PyStringLib

PyStringLib — a C++ library implementing Python-like string utilities.

Overview

PyStringLib provides a set of string utilities inspired by Python's string API, implemented in modern C++ for performance and embeddability. This repo is primarily C++.

Contents

• Source code (src/)
• Headers (include/)
• CMake configuration (CMakeLists.txt)
• Examples (examples/) and tests (tests/) if present

Requirements

• C++17-compatible compiler (g++, clang, MSVC)
• CMake 3.10+
• Git
• Optional: Conan/vcpkg for dependency management

Build (CMake — exact steps)

1. Clone: git clone https://github.com/Pouyazadmehr83/PyStringLib.git cd PyStringLib

2. Create build directory and configure: mkdir build cd build cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

3. Build: cmake --build . --config Release

4. (Optional) Run tests: ctest --output-on-failure

Build with g++ (single-file example)

g++ -std=c++17 -O2 -Iinclude -o example examples/example.cpp src/pystringlib.cpp

Adjust file names to the actual source structure.

Usage

• Link the compiled library to your project or include header-only utilities.
• Example (pseudo): #include "pystringlib/pystring.h" using namespace pystring; auto s = pystring::strip(" hello ");

Packaging & Installation

• Optionally create a package with CPack or provide install targets via CMake: cmake --install . --prefix /usr/local

Contributing

• Follow C++17 idioms, add tests for new behavior, and provide clear API documentation.
• Raise PRs with test coverage and examples.
