simpletraits Description

simpletraits is a lightweight library that makes creation of Python class less verbose.UsageI'm constantly repeating attributes names for simple python classes. So instead of thisclass User(object): def __init__(self, login, name, last_name, email=None): self.login = login self.name = name self.last_name = last_name self.email = emailI prefere to do thisfrom simpletraits import baseclassclass User(baseclass): _arg = ('login', 'name', 'last_name') _kwa = ('email', )It does exactly the same thing, except that there's less code.DetailsAs may you expect "_arg" is telling the basaclass how many and what are the names of *args for the object canstructor. "_kwa" tells what are the names of the keyword arguments.The default value for each keyword arg is simpletraits.NIL. If you want to add your own defaults you have two options:1. make use of simpletraits.kwa objects: from simpletraits import baseclass, kwa class User(baseclass): _kwa = (kwa('email', 'default@email.com'), )2. you can just asign dict to _kwa class variable: from simpletraits import baseclass class User(baseclass): _kwa = dict( email = 'default@email.com', )How to install pip install simpletraitsTestsTo run tests simply download / clone package and type python tests.pyProduct's homepage
