✅ upd8

Version tracking for Python classes

🍐 wut?

Give your objects a version number that updates when you make changes.

⬇️ installation

pip install upd8
or
uv pip install upd8

▶️ Usage

Simple updates

>>> import upd8
>>> v = upd8.Versioned()
>>> v.version
0
>>> v.change()
1
>>> v.change()
2

Automatic versioning

Fields will update the version when you change them.

from upd8 import Versioned, field

class Doggo(Versioned):
    name = field("Pupper")
    legs = field(4)

>>> d = Doggo()
>>> d.legs -= 1
>>> d.name = "Tripod"
>>> d.version
2

Manual updates

change can be used as a context manager, and changes can be aborted by raising AbortChange:

>>> from upd8 import
>>> d = Doggo()
>>> d.legs = 1
>>> with d.change:
        if not d.legs:
            raise AbortChange()
        d.legs -= 1
>>> d.version
1

You can use async with Versioned.change from within asynchronous code.

Thread safety

If you're not using automatic updating fields, you can add thread safety to Versioned objects by decorating method with @waits, and avoid the context manager indenting your code with the @changes.

These work on async methods too.

class World(Versioned):
    _population: int = 8_000_000_000

    @changes
    def bottleneck(self, amount: float) -> int:
        survivors = int(self._population * amount)
        if survivors <= 0 or survivors == self._population:

            # set the return value in the AbortChange exception
            raise AbortChange(self._population)

        self._population = survivors
        return self._population

    @waits
    @property
    def population(self):
        return self._population
