Pipes

If PicleConfig class pipe is set, the | token becomes valid and starts a new “segment”. The next segment is parsed using the pipe model. pipe can be:

"self"                  re-use the current model as the pipe model
"some.module.Model"     import a model by string
SomeModelClass          use a model class directly

Example - enable pipe functions:

from pydantic import BaseModel
from picle.models import PipeFunctionsModel, Outputters


class ShellModel(BaseModel):
    class PicleConfig:
        prompt = "picle#"
        intro = "PICLE Sample app"
        pipe = PipeFunctionsModel

!!! note processors run on the first command segment only (before any | segments). They do not apply to subsequent pipe segments. If you want to post-process the output of a pipe segment, use an outputter or a pipe function in that segment.
