strongtyping 1.1.6

Decorator which checks whether the function is called with the correct type of parameters

Strong Typing

Decorator which checks whether the function is called with the correct type of parameters.
And raises TypeMisMatch if the used parameters in a function call where invalid.

See _test_typing.py_ for more informations.
But why??

I really love python and his freedom but with the new option of adding type hints I wanted to get rid of writing if isinstance(value, whatever) in my programs.

In a bigger project it happened that some developers used a really tiny IDE and others a more advanced one which highlighted typing issues. And there the trouble began, we had a bug and after a longer debugging session we found out that the issue was a wrong type of an argument, it doesn't crashed the program but the output was totally not what we expected.

And this is the reason why I created this package.

Getting Started

As normal decorator

@match_typing
def foo_bar(a: str, b: int, c: list):
    ...

as class method decorator

class Foo:
    ...
    @match_typing
    def foo_bar(self, a: int):
        ...
