qav is a Python library for console-based question and answering, with the ability to validate input.
It provides question sets to group related questions. Questions can also have subordinate Questions underneath them. Answers to those questions can be validated based on a simple, static piece of information provided by you. Answers may also be validated dynamically based on the information provided in previous questions.
>>> from qav.questions import Question
>>> from qav.validators import ListValidator
>>> q = Question('How old am I? ', 'age', ListValidator(['20', '35', '40']))
>>> q.ask()
Please select from the following choices:
[0] - 20
[1] - 35
[2] - 40
How old am I? : 0
>>> q.answer()
# returns => {'age': '20'}
$ pip install qav
This library has been tested to support:
- Python 3.6
It most likely will still run on Python 2.7, but official support has been dropped.
