I missed the |> pipe operator from Elixir so I created a simple function decorator (~ 50 lines of code) that reinterprets the >> Python right shift operator as a very Elixir-like pipe at compile time using the ast library and compile/exec:

from pipeop import pipes

def add3(a, b, c):
    return a + b + c

def times(a, b):
    return a * b

@pipes
def calc()
    print 1 >> add3(2, 3) >> times(4)  # prints 24

All it's doing is rewriting a >> b(...) as b(a, ...).
