unibox provides unified interface for common file operations.

Quick Start

# pip install unibox
import unibox as ub

some common use cases of unibox includes:


loading various file types in the same way:

  • supports json, txt, images, parquet, csv, feather, ....
  • uses appropriate best practices (such as orjson package for json) for speed ups
some_dict = ub.loads("some_file.json")    # json → dict
some_list = ub.loads("some_file.txt")     # txt  → list[str]
some_img  = ub.loads("some_image.jpg")    # webp/jpg/png/..etc → PIL.Image
some_df   = ub.loads("some_data.parquet") # parquet/csv/feather → pd.Dataframe
# .... for more: see uni_loader.py#L40

saving various python data structure in the same way:

  • similar as ub.loads but also for saving files
# mostly similar as above
ub.saves(some_dict, "some_file.json")
ub.saves(some_df, "some_df.parquet")

list s3 or local directories in the same way:

  • default optional params: relative_unix=True, debug_print=True
  • optimized s3 ls speed compared to boto3
files_under_dir = ub.traverses("/home/ubuntu/data")  # list local file

# needs to have `aws configure` pre-configured
files_under_s3  = ub.traverses("s3://dataset-pixiv/resized_1572864") # list s3 files

simplified logger class for easier debug:

  • a logger with functionalities pre-configured
  • includes caller frame info, emoji warnings, datetime, and more
logger = ub.UniLogger()
logger.info("....") 
logger.warn("....")
logger.error("....")

resizing millions of images efficiently:

  • (pre-configured omitted here for simplicity)
  • also able to resize by minimum or maximum of side lengths,
# Initialize resizer
resizer = ub.UniResizer(root_dir, dst_dir,
    target_pixels=int(1024 * 1024 * 1.5),
)

# Resize the images
images_to_resize = resizer.get_resize_jobs()
resizer.execute_resize_jobs(images_to_resize)

Install

install from pypi:

pip install unibox

build from source:

git clone https://github.com/trojblue/unibox

# pip install poetry
poetry install
poetry build
pip install dist/unibox-<version number>.whl

[OLD DOC] Features

The package is designed to be running with python 3.10, but targets 3.8+ for compatibility:

CLI:

  • unibox resize <dir>: resizes a directory of images using either pillow or libvips
    • customizable size / quality / encoding (png / webp / jpeg)
  • unibox copy <dir>: an awscli-like tool for copying files with certain suffix to a new dir, keeping the same directory structure.
    • bypasses windows explorer so it's much faster.
  • unibox move <dir>: like copy, but moves instead

utils:

  • UniLogger: uniformed logger class (logger = unibox.UniLogger(), and use logger.info(...))
  • UniLoader: uniformed data loader class (unibox.loads(<filename>))
  • UniSaver: uniformed data saver class (unibox.saves(<data>, <filename>))
  • UniTraverser: uniformed directory traverser class, with callbacks in multiple stages
  • UniResizer: uniformed image resizer class, with callbacks in multiple stages

callables:

  • unibox.traverses(dir, include, exclude, relative_unix): traverse a directory using specified exclude / include extensions, and return a list of files
  • unibox.loads(filepath): load arbitrary data from a file into suitable formats, with automatic detection of file type
    • supported formats: see UniLoader class implementation
  • unibox.saves(data, filepath): saves arbitrary data to a file, with automatic detection of file type
