A function-managing package for models and systems with shared variables.
Project description
porchlight
porchlight
is a function management suite that handles common inputs and
outputs of methods and/or functions which evolve over the lifetime of a program.
This package's original intent was to be a part of a modular scientific package yet to be released. Rather than isolating this method to a single model, the already-developed work has been modified to stand alone as a package.
porchlight
does not have any dependencies outside of the standard CPython
library. Please note that porchlight
requires Python 3.9+, and that examples
may require external libraries such as numpy
and matplotlib
.
Installation
You can install porchlight
by cloning this repository to a local directory,
opening a command line, and running:
pip install porchlight
Usage
The main object used in porchlight
is the porchlight.Neighborhood
object.
This groups all functions together and keeps track of call order and
parameters.
import porchlight
# We call a porchlight.Neighborhood object to instantiate it with no functions
# yet.
neighborhood = porchlight.Neighborhood()
# To add a function, we simply define it and pass it to porchlight.
def increase_x(x: int, y: int) -> int:
x = x * y
return x
neighborhood.add_function(increase_x)
# The neighborhood object inspects the function, finding input and output
# variables if present. These are added to the collections of functions and
# parameters.
print(neighborhood)
Although this is the current extent of documentation, there should be some more complete documentation within the next couple weeks/months.
