r""" Loading and saving sessions and listing all variables
EXAMPLES:
We reset the current session, then define a rational number ``2/3``, and verify that it is listed as a newly defined variable::
sage: reset() sage: w = 2/3; w 2/3 sage: show_identifiers() ['w']
We next save this session. We are using a file in ``SAGE_TMP``. We do this *for testing* only --- please do not do this, when you want to save your session permanently, since ``SAGE_TMP`` will be removed when leaving Sage!
::
sage: save_session(os.path.join(SAGE_TMP, 'session'))
This saves a dictionary with ``w`` as one of the keys::
sage: z = load(os.path.join(SAGE_TMP, 'session')) sage: list(z) ['w'] sage: z['w'] 2/3
Next we reset the session, verify this, and load the session back.::
sage: reset() sage: show_identifiers() [] sage: load_session(os.path.join(SAGE_TMP, 'session'))
Indeed ``w`` is now defined again.::
sage: show_identifiers() ['w'] sage: w 2/3
It is not needed to clean up the file created in the above code, since it resides in the directory ``SAGE_TMP``.

def init(state=None): """ Initialize some dictionaries needed by the :func:`show_identifiers`, :func:`save_session`, and :func:`load_session` functions.
INPUT:
- ``state`` -- a dictionary or ``None``; if ``None`` the :func:`locals()` of the caller is used.
EXAMPLES::
sage: reset() sage: w = 10 sage: show_identifiers() ['w']
When we call :func:`init()` below it reinitializes the internal table, so the ``w`` we just defined doesn't count as a new identifier::
sage: sage.misc.session.init() sage: show_identifiers() [] """ global state_at_init # Make a *copy* of the state dict, since it is mutable
def _is_new_var(x, v, hidden): """ Return whether or not the variable named ``x`` with value ``v`` is considered newly defined in the current session.
INPUT:
- ``x`` -- string
- ``v`` -- object
- ``hidden`` -- bool; if ``True``, always return ``False`` on variables that start with ``_``)
OUTPUT:
A bool
EXAMPLES:
We reset the session, then check whether the builtin factor function is newly defined (it isn't)::
sage: reset() sage: sage.misc.session._is_new_var('factor', factor, True) False
We then redefine factor, and find that it is newly defined::
sage: factor = 10 sage: sage.misc.session._is_new_var('factor', factor, True) True
We define a new variable ``'blue'``, and test::
sage: blue = 10 sage: sage.misc.session._is_new_var('blue', blue, True) True sage: sage.misc.session._is_new_var('_blue', blue, True) True sage: sage.misc.session._is_new_var('_blue', blue, False) False """ # We ignore all _ variable names unless hidden is True # If a variable names was not there at init time then it is # definitely new. # A variable could also be new even if it was there at init, say if # its value changed.
def show_identifiers(hidden=False): r""" Returns a list of all variable names that have been defined during this session. By default, this returns only those identifiers that don't start with an underscore.
INPUT:
- ``hidden`` -- bool (Default: ``False``); If ``True``, also return identifiers that start with an underscore.
OUTPUT:
A list of variable names
EXAMPLES:
We reset the state of all variables, and see that none are defined::
sage: reset() sage: show_identifiers() []
We then define two variables, one which overwrites the default factor function; both are shown by :func:`show_identifiers()`::
sage: a = 10 sage: factor = 20 sage: show_identifiers() ['a', 'factor']
To get the actual value of a variable from the list, use the :func:`globals()` function.::
sage: globals()['factor'] 20
By default :func:`show_identifiers()` only returns variables that don't start with an underscore. There is an option hidden that allows one to list those as well::
sage: _hello = 10 sage: show_identifiers() ['a', 'factor'] sage: '_hello' in show_identifiers(hidden=True) True
Many of the hidden variables are part of the IPython command history, at least in command line mode.::
sage: show_identifiers(hidden=True) # random output ['__', '_i', '_6', '_4', '_3', '_1', '_ii', '__doc__', '__builtins__', '___', '_9', '__name__', '_', 'a', '_i12', '_i14', 'factor', '__file__', '_hello', '_i13', '_i11', '_i10', '_i15', '_i5', '_13', '_10', '_iii', '_i9', '_i8', '_i7', '_i6', '_i4', '_i3', '_i2', '_i1', '_init_cmdline', '_14'] """
def save_session(name='sage_session', verbose=False): r""" Save all variables that can be saved to the given filename. The variables will be saved to a dictionary, which can be loaded using ``load(name)`` or :func:`load_session`.
