Description: pyval
        =====
        
        Show the value of a python object via command line.
        
        Examples:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            $ pyval sys.platform
            linux
        
        This is meant to provide a more convenient alternative to:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            python -c "import sys; print(sys.platform)"
        
        More complex expressions are possible too:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            $ pyval math.pi**2
            9.869604401089358
        
            $ pyval 'math.sin(math.pi/4)'
            0.7071067811865475
        
        The output can be influenced using one of the following command line
        arguments:
        
        =========================== ================================================
        ``-r, --repr``              Print ``repr(obj)``
        ``-j, --json``              Print ``json.dumps(obj)``
        ``-p, --pprint``            Print ``pprint(obj)``
        ``-f SPEC, --format SPEC``  Print ``format(obj, SPEC)``
        =========================== ================================================
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        The utility can be installed as follows::
        
            pip install --user eval
        
        It is also possible to simply download ``val.py`` and symlink or move under
        the name of your choice into your PATH, e.g.:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coldfix/pyval/master/val.py \
                -O ~/.local/bin/pyval
        
        Once either of these is done, it can be used within any python enviroment on
        your system, as long as it is accessible in PATH.
        
        By default it uses the currently activated environment. In order to use it
        with unactivated python interpreter, you currently have to call the
        interpreter manually as follows::
        
            /path/to/python ~/.local/bin/pyval 'math.sin(math.sin/3)'
        
        This module is kept deliberately simple and avoids any dependencies not in the
        standard library. This allows running the script in any python environment
        once it is installed on the system, without having to install it in each
        environment individually.
