24
+ Convenience facilities for objects.
25
+
26
+ *Latest release 20241005*:
27
+ New public_subclasses(cls) returning all subclasses with public names.
28
+
29
+ ## <a name="as_dict"></a>`as_dict(o, selector=None)`
30
+
31
+ Return a dictionary with keys mapping to the values of the attributes of `o`.
32
+
33
+ Parameters:
34
+ * `o`: the object to map
35
+ * `selector`: the optional selection criterion
36
+
37
+ If `selector` is omitted or `None`, select "public" attributes,
38
+ those not commencing with an underscore.
39
+
40
+ If `selector` is a `str`, select attributes starting with `selector`.
41
+
42
+ Otherwise presume `selector` is callable
43
+ and select attributes `attr` where `selector(attr)` is true.
44
+
45
+ ## <a name="copy"></a>`copy(obj, *a, **kw)`
46
+
47
+ Convenient function to shallow copy an object with simple modifications.
48
+
49
+ Performs a shallow copy of `self` using copy.copy.
50
+
51
+ Treat all positional parameters as attribute names, and
52
+ replace those attributes with shallow copies of the original
53
+ attribute.
54
+
55
+ Treat all keyword arguments as (attribute,value) tuples and
56
+ replace those attributes with the supplied values.
57
+
58
+ ## <a name="flavour"></a>`flavour(obj)`
59
+
60
+ Return constants indicating the ``flavour'' of an object:
61
+ * `T_MAP`: DictType, DictionaryType, objects with an __keys__ or keys attribute.
62
+ * `T_SEQ`: TupleType, ListType, objects with an __iter__ attribute.
63
+ * `T_SCALAR`: Anything else.
64
+
65
+ ## <a name="O"></a>Class `O(types.SimpleNamespace)`
66
+
67
+ The `O` class is now obsolete, please subclass `types.SimpleNamespace`
68
+ or use a dataclass.
69
+
70
+ ## <a name="O_attritems"></a>`O_attritems(o)`
71
+
72
+ Generator yielding `(attr,value)` for relevant attributes of `o`.
73
+
74
+ ## <a name="O_attrs"></a>`O_attrs(o)`
75
+
76
+ Yield attribute names from `o` which are pertinent to `O_str`.
77
+
78
+ Note: this calls `getattr(o,attr)` to inspect it in order to
79
+ prune callables.
80
+
81
+ ## <a name="O_merge"></a>`O_merge(o, _conflict=None, _overwrite=False, **kw)`
82
+
83
+ Merge key:value pairs from a mapping into an object.
84
+
85
+ Ignore keys that do not start with a letter.
86
+ New attributes or attributes whose values compare equal are
87
+ merged in. Unequal values are passed to:
88
+
89
+ _conflict(o, attr, old_value, new_value)
90
+
91
+ to resolve the conflict. If _conflict is omitted or None
92
+ then the new value overwrites the old if _overwrite is true.
93
+
94
+ ## <a name="O_str"></a>`O_str(o, no_recurse=False, seen=None)`
95
+
96
+ Return a `str` representation of the object `o`.
97
+
98
+ Parameters:
99
+ * `o`: the object to describe.
100
+ * `no_recurse`: if true, do not recurse into the object's structure.
101
+ Default: `False`.
102
+ * `seen`: a set of previously sighted objects
103
+ to prevent recursion loops.
104
+
105
+ ## <a name="obj_as_dict"></a>`obj_as_dict(o, **kw)`
106
+
107
+ OBSOLETE obj_as_dict
108
+
109
+ OBSOLETE convesion of an object to a `dict`. Please us `cs.obj.as_dict`.
110
+
111
+ ## <a name="Proxy"></a>Class `Proxy`
112
+
113
+ An extremely simple proxy object
114
+ that passes all unmatched attribute accesses to the proxied object.
115
+
116
+ Note that setattr and delattr work directly on the proxy, not the proxied object.
117
+
118
+ ## <a name="public_subclasses"></a>`public_subclasses(cls)`
119
+
120
+ Return a list of the subclasses of `cls` which has public names.
121
+
122
+ ## <a name="Sentinel"></a>Class `Sentinel`
123
+
124
+ A simple class for named sentinels whose `str()` is just the name
125
+ and whose `==` uses `is`.
126
+
127
+ Example:
128
+
129
+ >>> from cs.obj import Sentinel
130
+ >>> MISSING = Sentinel("MISSING")
131
+ >>> print(MISSING)
132
+ MISSING
133
+ >>> other = Sentinel("other")
134
+ >>> MISSING == other
135
+ False
136
+ >>> MISSING == MISSING
137
+ True
138
+
139
+ ## <a name="singleton"></a>`singleton(registry, key, factory, fargs, fkwargs)`
140
+
141
+ Obtain an object for `key` via `registry` (a mapping of `key`=>object).
142
+ Return `(is_new,object)`.
143
+
144
+ If the `key` exists in the registry, return the associated object.
145
+ Otherwise create a new object by calling `factory(*fargs,**fkwargs)`
146
+ and store it as `key` in the `registry`.
147
