Custom Python Scripts#

PAPSR#

PAPSR is the Python Autopilot Scripting Runtime and can be used to develop custom autopilot apps in Python.

With PAPSR, you can simply upload a short Python script into your configuration and run it as if it was another builtin app.

autopilot-utils#

The PAPSR runtime includes the autopilot-utils Python package.

This package can also be installed stand-alone, if you want to develop a completely independent custom Python autopilot.

PAPSR Features:

  • Comes with a list of builtin libraries, like requests, pandas, or pypdf.

  • Takes care of setting up the click app.

  • Handles errors in a way that Yaku understands them.

  • Provides flags like --help, --verbose or --no-color automatically.

  • Can be used to write fetchers or evaluators.

Usage example:

Simple example of a custom Python app to fetch data from a URL#
import click
import requests
from loguru import logger

class CLI:
    click_help_text = "Fetch data from a URL"
    version = "0.1"
    click_name = "url-fetcher"
    click_setup = [click.argument("url", required=True)]

    def click_command(url):
        logger.debug(f"Fetching {url}")
        print(requests.get(url).text)
