pyiron-snippets 0.1.1

pyiron_snippets - Short, dependency-free python snippets.

pyiron_snippets

This is a collection of independent python snippets which we in the pyiron project find generically useful.

To qualify for inclusion, a snippet must not have any dependencies outside the python standard library, and should fit reasonably inside a single file.

(Note that the tests may have non-standard dependencies, e.g. to ensure the snippets work in various edge cases we care about, but the actual snippets themselves must be able to behave well in a clean environment.)

Summary

The snippets may have more functionality that this -- taking a look at the test suite is the best way to get an exhaustive sense of their functionality -- but these examples will give you the gist of things.

Colors

Just a shortcut to the seaborn.color_palette() of colors in hex:

>> > from pyiron_snippets.colors import SeabornColors
>> > SeabornColors.white
'#ffffff'

Deprecate

Easily indicate that some functionality is being deprecated

>> > from pyiron_snippets.deprecate import deprecate
>> >
>> >

@deprecate(message="Use `bar(a, b)` instead", version="0.5.0")


...


def foo(a, b):


    ...
pass
>> > foo(1, 2)

Raises a warning like DeprecationWarning: __main__.foo is deprecated: Use bar(a, b) instead. It is not guaranteed to be in service in vers. 0.5.0 foo(1, 2)

DotDict

A dictionary that allows dot-access. Has .items() etc.

>> > from pyiron_snippets.dotdict import DotDict
>> >
>> > d = DotDict({"a": 1})
>> > d.b = 2
>> > print(d.a, d.b)
1
2

Factory

Make dynamic classes that are still pickle-able

>> > from abc import ABC
>> > import pickle
>> >
>> > from pyiron_snippets.factory import classfactory
>> >
>> >

class HasN(ABC):


    ...
'''Some class I want to make dynamically subclass.'''
...


def __init_subclass__(cls, /, n=0, s="foo", **kwargs):


    ...
super(HasN, cls).__init_subclass__(**kwargs)
...
cls.n = n
...
cls.s = s
...
...


def __init__(self, x, y=0):


    ...
self.x = x
...
self.y = y
>> >
>> >

@classfactory


...


def has_n_factory(n, s="wrapped_function", /):


    ...
return (
    ...         f"{HasN.__name__}{n}{s}",  # New class name
...(HasN, ),  # Base class(es)
...
{},  # Class attributes dictionary
...
{"n": n, "s": s}
...  # dict of `builtins.type` kwargs (passed to `__init_subclass__`)
...     )
>> > Has2 = has_n_factory(2, "my_dynamic_class")
>> >
>> > foo = Has2(42, y=-1)
>> > print(foo.n, foo.s, foo.x, foo.y)
2
my_dynamic_class
42 - 1

>> > reloaded = pickle.loads(pickle.dumps(foo))  # doctest: +SKIP
>> > print(reloaded.n, reloaded.s, reloaded.x, reloaded.y)  # doctest: +SKIP
2
my_dynamic_class
42 - 1  # doctest: +SKIP

(Pickle doesn't play well with testing the docs -- you can't run pickle.dumps(pickle.loads(5)) either!)

Files

Shortcuts for filesystem manipulation

>> > from pyiron_snippets.files import DirectoryObject, FileObject
>> >
>> > d = DirectoryObject("some_dir")
>> > d.write(file_name="my_filename.txt", content="Some content")
>> > f = FileObject("my_filename.txt", directory=d)
>> > f.is_file()
True
>> > f2 = f.copy("new_filename.txt", directory=d.create_subdirectory("sub"))
>> > f2.read()
'Some content'
>> > d.file_exists("sub/new_filename.txt")
True
>> > d.delete()

Has post

A meta-class introducing a __post__ dunder which runs after the __init__ of everything in the MRO.

>> > from pyiron_snippets.has_post import HasPost
>> >
>> >

class Foo(metaclass=HasPost):


    ...


def __init__(self, x=0):


    ...
self.x = x
...
print(f"Foo.__init__: x = {self.x}")
>> >
>> >

class Bar(Foo):


    ...


def __init__(self, x=0, post_extra=2):


    ...
super().__init__(x)
...
self.x += 1
...
print(f"Bar.__init__: x = {self.x}")
...
...


def __post__(self, *args, post_extra=2, **kwargs):


    ...
self.x += post_extra
...
...
print(f"Bar.__post__: x = {self.x}")
>> >
>> > Bar().x
Foo.__init__: x = 0
Bar.__init__: x = 1
Bar.__post__: x = 3
3

Honestly, try thinking if there's another way to solve your problem; this is a dark magic.

Import alarm

Fail gracefully when optional dependencies are missing for (optional) functionality.

>> > from pyiron_snippets.import_alarm import ImportAlarm
>> >
>> > with ImportAlarm(
    ...     "Some functionality unavailable: `magic` dependency missing"
...) as my_magic_alarm:
    ...
import magic
>> >
>> > with ImportAlarm("This warning won't show up") as datetime_alarm:
    ...
import datetime
>> >
>> >

class Foo:


    ... @ my_magic_alarm
... @ datetime_alarm
...


def __init__(self, x):


    ...
self.x = x
...
... @ property
...


def magical(self):


    ...
return magic.method(self.x)
...
...


def a_space_odyssey(self):


    ...
print(datetime.date(2001, 1, 1))
...
>> >
>> > foo = Foo(0)
>> >  # Raises a warning re `magic` (since that does not exist)
>> >  # but not re `datetime` (since it does and we certainly have it)
>> > foo.a_space_odyssey()
2001 - 01 - 01

>> > try:
    ...
foo.magical(0)
... except NameError as e:
...
print("ERROR:", e)
ERROR: name
'magic' is not defined

Logger

Configures the logger and writes to pyiron.log

Retry

If at first you don't succeed

>> > from time import time
>> >
>> > from pyiron_snippets.retry import retry
>> >
>> >

def at_most_three_seconds():


    ...
t = int(time())
...
if t % 3 != 0:
    ...
raise ValueError("Not yet!")
...
return t
>> >
>> > retry(at_most_three_seconds, msg="Tried and failed...", error=ValueError) % 3
0

Depending on the system clock at invokation, this simple example may give warnings like UserWarning: Tried and failed... Trying again in 1.0s. Tried 1 times so far... up to two times.

Singleton

A metaclass for the singleton pattern.

>> > from pyiron_snippets.singleton import Singleton
>> >
>> >

class Foo(metaclass=Singleton):


    ...
pass
>> >
>> > foo1 = Foo()
>> > foo2 = Foo()
>> > foo1 is foo2
True
