Utilities

How to use the Place and PlaceGenerator classes.

You define a subclass of Place for each “type” of place:

>>> from commondata.utils import Place, PlaceGenerator
>>> class PlaceInFoo(Place):
...     def __str__(self):
...        return self.name
>>> class Kingdom(PlaceInFoo):
...     value = 1
>>> class County(PlaceInFoo):
...     value = 2
>>> class Borough(PlaceInFoo):
...     value = 3
>>> class Village(PlaceInFoo):
...     value = 3

The PlaceGenerator is used to instantiate to populate

Part 1 : configuration:

>>> pg = PlaceGenerator()
>>> pg.install(Kingdom, County, Borough, Village)
>>> pg.set_args('name')

Part 2 : filling data

>>> root = pg.kingdom("Kwargia")
>>> def fill(pg):
...    pg.county("Kwargia")
...    pg.borough("Kwargia")
...    pg.village("Virts")
...    pg.village("Vinks")
...    pg.county("Gorgia")
...    pg.village("Girts")
...    pg.village("Ginks")

>>> fill(pg)

Part 3 : using the data

>>> [str(x) for x in root.children]
['Kwargia', 'Gorgia']
>>> kwargia = root.children[0]
>>> [str(x) for x in kwargia.children]
['Kwargia', 'Virts', 'Vinks']

>>> pg = PlaceGenerator()
>>> pg.install(Kingdom, County, Borough, Village)
>>> pg.set_args('name name_ar')
>>> root = pg.kingdom("Egypt", u'\u0645\u0635\u0631')
>>> print(root.name_ar)
