Provides a 'classproperty' decorator.
Project description
Simple Python classproperty
decorator
This module provides a simple way for defining class properties.
Install
You can install this Python module via pip:
pip install simple-classproperty
Otherwise the module can be downloaded from PyPI: TODO
Usage
- Import the module:
from simple_classproperty import ClassPropertyMeta, classproperty
- Create a class with a class property:
class NewClass(metaclass=ClassPropertyMeta): _attr = "val" @classproperty def attr(cls): return cls._attr
Don't forget to set themetaclass
! - (Optional) Define also a setter and deleter for the newly created class property (this works like the standard python
property
):@attr.setter def attr(cls, value): cls._attr = value @attr.deleter def attr(cls): del cls._attr
Tips
The classproperty
is also accessible from an instance:
instance = NewClass()
print(instance.attr) # "val"
But when the value of the property is changed from an instance object, only the instance has this value:
instance = NewClass()
instance.attr = "new"
print(instance.attr) # "new"
print(NewClass.attr) # "val"
When deleting the property from the instance, the class value is used again:
instance = NewClass()
instance.attr = "new"
print(instance.attr) # "new"
del instance.attr
print(instance.attr) # "val"
