'New' Python modules of 2015
Wow, there are some great new tools to explore.  Thanks!<p>Some of the new libraries I'm using this year that I've found really handy include:<p>Odo - <a href="http://odo.readthedocs.org/en/latest/" rel="nofollow">http://odo.readthedocs.org/en/latest/</a>  It is ridiculously handy for converting data from one format to another - especially for transforming a table from a database or csv into a DataFrame and back.<p>Arrow - Makes for quick datetime processing. - <a href="http://crsmithdev.com/arrow/" rel="nofollow">http://crsmithdev.com/arrow/</a><p>Xlsxwriter - <a href="http://xlsxwriter.readthedocs.org" rel="nofollow">http://xlsxwriter.readthedocs.org</a> - I'm building beautiful reports, with charts, using this tool.  As someone who moves data around a lot, but has to work with less technical business and analyst folks, this is becoming my goto for handing them some data to play with.<p>Blessings - <a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/blessings" rel="nofollow">https://pypi.python.org/pypi/blessings</a> - as I get older staring at simple black and white text on the screen seems to be getting harder.  Putting a little color and flare in my command line interfaces cheers me up even if  it doesn't do much in the way of actually getting the job done.<p>Lastly, switching from curl to httpie was a huge help in working with API's of all sorts.  It solved a problem I didn't even know I had. <a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/httpie" rel="nofollow">https://pypi.python.org/pypi/httpie</a>
