Module Usage
CLI Usage
Available Cowacters
pip install cowpyCowsay, in Python, makes pies. One file, easily embedded into your app. It's directly executable and can be used on the CLI much like the original Cowsay. Or it can be used as a Python module that is imported into a Python program. It also has the option to copy itself so you can easily distribute it embedded into your own package.
#!/usr/bin/env python
# encoding: utf-8
from cowpy import cow
# Create a Cow
cheese = cow.Moose()
# Get a cowsay message by milking the cow
msg = cheese.milk("My witty mesage")
# do something with the message
print(msg)
# Create a Cow with a thought bubble
cheese = cow.Moose(thoughts=True)
msg = cheese.milk("My witty mesage, with thought")
print(msg)
# Create a Cow with a tongue
cheese = cow.Moose(tongue=True)
msg = cheese.milk("My witty mesage, with tongue")
print(msg)
# Create a Cow with dead eyes
cheese = cow.Moose(eyes='dead')
msg = cheese.milk("my witty mesage, i'm dead")
print(msg)
# Get a cow by name
cow_cls = cow.get_cow('moose')
cheese = cow_cls()
msg = cheese.milk("Cow by name is moose")
print(msg)
# Create a Cow with a thought bubble, a tongue, and dead eyes
cheese = cow.Moose(thoughts=True, tongue=True, eyes='dead')
msg = cheese.milk("My witty mesage with several attributes")
print(msg)
# Create a random cow with a message
msg = cow.milk_random_cow("A random message for fun")
print(msg)
# all the eye options