.. NOTE::
1. Function and anything else that can't be pickled is not saved. This failure is silent unless you set ``verbose=True``.
2. In the Sage notebook the session is saved both to the current working cell and to the ``DATA`` directory.
3. One can still make sessions that can't be reloaded. E.g., define a class with::
class Foo: pass
and make an instance with::
f = Foo()
Then :func:`save_session` followed by ``quit`` and :func:`load_session` fails. I doubt there is any good way to deal with this. Fortunately, one can simply re-evaluate the code to define ``Foo``, and suddenly :func:`load_session` works fine.
INPUT:
- ``name`` -- string (default: 'sage_session') name of ``sobj`` to save the session to.
- ``verbose`` -- bool (default: ``False``) if ``True``, print info about why certain variables can't be saved.
OUTPUT:
- Creates a file and returns silently.
EXAMPLES:
For testing, we use a temporary file that will be removed as soon as Sage is left. Of course, for permanently saving your session, you should choose a permanent file.
::
sage: a = 5 sage: tmp_f = tmp_filename() sage: save_session(tmp_f) sage: del a sage: load_session(tmp_f) sage: print(a) 5
We illustrate what happens when one of the variables is a function::
sage: f = lambda x : x^2 sage: save_session(tmp_f) sage: save_session(tmp_f, verbose=True) Saving... Not saving f: f is a function, method, class or type ...
Something similar happens for cython-defined functions::
sage: g = cython_lambda('double x', 'x*x + 1.5') sage: save_session(tmp_f, verbose=True) Saving... Not saving g: g is a function, method, class or type ... """ # This dict D will contain the session -- as a dict -- that we will save to disk. # We iterate only over the new variables that were defined in this # session, since those are the only ones we will save.
# We attempt to pickle *and* unpickle every variable to # make *certain* that we can pickled D at the end below. # This seems wasteful, but it guarantees (I hope) that # D itself can be pickled and unpickled (assuming something # doesn't change in the Sage library itself). Otherwise, # we could easily pickle whole sessions but get something # not at all useful. pass # Also save D to the data directory if we're using the notebook. # This is broken for now. Simply print some information to the user # if the user does not save it in the DATA directory. # save(D, '../../data/' + name) if name.find('.sagenb/') <= 0 or name.find('/data/') <= 0: print("To store the session in a common directory that the " "entire worksheet can access, save it using the command:\n" "save_session(DATA + '{0}')\n" "You can later load it by running in any cell:\n" "load_session(DATA + '{0}')".format(name.rsplit('/', 1)[-1]))
def load_session(name='sage_session', verbose=False): r""" Load a saved session.
This merges in all variables from a previously saved session. It does not clear out the variables in the current sessions, unless they are overwritten. You can thus merge multiple sessions, and don't necessarily loose all your current work when you use this command.
.. NOTE::
In the Sage notebook the session name is searched for both in the current working cell and the ``DATA`` directory.
EXAMPLES::
sage: a = 5 sage: f = lambda x: x^2

::
sage: tmp_f = tmp_filename() sage: save_session(tmp_f) sage: del a; del f sage: load_session(tmp_f) sage: print(a) 5
Note that ``f`` does not come back, since it is a function, hence couldn't be saved::
sage: print(f) Traceback (most recent call last): ... NameError: name 'f' is not defined """
