I am trying to use a TokenInputTransformer within an IPython extension module, but it seems that there is something wrong with the standard implementation of token transformers with multiline input. Consider the following minimal extension:
from IPython.core.inputtransformer import TokenInputTransformer
@TokenInputTransformer.wrap
def test_transformer(tokens):
return tokens
def load_ipython_extension(ip):
for s in (ip.input_splitter, ip.input_transformer_manager):
s.python_line_transforms.extend([test_transformer()])
print "Test activated"
When I load the extension in IPython 1.1.0 I get a non-handled exception with multiline input:
In [1]: %load_ext test
Test activated
In [2]: abs(
...: 2
...: )
Traceback (most recent call last):

or send an email to the mailing list at [email protected]
You can print a more detailed traceback right now with "%tb", or use "%debug"
to interactively debug it.
Extra-detailed tracebacks for bug-reporting purposes can be enabled via:
%config Application.verbose_crash=True
Am I doing something wrong or is it really an IPython bug?
Kinda late answer but, I was trying to use it in my own extension and just had the same problem. I've solved it by simply removing NL from the list (it's not the same as NEWLINE token which end statement), NL token only appears inside [], (), {} so it should be safely removable.
from tokenize import NL
@TokenInputTransformer.wrap
def mat_transformer(tokens):
tokens = list(filter(lambda t: t.type != NL, tokens))
return tokens
If you are looking for full example, I've posted my goofy code there: https://github.com/Quinzel/pymat
