PyMerge

PyMerge has two variants:

• PyMerge OptionFile witch process the pymerge config file and concatenate the files as specified in the file.
• PyMerge Compiler whitch compile the file that passed as argument and interpreted line by line of the file searching the specific command to execute.

---

PyMerge OptionFile

Read the pymerge file and concatenate the files. Example:

outFile "mi_concat_file_name"
import "file1.txt"
import "file2.txt"

• outFile "<name>" set the output file name
• import "<file>" set to concatenate file to the output file

The tool will follow the documet order.

PyMerge Compiler

The compiler read the file that pass as argument and process it, line by line looking for keywords.

This keywords can be a long the file in a line of comment and it has a specific format: # !cmd <arg>.

Example:

File a.js

function action(msg){
    alert(msg);
}

File b

\\ !outFile "HelloWorld.js"
\\ !import "a.js"

action("Hello World");

HelloWorld.js

function action(msg){
    alert(msg);
}

action("Hello World");

! Only accept one line comments and the most commons comment chars: // and #. For insert a command in multiline comment or in other comments tags:

This hasn't got sense:

/*
    multiline comment
    // !import "file.js"
*/

This is more usefull for lenguage that only have multiline comments

/* # !import "file.sql" */

for HTML
<!-- # !import "header.html" -->

In the copiler the command are similar:

• [// | #] !import "<file name>" - for compile an import the file
• [// | #] !outFile "<file_name>" - to set the final name of the out file
