Python package providing utilities to check classes attributes when accessing it.

Installation

Use the package manager pip to install readycheck:

pip install readycheck

Dependencies

  • Python ≥ 3.5

Goal

The goal of this module is to allow to add custom checks when accessing class attributes.

It is designed to build classes that store objects not available at import time (e.g. later fetched from a distant service). It avoid us the pain to check if the connection has been established each time we need these objects: trying to access them will automagically raise an exception if they are not ready.

Usage

This package's main external API in the ReadyCheck class.

This class is not meant to be instantiated (see documentation for details), but to be subclassed using a custom check function:

from readycheck import ReadyCheck

class User(ReadyCheck, check_type=dict, check=lambda val: "name" in val):
    john = {"id": "<john_id>", "area": 2}
    jane = {"id": "<jane_id>", "area": 5}

Usage:

>>> User.john
Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
readycheck.NotReadyError: 'john' is not ready yet!
>>> john_data = User.get_raw("john")
>>> User.john = some_lib.load_user(john_data)
>>> User.john
{'id': '<john id>', 'area': 2, 'name': 'John Doe', 'subscribed': False}
