Pads a sequence out to n elements,
filling in with a default value if it is not long enough.
If the input sequence is longer than n, raises ValueError.
Details, details: This returns a new list; it does not extend the original sequence. The new list contains the values of the original sequence, not copies.Return the path to a sibling of a file in the filesystem.
This is useful in conjunction with the special __file__ attribute that Python provides for modules, so modules can load associated resource files.Obtain a password by prompting or from stdin.
If stdin is a terminal, prompt for a new password, and confirm (if
confirm
is true) by asking again to make sure the user typed
the same thing, as keystrokes will not be echoed.
forceTTY
is not true, read
in a line and use it as the password, less the trailing newline, if any.
If forceTTY
is true, attempt to open a tty and prompt for the
password using it. Raise a RuntimeError if this is not possible.
Returns | str
|
>> searchupwards('.', ['foo.txt'], ['bar', 'bam'])If not found, return None
Do nothing.
Underlying platform support require to manipulate groups is missing.Initializes the group access list.
This is done by reading the group database /etc/group and using all
groups of which uid
is a member. The additional group
primaryGid
is also added to the list.
NGROUPS
,
arbitrary groups will be silently discarded to bring the number below that
limit.
Parameters | uid | The UID for which to look up group information.
(type: int
) |
primaryGid | If provided, an additional GID to include when setting the groups.
(type: int or NoneType
) |
Overwrite g
's name and docstring with values from
f
. Update g
's instance dictionary with
f
's.
mergeFunctionMetadata
will create a new function. In later versions of Python, g
will be mutated and returned.
Returns | A function that has g 's behavior and metadata merged from
f .
|
Parameters | mname | The name to convert to a label. This must be a string which could be
used as a Python identifier. Strings which do not take this form will
result in unpredictable behavior.
(type: str
) |
Returns | (type: str
) |
Parameters | uid | A string giving the base-ten representation of a UID or the name of a
user which can be converted to a UID via pwd.getpwnam .
(type: str
) |
Returns | The integer UID corresponding to the given string.
(type: int
) | |
Raises | ValueError | If the user name is supplied and pwd is not available.
|
Parameters | uid | A string giving the base-ten representation of a GID or the name of a
group which can be converted to a GID via grp.getgrnam .
(type: str
) |
Returns | The integer GID corresponding to the given string.
(type: int
) | |
Raises | ValueError | If the group name is supplied and grp is not available.
