Python refactoring made easy in Sublime Text 3

Introduction

This plugin is designed to help rope users to refactor python codes. It generates a temporary rope script, which refactors your codes, and then it reloads the refactored codes in Sublime Text. This is a quick and dirty hack and may not work well for very complex codes.

Refactor Methods Implemented

1. Create a rope project (Ctrl+Shift+N): You must create the rope project first before performing any following refactoring actions.
2. Undo last refactoring action (Ctrl+Shift+Z)
3. Redo last refactoring action (Ctrl+Shift+Y)
4. Rename a field
5. Rename a module
6. Transform a module to package with the same name
7. Change the signiture of a function/method
8. Extract method
9. Extract variable
10. Inline: Inline occurrences of a method/variable/parameter
11. Change a local variable to field
12. Introduce parameter to a function
13. Introduce constructor factory (select a class name to perform the refactoring)
14. Encapsulate field: Generate a getter/setter for a field and changes its occurrences to use them.
15. Use function: Try to use a function whenever possible
16. Move across module
17. Move attribute
18. Transform function to method object
19. Restructure
