``attrs`` is the Python package that will bring back the **joy** of **writing classes** by relieving you from the drudgery of implementing object protocols (aka `dunder methods <https://www.attrs.org/en/latest/glossary.html#term-dunder-methods>`_).
|
|
`Trusted by NASA <https://docs.github.com/en/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/customizing-your-profile/personalizing-your-profile#list-of-qualifying-repositories-for-mars-2020-helicopter-contributor-achievement>`_ for Mars missions since 2020!
|
|
|
|
Its main goal is to help you to write **concise** and **correct** software without slowing down your code.
|
|
|
|
.. teaser-end
|
|
|
|
For that, it gives you a class decorator and a way to declaratively define the attributes on that class:
|
|
|
|
.. -code-begin-
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: pycon
|
|
|
|
>>> from attrs import asdict, define, make_class, Factory
|
|
|
|
>>> @define
|
|
... class SomeClass:
|
|
... a_number: int = 42
|
|
... list_of_numbers: list[int] = Factory(list)
|
|
...
|
|
... def hard_math(self, another_number):
|
|
... return self.a_number + sum(self.list_of_numbers) * another_number
|
|
|
|
|
|
>>> sc = SomeClass(1, [1, 2, 3])
|
|
>>> sc
|
|
SomeClass(a_number=1, list_of_numbers=[1, 2, 3])
|
|
|
|
>>> sc.hard_math(3)
|
|
19
|
|
>>> sc == SomeClass(1, [1, 2, 3])
|
|
True
|
|
>>> sc != SomeClass(2, [3, 2, 1])
|
|
True
|
|
|
|
>>> asdict(sc)
|
|
{'a_number': 1, 'list_of_numbers': [1, 2, 3]}
|
|
|
|
>>> SomeClass()
|
|
SomeClass(a_number=42, list_of_numbers=[])
|
|
|
|
>>> C = make_class("C", ["a", "b"])
|
|
>>> C("foo", "bar")
|
|
C(a='foo', b='bar')
|
|
|
|
|
|
After *declaring* your attributes, ``attrs`` gives you:
|
|
|
|
- a concise and explicit overview of the class's attributes,
|
|
- a nice human-readable ``__repr__``,
|
|
- equality-checking methods,
|
|
- an initializer,
|
|
- and much more,
|
|
|
|
*without* writing dull boilerplate code again and again and *without* runtime performance penalties.
|
|
|
|
**Hate type annotations**!?
|
|
No problem!
|
|
Types are entirely **optional** with ``attrs``.
|
|
Simply assign ``attrs.field()`` to the attributes instead of annotating them with types.
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
This example uses ``attrs``'s modern APIs that have been introduced in version 20.1.0, and the ``attrs`` package import name that has been added in version 21.3.0.
|
|
The classic APIs (``@attr.s``, ``attr.ib``, plus their serious-business aliases) and the ``attr`` package import name will remain **indefinitely**.
|
|
|
|
Please check out `On The Core API Names <https://www.attrs.org/en/latest/names.html>`_ for a more in-depth explanation.

|
Data Classes
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
On the tin, ``attrs`` might remind you of ``dataclasses`` (and indeed, ``dataclasses`` `are a descendant <https://hynek.me/articles/import-attrs/>`_ of ``attrs``).
|
|
In practice it does a lot more and is more flexible.
|
|
For instance it allows you to define `special handling of NumPy arrays for equality checks <https://www.attrs.org/en/stable/comparison.html#customization>`_, or allows more ways to `plug into the initialization process <https://www.attrs.org/en/stable/init.html#hooking-yourself-into-initialization>`_.
|
