Hi Guys,
This is an idea for a PEP.
How would you guys feel about adding decorator support for
"everything"? Currently, only functions and method are supported.
For example:
@GuardedClass
class Foo:
@Transient
a = 'a transient field, ignored when serializing'
@Const
PI = 22.0 / 7
@TypeSafe(int)
count = 10
...
instead of:
class Foo:
a = Transient('a transient field, ignored when serializing')
PI = Const(22.0 / 7)
count = TypeSafe(int)(10)
...
Foo = GuardedClass(Foo)
I mean, this would pave the way for a declarative style of programming
(in a more intuitive way).
It would also be better if multiple decorators could be written on the
same line. E.g.:
@A @B(x, y) @C
def foo(): ...
instead of
@A
@B(x, y)
@C
def foo(): ...
(The function definition should start on the next line though).
Suggestions, Comments, flames, anybody?
Cheers!
