📄 Description

Plumbum allows you to run shell commands (and pipe them) in a very intuitive and powerful way.

It has almost three times more stars on github than delegator.py, so I think it deserves metioning.

An example:

>>> chain = ls["-a"] | grep["-v", "\\.py"] | wc["-l"]
>>> print chain
/bin/ls -a | /bin/grep -v '\.py' | /usr/bin/wc -l
>>> chain()
u'13\n'

What is this Python project?

Plumbum has very flexible and intuitive way of running shell commands. You can transform them to functions, pipe them etc.

What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones?

Much more clear syntax than popen and subprocess.
More pythonic way of piping commands than delegator.py and sarge
More shell style syntax than sh.
It seems to be developed a bit more actively than sh.
Seamless remote program execution (i.e. ssh)
Less non-obvious magic than in sh.
