Requirements
============
- Python: 3.3 or later.
- Tested with 3.7, 3.11
Installation
============
.. code:: bash
$ pip install covertable
Usage
=====
Just import ``covertable`` and call ``make`` function.
.. code-block:: python3
>>> from covertable import make, sorters, criteria
>>> machine_list = ['iphone', 'pixel']
>>> os_list = ['ios', 'android']
>>> browser_list = ['FireFox', 'Chrome', 'Safari']
>>> # list input and output
>>> make(
... [machine_list, os_list, browser_list], # list factors
... length=2, # default: 2
... sorter=sorters.random, # default: sorters.hash
... criterion=criteria.simple, # default: criteria.greedy
... seed=100, # default: ''
... pre_filter=lambda row: not(row[1] == 'android' and row[0] != 'pixel') and not(row[1] == 'ios' and row[0] != 'iphone'), # default: None
... )
[
['pixel', 'android', 'Safari'],
['iphone', 'ios', 'Chrome'],
['iphone', 'ios', 'Safari'],
['pixel', 'android', 'Chrome'],
['pixel', 'android', 'FireFox'],
['iphone', 'ios', 'FireFox']
]
>>> # dict input and output
>>> make(
... {'machine': machine_list, 'os': os_list, 'browser': browser_list}, # dict factors
... length=2, # default: 2
... tolerance=3, # default: 0
... post_filter=lambda row: not(row['os'] == 'android' and row['machine'] != 'pixel') and not(row['os'] == 'ios' and row['machine'] != 'iphone'), # default: None
... )
[
{'machine': 'pixel', 'browser': 'Chrome', 'os': 'android'},
{'machine': 'pixel', 'browser': 'FireFox', 'os': 'android'},
{'machine': 'iphone', 'os': 'ios', 'browser': 'Chrome'},
{'os': 'ios', 'browser': 'FireFox', 'machine': 'iphone'}
]
Options
---------------
``covertable.make`` function has options as keyword argument.
All options are omittable.
length
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Number of factors to be covered. (default: 2)
Obviously the more it increases, the more number of combinations increases.
sorter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Combinations depend on the order of spreading all over the rows.
You can choice a sorter from the following:
:sorters.random:
This makes different combinations everytime. (fastest)
:sorters.hash:
This makes combinations depending on hash of the pair and seed. (default)
- It receives `seed` and `useCache` options.
- `seed` option decides the order of storing from unstored pairs, therefore it outputs the same result every time when number of factors and seed are the same.
- `useCache` option decide if using cache of hash or not. (default: `true`)
- It is around 10% faster than setting `useCache` **off**.
criterion
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
:criteria.simple:
This extracts any pairs that can be stored into the processing row.
:criteria.greedy:
This attempts to make most efficient combinations. (default)
- These combinations are not always shorter than `simple` criterion.
- It receives `tolerance <https://github.com/walkframe/covertable#tolerance>`__ option.
.. note::
Not relevant options will be ignored.
pre_filter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This means a function to filter beforehand.
It receives an argument `row` as `object` type.
When the function returns `False`, the row combination will not be registered.
- If factors type is `Array`, you should specify an index at the subscript like ``row => row[1] < 6``.
- If factors type is `Object`, you should specify a key at the subscript like ``row => row['month'] < 6``
post_filter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This means a function to filter later.
The usage is the same as `preFilter`, only the difference is the timing of the call.
It will delete rows not matched this function at the last.
For this reason, the final test cases may not satisfy the factors coverage.
