Python ``yield from`` as an Iterator
====================================
A robust implementation of ``yield from`` behavior. Good for transpilers,
backpilers, and code that needs to be portable to minimal or old Pythons.
This implementation avoids the complexity and overheads of typical
``yield from`` backports - the tradeoff is that it is less obvious
and does not resemble ``yield from`` syntax.
Versioning
----------
This library's version numbers follow the `SemVer 2.0.0
specification <https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html>`_.
Installation
------------
::
pip install yield-from-as-an-iterator
Usage
-----
Import ``yield_from``:
.. code:: python
from yieldfrom import yield_from
Replace ``yield from ...`` with:
.. code:: python
for value, handle_send, handle_throw in yield_from(...):
sent = None
try:
sent = yield value
except:
if not handle_throw(*sys.exc_info()):
raise
handle_send(sent)
Replace ``result = yield from ...`` with:
.. code:: python
wrapper = yield_from(...)
for value, handle_send, handle_throw in wrapper:
sent = None
try:
sent = yield value
except:
if not handle_throw(*sys.exc_info()):
raise
handle_send(sent)
result = wrapper.result
Portability
-----------
Portable to all releases of Python 3, and releases
of Python 2 starting with 2.6.
On older or more minimal Pythons, the code will still import, so
long as the right variant of the module file was chosen (because
Python below 2.6 did not have ``except ... as ...`` syntax), and
should work so long as the following are built-in or polyfilled:
1. The ``next`` function (just the one-argument form)
(added in Python 2.6).
2. The ``GeneratorExit`` exception (added in Python 2.5).
3. The ``iter`` function (just the one-argument form)
(added in Python 2.2).
4. The ``StopIteration`` exception (added in Python 2.2).
But as you go lower you will run into bigger problems:
* generators only gained the ability to move data bidirectionally,
and the ``.send`` and ``.throw`` methods to do so, in Python 2.5,
* generators and ``yield`` were only added in Python 2.2 (and
needed a ``from __future__ import generators`` until 2.3), and
* the iterator protocol was only added in Python 2.2.
But, so long as you have objects which implement those interfaces,
this module should help you get ``yield from`` behavior with them.
