pyclassparser 0.7

Parse Python classes and attributes from a string of Python code.

PyClassParser

PyClassParser is a Python library designed to parse Python class definitions and extract class attributes. It uses the attrs library for defining class attributes and ensures type safety with attrs-strict.

Currently it only supports Pydantic class format.

Features

• Parses Python class definitions to extract class names and their attributes.
• Uses attrs for attribute definition and attrs-strict for type validation.
• Handles optional attributes and attributes with default values.

Installation

To install PyClassParser, you need to have Python 3.x installed. You can install the required dependencies using pip:

pip install attrs attrs-strict

Usage

Here's how you can use PyClassParser to parse Python class definitions:

Example Code

Create a Python script, for example example.py:

from pyclassparser import ClassParser

code = """
class MyClass:
    attr1: int
    attr2: str = "default"

class AnotherClass:
    attr3: float
"""
parser = ClassParser(code=code)
print(parser.output)
print(parser.class_data_dict)

Example Output

Running the above script should give you the parsed output of class definitions:

class MyClass:
    attr1: int
    attr2: str = "default"

class AnotherClass:
    attr3: float

{'MyClass': [ClassATTR(attr_value='attr1', attr_type='int'), ClassATTR(attr_value='attr2', attr_type='str')], 
 'AnotherClass': [ClassATTR(attr_value='attr3', attr_type='float')]}
