brew-tools - Tools for the homebrewer's command line

[svenito]

A little while back I posted this in /r/homebrewing and thought I would also share here.

I made a little command line tool in Python 3 for homebrewers who want quick access to some common calculators via the commandline. Understandably not for the majority of people, but there are a few out there (like myself) that prefer the simplicity and quickness of a command line interface.

So here's brew-tools for you to try out. Currently at version 0.0.7 and fully open source and free

Docs: https://brew-tools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/brew-tools
Github: https://github.com/Svenito/brew-tools

Current available calculators are:

• ABV
  
• Keg priming
  
• Priming sugar
  
• Quick infusion
  
• Adjust gravity with dme
  
• Apparent and Real attenuation
  
• Final gravity from a given attenuation percentage

Can be installed via pip or from the repository directly.

Feedback and feature suggestions welcomed, as are contributions of any kind.

Thanks for taking a look.

Thanks for sharing. I've been making my own calculators in Python as well. Originally I did them as a way of learning TDD but got carried away and wrote a bunch of functions without testing them. It's actually quite a good exercise for those who are into homebrewing and want to learn some python.

Nice, thanks for sharing! I'm new to brewing but been doing plenty of Python in my day-job so will certainly check this out :)
