    This is an unmodified selection of code I wrote for and under contract to AT&T, so AT&T holds all copyright.
AT&T released it to the public under the terms of the Apache 2.0 License (as described in license headers in the source code) as part of a larger body of work.
I retrieved these copies from their public repositories on 1/9/2018 after I was no longer under contract to them.
I am hosting it here in compliance with the terms of their license.
The links below point to AT&T's public repositories.

rgwa_client.py, a simplistic Requests-based wrapper for the Ceph RADOS Object Gateway Admin Operations API.
in_temp_dir.py, a little context manager to make it easy to perform some function within a temporary directory and clean up afterward.
regex_dispatch.py, a mechanism that dispatches among a set of handler functions based on a regular expression match.
envbool.py, a little mechanism to sensibly parse environment variables intended to be used as boolean Python values.
keyawaredefaultdict.py, a small tweak to defaultdict that passes the requested key to the default-value factory, so values may be based on keys.

The intent for this repository is to provide easy-to-browse examples of general-purpose open-source code I have written, as navigating to each of these locations may be difficult (or may change in the future.)
Sometime in the future, I might consider packaging some of this code for standalone use.
