sometimes
Stop being so black and white. Mix things up a bit and execute code sometimes. This is a Python port of the Ruby sometimes gem.
Installation
You can install via pip:
$ pip install sometimes
Or by cloning from Github:
$ git clone git@github.com:aaronbassett/sometimes.git $ cd sometimes $ python setup.py install
Usage
Say something every other time:
from sometimes import sometimes
@sometimes
def hello():
print "Hey, you are awesome. You really are." # executes warm fuzzies 50% of the time
Have a 50% chance of saying something:
from sometimes import sometimesish
@sometimesish
def hello():
print "Hey, you are awesome. You really are."
Maybe you want to do something several times, but not always the exact same number of times:
from sometimes import times
@times(4,10)
def pick_nose():
pass
Maybe you want to remind someone of something, but not toooo often (It gets annoying!):
from sometimes import percent_of_the_time
@percent_of_the_time(15)
def naughty():
print "Howdy, Don't forget to register!" # be annoying, but only 15% of the time
@percent_of_the_time(33)
def be_very_polite():
pass
Share a rare moment with your user:
from sometimes import rarely
@rarely()
def spam():
print "How would you like some spammy spam spam!" # be really annoying about 5% of the time
Do something most of the time:
from sometimes import mostly
@mostly()
def be_awesome():
print "Want to see something really cool?" # Be awesome about 95% of the time
Hold on a minute
Why does it have @sometimes and @sometimesish? I wanted sometimes to behave as described
by the gem docs, not how it operates in the gem. I included sometimesish if anyone wanted the
gem style functionality.
