""" Helper for looping over sequences, particular in templates. Often in a loop in a template it's handy to know what's next up, previously up, if this is the first or last item in the sequence, etc. These can be awkward to manage in a normal Python loop, but using the looper you can get a better sense of the context. Use like:: >>> for loop, item in looper(['a', 'b', 'c']): ... print("%s %s" % (loop.number, item)) ... if not loop.last: ... print('---') 1 a --- 2 b --- 3 c """ __all__ = ['looper'] import six class looper(object): """ Helper for looping (particularly in templates) Use this like:: for loop, item in looper(seq): if loop.first: ...
