Arganic

Arganic is a simple and lightweight Python library making it easy to manage Arguments for Classes, Methods or Functions.

The library provides a very simple and comprehensive set of decorators with advanced features such as required arguments, validators, type checking, read/write accesses, default values, and choices.

By leveraging Python's *args and **kwargs, Arganic empowers developers to enhance the readability and functionality of their codebase with ease.

Key Features:

• Decorators for Classes, Methods, and Functions: Apply decorators to classes, methods, and functions to extend their functionality and behavior.
• Required Parameters: Define required parameters for methods and functions to ensure essential inputs are provided.
• Validator Support: Validate method arguments, function parameters, and class properties using built-in or custom validators.
• Type Checking: Enforce type constraints and ensure type consistency with flexible type checking capabilities.
• Read/Write Access Control: Define read-only properties for classes, methods, and functions as needed.
• Default Values: Set default values for function arguments, method parameters, and class properties to streamline code logic.
• Choice Selection: Specify a list of choices for method arguments and function parameters, restricting input values to predefined options.

Decorators

Arganic provides 3 distinct types of decorators:

• @class_properties : A decorator for class properties allowing you to define the data managed by the class during construction and then access these values within the class.
• @method_arguments : A decorator for class methods allowing you to constrain the arguments provided during the call but also to find the correctly formatted values within the method.
• @function_arguments : A decorator for functions allowing you to constrain the arguments provided during the call but also to find the correctly formatted values within the function.
