 > Write *assignment expressions* in Python 3.8 flavour, and let `walrus` worry about back-port issues :beer:

&emsp; Since [PEP 572](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0572/), Python introduced *assignment expressions*
syntax in version __3.8__. For those who wish to use *assignment expressions* in their code, `walrus` provides an
intelligent, yet imperfect, solution of a **backport compiler** by replacing *assignment expressions* syntax with
old-fashioned assignment-then-conditional syntax, which guarantees you to always write *assignment expressions* in
Python 3.8 flavour then compile for compatibility later.

## Installation

> Note that `walrus` only supports Python versions __since 3.3__ 🐍

&emsp; For macOS users, `walrus` is now available through [Homebrew](https://brew.sh):

```sh
brew tap jarryshaw/tap
brew install walrus
# or simply, a one-liner
brew install jarryshaw/tap/walrus
```

&emsp; Simply run the following to install the current version from PyPI:

```sh
pip install python-walrus
```

&emsp; Or install the latest version from the git repository:

```sh
git clone https://github.com/JarryShaw/walrus.git
cd walrus
pip install -e .
# and to update at any time
git pull
```

## Basic Usage

### CLI

&emsp; It is fairly straightforward to use `walrus`:

 > context in `${...}` changes dynamically according to runtime environment

```man
usage: walrus [options] <python source files and folders...>

Back-port compiler for Python 3.8 assignment expressions.

positional arguments:
  SOURCE                python source files and folders to be converted (${CWD})

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -V, --version         show program's version number and exit
  -q, --quiet           run in quiet mode

archive options:
  duplicate original files in case there's any issue

  -na, --no-archive     do not archive original files
  -p PATH, --archive-path PATH
                        path to archive original files (${CWD}/archive)

convert options:
  compatibility configuration for none-unicode files

  -c CODING, --encoding CODING
                        encoding to open source files (${LOCALE_ENCODING})
  -v VERSION, --python VERSION
                        convert against Python version (${LATEST_VERSION})
  -s SEP, --linesep SEP
                        line separator to process source files (${OS_LINESEP})
  -nl, --no-linting     do not lint converted codes
  -t INDENT, --tabsize INDENT
                        indentation tab size (4)
```

&emsp; `walrus` will read then convert all *assignment expressions* syntax in every Python
file under this path. In case there might be some problems with the conversion, `walrus` will
duplicate all original files it is to modify into `archive` directory ahead of the process,
if `-n` not set.

&emsp; Besides, to keep consistency of API to users, `walrus` ships with a *decorator* for
such functions to check assignment expressions at runtime, if `-nl` not set.

## Developer Reference

### Environments

`walrus` currently supports three environment arguments:

- `WALRUS_QUIET` -- run in quiet mode (same as `--quiet` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_VERSION` -- convert against Python version (same as `--python` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_ENCODING` -- encoding to open source files (same as `--encoding` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_LINESEP` -- line separator to process source files (same as `--linesep` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_LINTING` -- lint converted codes (same as `--linting` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_TABSIZE` -- indentation tab size (same as `--tabsize` option in CLI)

### APIs

#### `walrus` -- wrapper works for conversion

```python
walrus(filename)
```

Args:

- `filename` -- `str`, file to be converted

Envs:

- `WALRUS_QUIET` -- run in quiet mode (same as `--quiet` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_ENCODING` -- encoding to open source files (same as `--encoding` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_VERSION`-- convert against Python version (same as `--python` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_LINESEP` -- line separator to process source files (same as `--linesep` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_LINTING` -- lint converted codes (same as `--linting` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_TABSIZE` -- indentation tab size (same as `--tabsize` option in CLI)

Raises:

- `ConvertError `-- when `parso.ParserSyntaxError` raised

#### `convert` -- the main conversion process

```python
convert(string, source='<unknown>')
```

Args:

- `string` -- `str`, context to be converted
- `source` -- `str`, source of the context

Envs:

- `WALRUS_VERSION`-- convert against Python version (same as `--python` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_LINESEP` -- line separator to process source files (same as `--linesep` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_LINTING` -- lint converted codes (same as `--linting` option in CLI)
- `WALRUS_TABSIZE` -- indentation tab size (same as `--tabsize` option in CLI)

Returns:

- `str` -- converted string

Raises:

- `ConvertError `-- when `parso.ParserSyntaxError` raised

#### Internal exceptions

```python
class ConvertError(SyntaxError):
    """Parso syntax error."""
```

```python
class ContextError(RuntimeError):
    """Missing conversion context."""
```

```python
class EnvironError(EnvironmentError):
    """Invalid environment."""
```
