simplestr 0.5.0

Simple annotations to automatically generate __str__(self), __repr__(self) and __eq__(self, other) methods in classes

simplestr

A python package with annotations to automatically generate __str__(self), __repr__(self) and __eq__(self, other) methods in classes

Description

This package provides only two annotations:

• @gen_str to generate __str__(self) method
• @gen_repr to generate __repr__(self) method
• @gen_eq to generate __eq__(self, other) method
• @gen_str_repr to generate both __str__(self) and __repr__(self) methods
• @gen_str_repr_eq to generate both __str__(self), __repr__(self) and __eq__(self, other) methods

Installation

Normal installation

pip install simplestr

Development installation

git clone https://github.com/jpleorx/simplestr.git
cd simplestr
pip install --editable .

Example A (with separate annotations)

from simplestr import gen_str, gen_repr, gen_eq

@gen_str
@gen_repr
@gen_eq
class Rect:
    def __init__(self, x: int, y: int, w: int, h: int):
        self.x = x
        self.y = y
        self.w = w
        self.h = h

rect1 = Rect(1, 2, 3, 4)
rect2 = Rect(10, 20, 30, 40)
print(rect1)
print(rect2)
print([rect1, rect2])
print(rect1 == rect2)
print(rect1 == Rect(1, 2, 3, 4))

Rect{x=1, y=2, w=3, h=4}
Rect{x=10, y=20, w=30, h=40}
[Rect{x=1, y=2, w=3, h=4}, Rect{x=10, y=20, w=30, h=40}]
False
True

Example B (with joined annotation)

from simplestr import gen_str_repr_eq

@gen_str_repr_eq
class Rect:
    def __init__(self, x: int, y: int, w: int, h: int):
        self.x = x
        self.y = y
        self.w = w
        self.h = h

rect1 = Rect(1, 2, 3, 4)
rect2 = Rect(10, 20, 30, 40)
print(rect1)
print(rect2)
print([rect1, rect2])
print(rect1 == rect2)
print(rect1 == Rect(1, 2, 3, 4))

Rect{x=1, y=2, w=3, h=4}
Rect{x=10, y=20, w=30, h=40}
[Rect{x=1, y=2, w=3, h=4}, Rect{x=10, y=20, w=30, h=40}]
False
True
