Jedi
|
||||||
|
============================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
** This is just a work-in-progress README. The auto-completion is not yet
|
||||||
|
finished (and the README neither :-)) **
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Jedi is an autocompletion tool for Python. It should always work as good as
|
||||||
|
possible. It should provide completion wherever it is possible.
|
||||||
|
In a later stage of the project, it should also provide renaming.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Jedi uses a very simple interface to connect with IDE's. As an example, there
|
||||||
|
is a VIM implementation, which uses Jedi's autocompletion. However, I encourage
|
||||||
|
you to use Jedi in your IDEs. If there is some problem with licensing, just
|
||||||
|
contact me.

Support
|
||||||
|
-------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There is support for Python 2/3 (3 untested TODO).
|
||||||
|
Jedi supports many of the widely used Python features:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- builtin functions/classes support
|
||||||
|
- complex module / function / class structures
|
||||||
|
- multiple
|
||||||
|
- tuple assignments / array indexing / dictionary indexing
|
||||||
|
- exceptions / with-statement /
|
||||||
|
- \*args / \*\*args
|
||||||
|
- decorators
|
||||||
|
- generators (yield statement)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Caveats
|
||||||
|
-------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This framework should work for both Python 2/3. However, some things where not
|
||||||
|
nice in Python 2. To keep things simple, some things have been held back:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Classes: Always Python 3, therefore all classes inherit from `object`.
|
||||||
|
- Generators: No `next` method. The `__next__` method is there instead.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Syntax Errors and other strange stuff, that is defined differently in the
|
||||||
|
Python language, may lead to undefined behaviour of the completion. If you
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Importing `numpy` can be quite slow sometimes, as well as loading the builtins
|
||||||
|
the first time. If you want to speed it up, you could write import hooks in
|
||||||
|
jedi, which preload this stuff. However, once loaded, this is not a problem
|
||||||
|
anymore.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
From time to time Jedi might feel terribly slow. This behaviour is known, when
|
||||||
|
the process was swapped to disk.
