        self.bar: str = bar

    @classproperty
    def BAR(cls) -> int:
        return 1


assert Foo.BAR == 1
assert Foo(bar="one").BAR == 1


class CachedFoo:
    @override
    def __init__(self, bar: str) -> None:
        self.bar: str = bar

    @cached_classproperty
    def BAR(cls) -> int:

Supported Type-Checkers

This package makes use of some reasonably advanced Python functionality, not supported by all static type checkers. While we will attempt to fix type bugs in this project for alternative type-checkers, our focus is on the following officially supported type checkersfootnote:[The list of officially supported type checkers is subject to change between any minor version release]:

• mypy
• tyfootnote:[Support for ty is provided for preview only until ty provides its first non-beta full release. Our support for ty may be revoked at any time, while it is still in preview.]

❗ IMPORTANT
Patches to fix bugs in this project for alternative type-checkers are welcome and much appreciated!

Tests

See tests.py for further usage examples and expected behaviour.

To run tests

uv run --group test -- pytest
