oxypy

Fully-featured ports of several essential structs from Rust into pure Python

Since true privacy is impossible, inner values of the classes are

Methods

Some methods are deemed unnecessary due to the differences in the languages

Removed Methods:

• Copy and clone methods
• Ref and deref methods
• Unchecked methods
• Type-dependent methods

Reasons:

• Methods relating to references are useless due to lack of them in Python.
• Unchecked methods are unneccessary due to the lac of the unsafe system.
• Type dependent methods are practically impossible due to the dynamic type system.

Examples

Note: Type annotations are not always necessary, but are done here for brevity

Option

from oxypy import Option

some: Option[int] = Option.some(10)
none: Option[int] = Option.none()

Result

ok: Result[int, str] = Result.ok(10)
err: Result[int, str] = Result.err("An error occured")

Either

from oxypy import Either

left: Either[int, float] = Either.left(42)
right: Either[int, float] = Either.right(3.14159265)
