Random python utils I'm making for my own use. Also using this to apply some basic OOP

pip install wise-py-utils

>>> from wise.<util_file> import <UtilClass>

# Example:
>>> from wise.datetimeutils import GetDay

Enter the specific directory to get more about each utility.

Returns a string containing the weekday of the current or specified date.

The python datetime module is very versatile however as shown in this stackoverflow answer. Getting a date's weekday as a string is not so simple. Python's datetime. datetime.weekday() returns an integer, 0 for Monday ... ... and 6 for Sunday.

This module allows me to get a string containing the date (current or otherwise specified) with a single method.

Simply get the current day of the week

today = GetDay()
print(today.get_weekday())

Output:
'Saturday'

Get the day of a specified date

from datetime import datetime
today = GetDay(datetime(2017, 2, 2))
print(today.get_weekday())

Output:
'Thursday'

Get the day based on the weekday number using the `get_weekday_from_number() classmethod

>>> import datetime
>>> number = datetime.datetime.today().weekday()
>>> print(number)
1
>>> print(GetDay.get_weekday_from_number(number))
'Tuesday'

Often when hitting enter, I accidentally hit a key next to it. Often the resulting input can end up looking like this.

characters = ["/", "'" "\" "]"]
input = "<regular input> <random-character><enter>"

This library is designed to remove trailing special characters from strings and integers and return what the user actually mean to enter.

Scans a specified file for a regex or string pattern and returns a list of all the results`
