pydantic-property 0.0.1

Simple Example

from pydantic import PrivateAttr
from pydantic_property import PropertyModel, field_property

class Props(PropertyModel):
    x: int = field_property('_x', default=0)  # getter is created with '_x'

    @x.setter
    def x(self, value):
        self._x = value  # Note: matches field_property('_x')

    y: int = field_property('_y', default=0)  # Need to define '_y' for __private_attribute__

    @y.getter
    def y(self) -> int:
        return getattr(self, '_y', 0)

    @y.setter
    def y(self, value):
        if isinstance(value, float):
            self._x = int((value % 1) * 10)  # Must update all field_property with __dict__ for _x to be seen
        self._y = int(value)

    # Does not have a __private_attribute__ so '_z' will fail. we hack this later for testing
    @field_property(default=0)
    def z(self):
        return getattr(self, '_z', 0)

    @z.setter
    def z(self, value):
        self._z = value

    # Have to add private attribute to allow _z to work.
    # z.private_name = '_z'
    # or
    _z = PrivateAttr(default=0)  # field_property.PrivateAttr

p = Props()
print(p)
p.x = 2
p.y = 1.5
print(p)

assert p.x == 5, '{} != {}'.format(p.x, 5)
assert p.y == 1, '{} != {}'.format(p.y, 1)

msg = p.dict()
assert p.x == msg['x'], '{} != {}'.format(p.x, msg['x'])
assert p.y == msg['y'], '{} != {}'.format(p.y, msg['y'])
assert p.z == msg['z'], '{} != {}'.format(p.z, msg['z'])

Pydantic Notes Example

Pydantic __dict__ Example below does not work, but shows what pydantic is doing in the background.

from pydantic import BaseModel, PrivateAttr

class MyModel(BaseModel):
    x: int = 1

    # Property doesn't really work. This is to show what pydantic does.
    _y: int = PrivateAttr(default=1)

    @property
    def y(self):
        return self._y

    @y.setter
    def y(self, value):
        self._y = value

    def set_point(self, x, y):
        self.x = x
        self._y = y

m = MyModel()
m.x = 2  # This actually sets self.__dict__['x'] = 2
assert m.dict() == {'x': 2}

m.y = 3  # Essentially this would change self.__dict__['y'] = 2
assert m.dict() == {'x': 2, 'y': 3}
assert m.__dict__ == {'x': 2, 'y': 3}

# This sets self.__dict__['x'] = 4 and the instance value m._y to 5, but does not change self.__dict__['y']
m.set_point(4, 5)
m.dict() == {'x': 4, 'y': 3}  # y is not updated ._y is 5. self.__dict__['y'] still == 3

# This is why field_property must update __dict__ for all field_property values.
# This makes the field_property inefficient.
