Decorating: A Meta Repo To Decorators

Abstract

This project encourages an exploration into the limits of decorators in Python. While decorators might by new to beginners, they are an extremely useful feature of the language. They can be similar to Lisp Macros, but without changes to the AST. Great decorators from this packages are @animated and @writing. This repository is made from scratch, just using Python’s Standard Library, no dependency!

Examples

Decorators & Usage

Currently public decorators on the API of decorators decorating:

• decorating.debug

• decorating.cache

• decorating.counter

• decorating.count_time

Mostly decorators has a pretty consistent usage, but for now only animated and writing has support to use as contextmanagers using the with syntax.
