Standard-Deluxe

Standard-Deluxe is an open-Source general-purpose Python library.

Overview

Standard-Deluxe provides a handpicked collection of enhanced Python modules that extend the standard library with robust, type-safe, and pythonic solutions. Standard-Deluxe is positioned as a general Python library tailored for application development.

The name Standard-Deluxe draws inspiration from the argentic photography era's Agfa Standard Deluxe cameras known for their high quality and craftsmanship.

Getting Started

Requirements

• Python 3.11 or higher
• No external dependencies required

Installation

Add library to your pyproject.toml dependencies:

[project]
dependencies = [ "standard-deluxe" ]

Using uv to add library to your pyproject.toml:

uv add standard-deluxe

Or to install in a dedicated virtual environment.

uv pip install standard-deluxe

Alternatively, you can install it with pip:

pip install standard-deluxe

Usage

Standard-Deluxe modules are designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing Python workflows, providing enhanced functionality. The python library name is just deluxe:

from deluxe.types import Unset

my_var: str = Unset

Type Safety First: Type safety is a foundational concern. Constant effort is dedicated to make accurate and meaningful type annotations that work seamlessly with static type checkers like pyright/basedpyright, or mypy.

Comprehensive Documentation: Every API is documented with well-formatted docstrings used to generate API HTML documentation and offer useful hints inside IDE or with python help() function call.

Zero Dependencies: Built with no external dependencies as pure Python or c based extension module where performance is a concern.

Pythonic: Adherence to Python best practices with careful avoidance of anti-patterns, following the principle that code should be both elegant and practical.

PEP 8 Compliance: All APIs follow Python naming conventions and style guidelines for consistent, readable code.
