toolz-stubs 0.4.0

Type stubs for toolz

toolz-stubs

Type stubs for toolz and tlz - Python functional programming libraries.

Installation

pip install toolz-stubs

This installs type stubs for both toolz and tlz.

Usage

Once installed, type checkers like mypy, pyright, or basedpyright will automatically use these stubs:

import toolz

bills = {"Alice": [20, 15, 30], "Bob": [10, 35]}
totals = toolz.valmap(sum, bills)  # dict[str, int]

even_entries = toolz.keyfilter(lambda k: k % 2 == 0, {1: "a", 2: "b", 3: "c"})  # dict[int, str]

names = ["Alice", "Bob", "Charlie", "Anna"]
grouped = toolz.groupby(lambda s: s[0], names)  # dict[str, list[str]]

Using with cytoolz

When you pip install toolz, you also get a second package called tlz. It's a thin auto-selecting wrapper: if cytoolz (the C-accelerated version) is installed, tlz imports from it; otherwise it falls back to pure-Python toolz. The API is identical either way.

If you use cytoolz, you can switch your imports to tlz to get the same performance with type checking support and a graceful fallback:

# before
from cytoolz.dicttoolz import merge, valmap
from cytoolz.functoolz import curry, compose, pipe

# after — same performance, now with type stubs
from tlz.dicttoolz import merge, valmap
from tlz.functoolz import curry, compose, pipe

What's Included

This package provides type stubs (.pyi files) for:

• toolz: The pure Python functional programming library
• tlz: The auto-selecting wrapper (uses cytoolz if installed, otherwise falls back to toolz)

Modules covered:

• toolz.functoolz / tlz.functoolz - Function manipulation (curry, compose, pipe, etc.)
• toolz.itertoolz / tlz.itertoolz - Iterator utilities (groupby, partition, sliding_window, etc.)
• toolz.dicttoolz / tlz.dicttoolz - Dictionary operations (merge, valmap, keyfilter, etc.)
• toolz.curried / tlz.curried - Pre-curried versions of all functions
• toolz.recipes / tlz.recipes - Common recipes (countby, partitionby)
• toolz.sandbox / tlz.sandbox - Experimental utilities

Development

make sync    # Install dependencies
make check   # Run type checker
make test    # Run tests
make lint    # Run linter
make format  # Check formatting
make build   # Build wheel

If manually running commands, be sure to specify --no-editable or hatchling will mispackage toolz & tlz packages.

Tests

The tests in tests/ serve a few purposes:

• they verify runtime behavior with pytest.
• they verify that these stubs genuinely improve the developer experience in an IDE.
• they are type-checked by basedpyright. This ensures the stubs match actual library behavior.

Contributing

Contributions are welcome! Areas that could use improvement:

1. More precise generic types
2. Additional overloads for functions with variable signatures
3. Improved curry and composition typing
4. Protocol types for duck-typed parameters
