once - Simplify Your Codebase with Universal Decorators and Metaclasses

Welcome to once, the ultimate Python package for streamlining your code! With once, you can define decorators and metaclasses in a single location and apply them globally to functions and classes. This powerful tool enhances code maintainability, readability, and efficiency, making your development process smoother and more productive.

Features

• Apply decorators to all functions, methods, and classes automatically.
• Enforce coding guidelines consistently across large codebases.
• Simple integration with existing projects.
• Flexible and customizable to fit various coding standards.

Installation

To install the once package, simply run:

pip install once

Usage

Use once at the entrypoint of your application. The example showcases how you can enforce coding guidelines globally.

The example-code can be found here. The example is a modification of an example from ArjanCodes.

Modify Functions:

With once you can define custom decorators and apply them to all functions in your codebase.

import once
import logging

from coding_guidelines import log_exceptions # <- This is a decorator
from some_custom_package import my_module


def main():
    result = my_module.do_stuff_1()
    my_module.do_stuff_2(result)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    (
        once.and_for_all.Functions()
        .apply_decorator(log_exceptions)
    )
    
    main()

Modify classes:

You can also apply decorators to classes or their methods. In addition you can make use of metaclasses.

import once

from coding_guidelines import (
    log_exceptions, # <- This is a decorator
    CheckMethodNames, # <- This is a metaclass
)
from some_custom_package import my_module


def main():
    result_handler = my_module.ResultHandler()
    result_1 = my_module.do_stuff_1()
    result_2 = my_module.do_stuff_2(result_1)

    result_handler.handle_results(result_1, result_2)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    (
        once.and_for_all.Functions()
        .apply_decorator(log_exceptions)
    )

    (
        once.and_for_all.Classes()
        .and_only_their_methods()
        .apply_decorator(log_exceptions) # <- apply the decorator only to the methods and not the class itself
    )

    (
        once.and_for_all.Classes()
        .apply_metaclass(CheckMethodNames)
    )

    main()

Configuration

You can exclude specific functions and classes from the application of a decorator / metaclass. In addition you can limit the application to a given package.

import once

from coding_guidelines import (
    log_exceptions, # <- This is a decorator
    CheckMethodNames, # <- This is a metaclass
)
from some_custom_package import my_module_1, my_module_2


def main():
    result_handler = my_module_1.ResultHandler()
    result_publisher = my_module_2.ResultPublisher()

    result_1 = my_module_1.do_stuff_1()
    result_2 = my_module_1.do_stuff_2(result)

    combined_results = result_handler.handle_results(result_1, result_2)
    result_publisher.publish_results(combined_result)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    (
        once.and_for_all
            .Functions()
            .exclude(names=["do_stuff_2"]) # <- Don't apply the decorator to function `do_stuff_2` 
            .apply_decorator(log_exceptions)
    )

    (
        once.and_for_all
            .Classes()
            .in_module(my_module_1)  # <- only apply the metaclass `CheckMethodNames` to classes in `my_module_1`
            .apply_metaclass(CheckMethodNames)
    )
    main()
