proxo 1.0.2

Object proxies (wrappers) for protobuf messages

Proxo

Extend protobuf message with custom methods properties and additional attributes

TL;DR

from proxo import MessageProxy, encode, decode

class Person(MessageProxy):
    proto = addressbook_pb2.Person  # it can be more complex, like pattern matching, see below

    @property
    def firstname(self):
        return self.name.split(' ')[0]


p = Person(name='Test Me')
assert p.firstname == 'Test'
assert decode(encode(p)) == p

Usage

Given the addressbook protobuf definition

package tutorial;

message Person {
  required string name = 1;
  required int32 id = 2;
  optional string email = 3;

  enum PhoneType {
    MOBILE = 0;
    HOME = 1;
    WORK = 2;
  }

  message PhoneNumber {
    required string number = 1;
    optional PhoneType type = 2 [default = HOME];
  }

  repeated PhoneNumber phone = 4;
}

message AddressBook {
  repeated Person person = 1;
}

The traditional way

import addressbook_pb2

person = addressbook_pb2.Person()
person.id = 1234
person.name = "John Doe"
person.email = "[e-mail]"
phone = person.phone.add()
phone.number = "555-4321"
phone.type = addressbook_pb2.Person.HOME

via Proxo.dict_to_protobuf

from proxo import dict_to_protobuf, protobuf_to_dict

data = {'id': 124,
        'name': 'John Doe',
        'email': '[e-mail]',
        'phone': {'number': '555-4321',
                  'type': 'HOME'}}

proto = dict_to_protobuf(data, addressbook_pb2.Person)

assert person == proto

# converting back
mapping = protobuf_to_dict(proto)
mapping['phone']['number']
mapping.phone.number  # using dot notation

assert mapping == data

via extending Proxo.MessageProxy

from proxo import MessageProxy, encode, decode

# note that non defined types will be automatically proxied too

class Person(MessageProxy):
    proto = addressbook_pb2.Person  # it can be more complex, like pattern matching, see below

    @property
    def firstname(self):
        return self.name.split(' ')[0]

    def call(self):
        try:
            print('calling {}'.format(self.firstname))
            do_voip_call(self.phone.number)
        except:
            print('failed calling {} on his/her {} number'.format(self.firstname,
                                                                  self.phone.type.lower))

obj = Person(id=124, name='John Doe', phone={'number': '555-4321',
                                             'type': 'HOME'})
obj.phone.type = 'MOBILE'
assert obj.firsname == 'John'

proto = encode(obj)
john = decode(proto)

# lets bother him
john.call()
