A utility for generating Python type hinting stub files for Masonite ORM models.

Masonite IDE Helper

Masonite IDE Helper is a utility for generating Python type hinting stub files (.pyi) for Masonite ORM models. It automates the process of extracting relevant information such as class names, properties, and methods with their return types from model files.

Installation

You can install the Masonite IDE Helper via pip:

pip install masonite-ide-helper

Usage

To use the Masonite IDE Helper, follow these steps:

1. Import the library:

   from masonite_ide_helper import IdeHelper
   

2. Instantiate the IdeHelper class:

   ide_helper = IdeHelper(models_dir="path/to/models")
   

   If the models_dir parameter is not provided, it defaults to the "application/models" directory.

3. Call the make_pyi_files method:

   ide_helper.make_pyi_files()
   

   This will generate .pyi files for the models located in the specified directory.

Example

from masonite_ide_helper import IdeHelper

# Instantiate IdeHelper with optional models directory parameter
ide_helper = IdeHelper(models_dir="path/to/models")

# Generate .pyi files for the models
ide_helper.make_pyi_files()

Documentation

IdeHelper class

__init__(self, models_dir: str | None = None)

Initializes an instance of IdeHelper.

• models_dir (str | None): The directory path containing the model files. If not provided, defaults to the "application/models" directory.

make_pyi_files(self)

Generates Python type hinting stub files (.pyi) for the models located in the specified directory.

get_models(self)

Retrieves the list of model files from the specified directory and extracts relevant information such as class name, module path, properties, and methods with their return types.

Notes

• This library assumes a standard Masonite project structure where models reside in the "application/models" directory. If your project structure differs, you may need to adjust the models_dir parameter accordingly.
• If any error occurs during the generation of stubs for a model, the error message will be printed, and the process will continue for other models.
