``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 <https://nedbatchelder.com/blog/200605/dunder.html>`_ methods).
|
|
|
|
Its main goal is to help you to write **concise** and **correct** software without slowing down your code.
|
|
|
|
.. -spiel-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
|
|
|
|
>>> import attr
|
|
|
|
>>> @attr.s
|
|
... class SomeClass(object):
|
|
... a_number = attr.ib(default=42)
|
|
... list_of_numbers = attr.ib(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
|
|
|
|
>>> attr.asdict(sc)
|
|
{'a_number': 1, 'list_of_numbers': [1, 2, 3]}
|
|
|
|
>>> SomeClass()
|
|
SomeClass(a_number=42, list_of_numbers=[])
|
|
|
|
>>> C = attr.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__``,
|
|
- a complete set of comparison methods,
|
|
- an initializer,
|
|
- and much more,
|
|
|
|
*without* writing dull boilerplate code again and again and *without* runtime performance penalties.
|
|
|
|
On Python 3.6 and later, you can often even drop the calls to ``attr.ib()`` by using `type annotations <https://www.attrs.org/en/latest/types.html>`_.
|
|
|
|
This gives you the power to use actual classes with actual types in your code instead of confusing ``tuple``\ s or `confusingly behaving <https://www.attrs.org/en/stable/why.html#namedtuples>`_ ``namedtuple``\ s.
|
|
Which in turn encourages you to write *small classes* that do `one thing well <https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/boundaries>`_.
|
|
Never again violate the `single responsibility principle <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_responsibility_principle>`_ just because implementing ``__init__`` et al is a painful drag.

============

|
|
|
**Amber Hawkie Brown**, Twisted Release Manager and Computer Owl:
|
|
|
|
Writing a fully-functional class using attrs takes me less time than writing this testimonial.
|
|

|
|
|
**Glyph Lefkowitz**, creator of `Twisted <https://twistedmatrix.com/>`_, `Automat <https://pypi.org/project/Automat/>`_, and other open source software, in `The One Python Library Everyone Needs <https://glyph.twistedmatrix.com/2016/08/attrs.html>`_:
|
|
|
|
I’m looking forward to is being able to program in Python-with-attrs everywhere.
|
|
It exerts a subtle, but positive, design influence in all the codebases I’ve see it used in.

**Kenneth Reitz**, author of `Requests <http://www.python-requests.org/>`_ and Developer Advocate at DigitalOcean, (`on paper no less <https://twitter.com/hynek/status/866817877650751488>`_!):
|
|
|
|
attrs—classes for humans. I like it.
|

**Łukasz Langa**, prolific CPython core developer and Production Engineer at Facebook:
|
|
|
|
I'm increasingly digging your attr.ocity. Good job!

Project Information
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
``attrs`` is released under the `MIT <https://choosealicense.com/licenses/mit/>`_ license,
|
|
its documentation lives at `Read the Docs <https://www.attrs.org/>`_,
|
|
the code on `GitHub <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs>`_,
|
|
and the latest release on `PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/attrs/>`_.
|
|
It’s rigorously tested on Python 2.7, 3.4+, and PyPy.
|
|
|
|
We collect information on **third-party extensions** in our `wiki <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/wiki/Extensions-to-attrs>`_.
|
|
Feel free to browse and add your own!
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to contribute to ``attrs`` you're most welcome and we've written `a little guide <https://www.attrs.org/en/latest/contributing.html>`_ to get you started!

Release Information
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
18.2.0 (2018-09-01)
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
Deprecations
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
- Comparing subclasses using ``<``, ``>``, ``<=``, and ``>=`` is now deprecated.
|
|
The docs always claimed that instances are only compared if the types are identical, so this is a first step to conform to the docs.
|
|
|
|
Equality operators (``==`` and ``!=``) were always strict in this regard.
|
|
`#394 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/394>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes
|
|
^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
- ``attrs`` now ships its own `PEP 484 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/>`_ type hints.
|
|
Together with `mypy <http://mypy-lang.org>`_'s ``attrs`` plugin, you've got all you need for writing statically typed code in both Python 2 and 3!
|
|
|
|
At that occasion, we've also added `narrative docs <https://www.attrs.org/en/stable/types.html>`_ about type annotations in ``attrs``.
|
|
`#238 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/238>`_
|
|
- Added *kw_only* arguments to ``attr.ib`` and ``attr.s``, and a corresponding *kw_only* attribute to ``attr.Attribute``.
|
|
This change makes it possible to have a generated ``__init__`` with keyword-only arguments on Python 3, relaxing the required ordering of default and non-default valued attributes.
|
|
`#281 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/281>`_,
|
|
`#411 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/411>`_
|
|
- The test suite now runs with ``hypothesis.HealthCheck.too_slow`` disabled to prevent CI breakage on slower computers.
|
|
`#364 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/364>`_,
|
|
`#396 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/396>`_
|
|
- ``attr.validators.in_()`` now raises a ``ValueError`` with a useful message even if the options are a string and the value is not a string.
|
|
`#383 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/383>`_
|
|
- ``attr.asdict()`` now properly handles deeply nested lists and dictionaries.
|
|
`#395 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/395>`_
|
|
- Added ``attr.converters.default_if_none()`` that allows to replace ``None`` values in attributes.
|
|
For example ``attr.ib(converter=default_if_none(""))`` replaces ``None`` by empty strings.
|
|
`#400 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/400>`_,
|
|
`#414 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/414>`_
|
|
- Fixed a reference leak where the original class would remain live after being replaced when ``slots=True`` is set.
|
|
`#407 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/407>`_
|
|
- Slotted classes can now be made weakly referenceable by passing ``@attr.s(weakref_slot=True)``.
|
|
`#420 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/420>`_
|
|
- Added *cache_hash* option to ``@attr.s`` which causes the hash code to be computed once and stored on the object.
|
|
`#425 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/425>`_
|
|
- Attributes can be named ``property`` and ``itemgetter`` now.
|
|
`#430 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/430>`_
|
|
- It is now possible to override a base class' class variable using only class annotations.
|
|
`#431 <https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/431>`_
|
|
|
|
`Full changelog <https://www.attrs.org/en/stable/changelog.html>`_.

It’s the spiritual successor of `characteristic <https://characteristic.readthedocs.io/>`_ and aspires to fix some of it clunkiness and unfortunate decisions.
|
|
Both were inspired by Twisted’s `FancyEqMixin <https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/api/twisted.python.util.FancyEqMixin.html>`_ but both are implemented using class decorators because `subclassing is bad for you <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MNVP9-hglc>`_, m’kay?
