to be available to mysql/postgresql, because of the way the mssql integration works. Not sure if it affects you, but it's worth saying.

Hi, thanks for your fast reply!

Yeah, we're using mysql. So we'd like to ssh mysqldump... ... | panonamizer --input -
That way we don't have to have an un-anonymized data dump on our local computer.

This is such a good idea!!! 🥳
it paves the way for all kinds of stuff i was originally going to have to abstract behind a load of command line options. I need to bake this into more tools!

The interface will be --input - and i've also added --output - for stdout, since what's a pipe without both ends!

I've created PR #17 for this.

This should go out with 1.12.0 after merging.

please test in v1.12.0 and let me know if there's anything i've missed. https://pypi.org/project/pynonymizer/1.12.0/