+
148
+ The `registry` may be any mapping of `key`s to objects
149
+ but will usually be a `weakref.WeakValueDictionary`
150
+ in order that object references expire as normal,
151
+ allowing garbage collection.
152
+
153
+ *Note*: this function *is not* thread safe.
154
+ Multithreaded users should hold a mutex.
155
+
156
+ See the `SingletonMixin` class for a simple mixin to create
157
+ singleton classes,
158
+ which does provide thread safe operations.
159
+
160
+ ## <a name="SingletonMixin"></a>Class `SingletonMixin`
161
+
162
+ A mixin turning a subclass into a singleton factory.
163
+
164
+ *Note*: this mixin overrides `object.__new__`
165
+ and may not play well with other classes which override `__new__`.
166
+
167
+ *Warning*: because of the mechanics of `__new__`,
168
+ the instance's `__init__` method will always be called
169
+ after `__new__`,
170
+ even when a preexisting object is returned.
171
+ Therefore that method should be sensible
172
+ even for an already initialised
173
+ and probably subsequently modified object.
174
+
175
+ My suggested approach is to access some attribute,
176
+ and preemptively return if it already exists.
177
+ Example:
178
+
179
+ def __init__(self, x, y):
180
+ if 'x' in self.__dict__:
181
+ return
182
+ self.x = x
183
+ self.y = y
184
+
185
+ *Note*: we probe `self.__dict__` above to accomodate classes
186
+ with a `__getattr__` method.
187
+
188
+ *Note*: each class registry has a lock,
189
+ which ensures that reuse of an object
190
+ in multiple threads will call the `__init__` method
191
+ in a thread safe serialised fashion.
192
+
193
+ Implementation requirements:
194
+ a subclass should:
195
+ * provide a method `_singleton_key(*args,**kwargs)`
196
+ returning a key for use in the single registry,
197
+ computed from the positional and keyword arguments
198
+ supplied on instance creation
199
+ i.e. those which `__init__` would normally receive.
200
+ This should have the same signature as `__init__`
201
+ but using `cls` instead of `self`.
202
+ * provide a normal `__init__` method
203
+ which can be safely called again
204
+ after some earlier initialisation.
205
+
206
+ This class is thread safe for the registry operations.
207
+
208
+ Example:
209
+
210
+ class Pool(SingletonMixin):
211
+
212
+ @classmethod
213
+ def _singleton_key(cls, foo, bah=3):
214
+ return foo, bah
215
+
216
+ def __init__(self, foo, bah=3):
217
+ if hasattr(self, 'foo'):
218
+ return
219
+ ... normal __init__ stuff here ...
220
+ self.foo = foo
221
+ ...
222
+
223
+ *`SingletonMixin.__hash__(self)`*:
224
+ default hash and equality methods
225
+
226
+ *`SingletonMixin.singleton_also_by(also_key, key)`*:
227
+ Obtain a singleton by a secondary key.
228
+ Return the instance or `None`.
229
+
230
+ Parameters:
231
+ * `also_key`: the name of the secondary key index
232
+ * `key`: the key for the index
233
+
234
+ ## <a name="TrackedClassMixin"></a>Class `TrackedClassMixin`
235
+
236
+ A mixin to track all instances of a particular class.
237
+
238
+ This is aimed at checking the global state of objects of a
239
+ particular type, particularly states like counters. The
240
+ tracking is attached to the class itself.
241
+
242
+ The class to be tracked includes this mixin as a superclass and calls:
243
+
244
+ TrackedClassMixin.__init__(class_to_track)
245
+
246
+ from its __init__ method. Note that `class_to_track` is
247
+ typically the class name itself, not `type(self)` which would
248
+ track the specific subclass. At some relevant point one can call:
249
+
250
+ self.tcm_dump(class_to_track[, file])
251
+
252
+ `class_to_track` needs a `tcm_get_state` method to return the
253
+ salient information, such as this from cs.resources.MultiOpenMixin:
254
+
255
+ def tcm_get_state(self):
256
+ return {'opened': self.opened, 'opens': self._opens}
257
+
258
+ See cs.resources.MultiOpenMixin for example use.
259
+
260
+ *`TrackedClassMixin.tcm_all_state(klass)`*:
261
+ Generator yielding tracking information
262
+ for objects of type `klass`
263
+ in the form `(o,state)`
264
+ where `o` if a tracked object
265
+ and `state` is the object's `get_tcm_state` method result.
266
+
267
+ *`TrackedClassMixin.tcm_dump(klass, f=None)`*:
268
+ Dump the tracking information for `klass` to the file `f`
269
+ (default `sys.stderr`).

