expand_user(path: str) -> Tuple[str, bool, str]

This is similar to os.path.expanduser , but it computes and returns extra information that will be useful if the input was being used in computing completions, and you wish to return the completions with the original '~' instead of its expanded value.

Parameters

path : str

String to be expanded. If no ~ is present, the output is the same as the input.

Returns

newpath : str

Result of ~ expansion in the input path.

tilde_expand : bool

Whether any expansion was performed or not.

tilde_val : str

The value that ~ was replaced with.

Expand ~ -style usernames in strings.

Examples

See :

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
