``attrs`` is an `MIT <http://choosealicense.com/licenses/mit/>`_-licensed Python package with class decorators that ease the chores of implementing the most common attribute-related object protocols:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: pycon
|
||
|
||
>>> import attr
|
||
>>> @attr.s
|
||
... class C(object):
|
||
... x = attr.a(default_value=42)
|
||
... y = attr.a(default_factory=list)
|
||
>>> i = C(x=1, y=2)
|
||
>>> i
|
||
<C(x=1, y=2)>
|
||
>>> i == C(1, 2)
|
||
True
|
||
>>> i != C(2, 1)
|
||
True
|
||
>>> attr.to_dict(i)
|
||
{'y': 2, 'x': 1}
|
||
>>> C()
|
||
<C(x=42, y=[])>
|
||
|
||
You just specify the attributes to work with and ``attrs`` gives you:
|
||
|
||
- a nice human-readable ``__repr__``,
|
||
- a complete set of comparison methods,
|
||
- and an initializer
|
||
|
||
*without* writing dull boilerplate code again and again.
|
||
|
||
This gives you the power to use actual classes with actual types in your code instead of confusing ``tuple``\ s or confusingly behaving ``namedtuple``\ s.
|
||
|
||
So put down that type-less data structures and welcome some class into your life!
|
||
|
||
``attrs``\ ’s documentation lives at `Read the Docs <https://attrs.readthedocs.org/>`_, the code on `GitHub <https://github.com/hynek/attrs>`_.
|
||
It’s rigorously tested on Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3+, and PyPy.