119
+ Return `(is_new,object)`.
120

121
+ If the `key` exists in the registry, return the associated object.
122
+ Otherwise create a new object by calling `factory(*fargs,**fkwargs)`

+ and store it as `key` in the `registry`.
124

+ but will usually be a `weakref.WeakValueDictionary`
127
+ in order that object references expire as normal,
128
+ allowing garbage collection.
129
+
130
+ *Note*: this function *is not* thread safe.
131
+ Multithreaded users should hold a mutex.
132
+
133
+ See the `SingletonMixin` class for a simple mixin to create
134
+ singleton classes,
135
+ which does provide thread safe operations.
136
+
137
+ ## <a name="SingletonMixin"></a>Class `SingletonMixin`
138
+
139
+ A mixin turning a subclass into a singleton factory.
140
+
141
+ *Note*: this mixin overrides `object.__new__`
142
+ and may not play well with other classes which override `__new__`.
143
+
144
+ *Warning*: because of the mechanics of `__new__`,
145
+ the instance's `__init__` method will always be called
146
+ after `__new__`,
147
+ even when a preexisting object is returned.
148
+ Therefore that method should be sensible
149
+ even for an already initialised
150
+ and probably subsequently modified object.
151
+
152
+ My suggested approach is to access some attribute,
153
+ and preemptively return if it already exists.
154
+ Example:
155
+
156
+ def __init__(self, x, y):
157
+ if 'x' in self.__dict__:
158
+ return
159
+ self.x = x
160
+ self.y = y
161
+
162
+ *Note*: we probe `self.__dict__` above to accomodate classes
163
+ with a `__getattr__` method.
164
+
165
+ *Note*: each class registry has a lock,
166
+ which ensures that reuse of an object
167
+ in multiple threads will call the `__init__` method
168
+ in a thread safe serialised fashion.
169
+
170
+ Implementation requirements:
171
+ a subclass should:
172
+ * provide a method `_singleton_key(*args,**kwargs)`
173
+ returning a key for use in the single registry,
174
+ computed from the positional and keyword arguments
175
+ supplied on instance creation
176
+ i.e. those which `__init__` would normally receive.
177
+ This should have the same signature as `__init__`
178
+ but using `cls` instead of `self`.
179
+ * provide a normal `__init__` method
180
+ which can be safely called again
181
+ after some earlier initialisation.
182
+
183
+ This class is thread safe for the registry operations.
184
+
185
+ Example:
186
+
187
+ class Pool(SingletonMixin):
188
+
189
+ @classmethod
190
+ def _singleton_key(cls, foo, bah=3):
191
+ return foo, bah
192
+
193
+ def __init__(self, foo, bah=3):
194
+ if hasattr(self, 'foo'):
195
+ return
196
+ ... normal __init__ stuff here ...
197
+ self.foo = foo
198
+ ...
199
+
200
+ *`SingletonMixin.__hash__(self)`*:
201
+ default hash and equality methods
202
+
203
+ *`SingletonMixin.singleton_also_by(also_key, key)`*:
204
+ Obtain a singleton by a secondary key.
205
+ Return the instance or `None`.
206
+
207
+ Parameters:
208
+ * `also_key`: the name of the secondary key index
209
+ * `key`: the key for the index
210
+
211
+ ## <a name="TrackedClassMixin"></a>Class `TrackedClassMixin`
212
+
213
+ A mixin to track all instances of a particular class.
214
+
215
+ This is aimed at checking the global state of objects of a
216
+ particular type, particularly states like counters. The
217
+ tracking is attached to the class itself.
218
+
219
+ The class to be tracked includes this mixin as a superclass and calls:
220
+
221
+ TrackedClassMixin.__init__(class_to_track)
222
+
223
+ from its __init__ method. Note that `class_to_track` is
224
+ typically the class name itself, not `type(self)` which would
225
+ track the specific subclass. At some relevant point one can call:
226
+
227
+ self.tcm_dump(class_to_track[, file])
228
+
229
+ `class_to_track` needs a `tcm_get_state` method to return the
230
+ salient information, such as this from cs.resources.MultiOpenMixin:
231
+
232
+ def tcm_get_state(self):
233
+ return {'opened': self.opened, 'opens': self._opens}
234
+
235
+ See cs.resources.MultiOpenMixin for example use.
236
+
237
+ *`TrackedClassMixin.tcm_all_state(klass)`*:
238
+ Generator yielding tracking information
239
+ for objects of type `klass`
240
+ in the form `(o,state)`
241
+ where `o` if a tracked object
242
+ and `state` is the object's `get_tcm_state` method result.
243
+
244
+ *`TrackedClassMixin.tcm_dump(klass, f=None)`*:
245
+ Dump the tracking information for `klass` to the file `f`
246
+ (default `sys.stderr`).

+ New public_subclasses(cls) returning all subclasses with public names.
254
+
255
+ *Release 20220918*:
256
+ * SingletonMixin: change example to probe self__dict__ instead of hasattr, faster and less fragile.
257
+ * New Sentinel class for named sentinel objects, equal only to their own instance.
258
+
259
+ *Release 20220530*:
260
+ SingletonMixin: add default __hash__ and __eq__ methods to support dict and set membership.
261
+
262
+ *Release 20210717*:
263

+ *Release 20210131*:
269
+ SingletonMixin: new _singleton_also_indexmap method to return a mapping of secondary keys to values to secondary lookup, _singleton_also_index() to update these indices, _singleton_also_by to look up a secondary index.
