Namalizer — smart method name normalizer

It allows you to keep PEP8 naming style, using libraries like Twisted or unittest.

Here is example:

#!/usr/bin/python
import unittest
from namalizer import pep8


class MyTests(unittest.TestCase):
    def set_up(self):
        self.a = 'blah'

    def test_example(self):
        self.assert_equal(self.a, 'blah')


pep8(**locals())
# or
pep8(MyTests)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    unittest.main()

Namalizer creates aliases for method with wrong names. In this case, it will create aliazes in unittest.TestCase for methods like setUp, assertEqual, etc..

Then, it will see that you created method set_up to override base class's functionality and will create alias setUp for this method, this way when unittest will call setUp, you version will be called.

Migration

If you use some library with ugly naming method, this regex will help you to find all places where wrong names are used:

git grep -e '\(\.\|def \)[a-z]\+[A-Z]'
