rendercv.cli.printer

The rendercv.cli.printer module contains all the functions and classes that are used to print nice-looking messages to the terminal.

LiveProgressReporter

Bases: Live

This class is a wrapper around rich.live.Live that provides the live progress reporting functionality.

Parameters:

  • number_of_steps (int) –

    The number of steps to be finished.

  • end_message (str, default: 'Your CV is rendered!' ) –

    The message to be printed when the progress is finished. Defaults to "Your CV is rendered!".

handle_and_print_raised_exceptions_without_exit(function)

Return a wrapper function that handles exceptions. It does not exit the program after an exception is raised. It just prints the error message and continues the execution.

A decorator in Python is a syntactic convenience that allows a Python to interpret the code below:

@handle_exceptions
def my_function():
    pass

as

my_function = handle_exceptions(my_function)

which means that the function my_function is modified by the handle_exceptions.

Parameters:

  • function (Callable) –

    The function to be wrapped.

Returns:

  • Callable

    The wrapped function.

handle_and_print_raised_exceptions(function)

Return a wrapper function that handles exceptions. It exits the program after an exception is raised.

A decorator in Python is a syntactic convenience that allows a Python to interpret the code below:

@handle_exceptions
def my_function():
    pass

as

my_function = handle_exceptions(my_function)

which means that the function my_function is modified by the handle_exceptions.

Parameters:

  • function (Callable) –

    The function to be wrapped.

Returns:

  • Callable

    The wrapped function.
