Help With Bytes On Python 3
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The official stance of :mod:`natsort` is to not support `bytes` for
sorting; there is just too much that can go wrong when trying to automate
conversion between `bytes` and `str`. But rather than completely give up
on `bytes`, :mod:`natsort` provides three functions that make it easy to
quickly decode `bytes` to `str` so that sorting is possible.
.. autofunction:: decoder
.. autofunction:: as_ascii
.. autofunction:: as_utf8
.. _function_help:
Help With Creating Function Keys
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If you need to create a complicated *key* argument to (for example)
:func:`natsorted` that is actually multiple functions called one after the
other, the following function can help you easily perform this action. It is
used internally to :mod:`natsort`, and has been exposed publicly for
the convenience of the user.
.. autofunction:: chain_functions
If you need to be able to search your input for numbers using the same
definition as :mod:`natsort`, you can do so using the following function.
Given your chosen algorithm (selected using the :class:`~natsort.ns` enum),
the corresponding regular expression to locate numbers will be returned.
.. autofunction:: numeric_regex_chooser
Help With Type Hinting
++++++++++++++++++++++
If you need to explicitly specify the types that natsort accepts or returns
in your code, the following types have been exposed for your convenience.
+--------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type | Purpose |
+================================+========================================================================================+
|:attr:`natsort.NatsortKeyType` | Returned by :func:`natsort.natsort_keygen`, and type of :attr:`natsort.natsort_key` |
+--------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|:attr:`natsort.OSSortKeyType` | Returned by :func:`natsort.os_sort_keygen`, and type of :attr:`natsort.os_sort_key` |
+--------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|:attr:`natsort.KeyType` | Type of `key` argument to :func:`natsort.natsorted` and :func:`natsort.natsort_keygen` |
+--------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|:attr:`natsort.NatsortInType` | The input type of :attr:`natsort.NatsortKeyType` |
+--------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|:attr:`natsort.NatsortOutType` | The output type of :attr:`natsort.NatsortKeyType` |
+--------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
