Goulash as a library

Apart from command-line usage, goulash is also a toolbox/utility module. Random examples:

• The goulash._os.makedirs has mkdir -p dir_name functionality (almost-but-not-quite what os.makedirs does ¹)
• The goulash.reflect module has "import python object from string" functionality without all the hassle of __import__ or importlib ².
• How about that missing @classproperty decorator? ³

The entire library will probably never be documented, but this page will just cover some of the highlights.n a lot of cases, I've just adapted

Of course the goulash command-line utilities can also be used componentwise from the library. Or look over here! It's a quick and dirty HTTP fileserver that's actually multithreaded.

But it pretty much goes on like this forever..

Decorator patterns

>>> from tunl import api
>>> api.list_tunnels()
{'mongo': {'local_port': 27000,
  'remote_host': 'host',
  'remote_port': 27017,
  'status': 'down',
  'user': 'admin'},
 'jenkins': {'key': '~/.ssh/key.pem',
  'local_port': 8081,
  'remote_host': 'jenkins',
  'remote_port': 8080,
  'status': 'down',
  'user': 'ubuntu'}}
>>> start_success = api.start_tunnel('mongo')
tunl: ssh  -M -S /home/vagrant/.tunl/mongo -fnNT -L 27000:localhost:27017 admin@host
>>> print start_success
True
