runtype 0.1

Type dispatch and validation for run-time

runtype is composed of several utility modules:

1. dispatch - Provides a decorator for fast multi-dispatch at run-time for functions, with sophisticated ambiguity resolution.

2. dataclass - Improves on Python’s existing dataclass, by verifying the type-correctness of its attributes at run-time. Also provides a few useful methods for dataclasses.

3. isa - Provides alternative functions to isinstance and issubclass, that undestand Python’s typing module.

Runtype’s integration with the typing module allows to use type signatures such as List[int], Optional[str], or Union[int, str, Callable].
