|
==============
|
||
|
|
||
|
`PEP 443 <http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0443/>`_ proposed to expose
|
||
|
a mechanism in the ``functools`` standard library module in Python 3.4
|
||
|
that provides a simple form of generic programming known as
|
||
|
single-dispatch generic functions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This library is a backport of this functionality to Python 2.6 - 3.3.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To define a generic function, decorate it with the ``@singledispatch``
|
||
|
decorator. Note that the dispatch happens on the type of the first
|
||
|
argument, create your function accordingly::
|
||
|
|
||
|
>>> from singledispatch import singledispatch
|
||
|
>>> @singledispatch
|
||
|
... def fun(arg, verbose=False):
|
||
|
... if verbose:
|
||
|
... print("Let me just say,", end=" ")
|
||
|
... print(arg)
|
||
|
|
||
|
To add overloaded implementations to the function, use the
|
||
|
``register()`` attribute of the generic function. It is a decorator,
|
||
|
taking a type parameter and decorating a function implementing the
|
||
|
operation for that type::
|
||
|
|
||
|
>>> @fun.register(int)
|
||
|
... def _(arg, verbose=False):
|
||
|
... if verbose:
|
||
|
... print("Strength in numbers, eh?", end=" ")
|
||
|
... print(arg)
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
>>> @fun.register(list)
|
||
|
... def _(arg, verbose=False):
|
||
|
... if verbose:
|
||
|
... print("Enumerate this:")
|
||
|
... for i, elem in enumerate(arg):
|
||
|
... print(i, elem)
|
||
|
|
||
|
To enable registering lambdas and pre-existing functions, the
|
||
|
``register()`` attribute can be used in a functional form::
|
||
|
|
||
|
>>> def nothing(arg, verbose=False):
|
||
|
... print("Nothing.")
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
>>> fun.register(type(None), nothing)
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``register()`` attribute returns the undecorated function which
|
||
|
enables decorator stacking, pickling, as well as creating unit tests for
|
||
|
each variant independently::
|
||
|
|
||
|
>>> @fun.register(float)
|
||
|
... @fun.register(Decimal)
|
||
|
... def fun_num(arg, verbose=False):
|
||
|
... if verbose:
|
||
|
... print("Half of your number:", end=" ")
|
||
|
... print(arg / 2)
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
>>> fun_num is fun
|
||
|
False
|
||
|
|
||
|
When called, the generic function dispatches on the type of the first
|
||
|
argument::
|
||
|
|
||
|
>>> fun("Hello, world.")
|
||
|
Hello, world.
|
||
|
>>> fun("test.", verbose=True)
|
||
|
Let me just say, test.
|
||
|
>>> fun(42, verbose=True)
|
||
|
Strength in numbers, eh? 42
|
||
|
>>> fun(['spam', 'spam', 'eggs', 'spam'], verbose=True)
|
||
|
Enumerate this:
|
||
|
0 spam
|
||
|
1 spam
|
||
|
2 eggs
|
||
|
3 spam
|
||
|
>>> fun(None)
|
||
|
Nothing.
|
||
|
>>> fun(1.23)
|
||
|
0.615
|
||
|
|
||
|
Where there is no registered implementation for a specific type, its
|
||
|
method resolution order is used to find a more generic implementation.
|
||
|
The original function decorated with ``@singledispatch`` is registered
|
||
|
for the base ``object`` type, which means it is used if no better
|
||
|
implementation is found.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To check which implementation will the generic function choose for
|
||
|
a given type, use the ``dispatch()`` attribute::
|
||
|
|
||
|
>>> fun.dispatch(float)
|
||
|
<function fun_num at 0x1035a2840>
|
||
|
>>> fun.dispatch(dict) # note: default implementation
|
||
|
<function fun at 0x103fe0000>
|
||
|
|
||
|
To access all registered implementations, use the read-only ``registry``
|
||
|
attribute::
|
||
|
|
||
|
>>> fun.registry.keys()
|
||
|
dict_keys([<class 'NoneType'>, <class 'int'>, <class 'object'>,
|
||
|
<class 'decimal.Decimal'>, <class 'list'>,
|
||
|
<class 'float'>])
|
||
|
>>> fun.registry[float]
|
||
|
<function fun_num at 0x1035a2840>
|
||
|
>>> fun.registry[object]
|
||
|
<function fun at 0x103fe0000>
|
||
|

Versioning
|
||
|
----------
|
||
|
|
||
|
This backport is intended to keep 100% compatibility with the vanilla
|
||
|
release in Python 3.4+. To help maintaining a version you want and
|
||
|
expect, a versioning scheme is used where:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* the first three numbers indicate the version of Python 3.x from which the
|
||
|
backport is done
|
||
|
|
||
|
* a backport release number is provided after the last dot
|
||
|
|
||
|
For example, ``3.4.0.0`` is the **first** release of ``singledispatch``
|
||
|
compatible with the library found in Python **3.4.0**.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A single exception from the 100% compatibility principle is that bugs
|
||
|
fixed before releasing another minor Python 3.x.y version **will be
|
||
|
included** in the backport releases done in the mean time. This rule
|
||
|
applies to bugs only.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|

Change Log
|
||
|
----------
|
||
|
|
||
|
3.4.0.3
|
||
|
~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
Should now install flawlessly on PyPy as well. Thanks to Ryan Petrello
|
||
|
for finding and fixing the ``setup.py`` issue.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3.4.0.2
|
||
|
~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
Updated to the reference implementation as of 02-July-2013.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* more predictable dispatch order when abstract base classes are in use:
|
||
|
abstract base classes are now inserted into the MRO of the argument's
|
||
|
class where their functionality is introduced, i.e. issubclass(cls,
|
||
|
abc) returns True for the class itself but returns False for all its
|
||
|
direct base classes. Implicit ABCs for a given class (either
|
||
|
registered or inferred from the presence of a special method like
|
||
|
__len__) are inserted directly after the last ABC explicitly listed in
|
||
|
the MRO of said class. This also means there are less "ambiguous
|
||
|
dispatch" exceptions raised.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* better test coverage and improved docstrings
|
||
|
|
||
|
3.4.0.1
|
||
|
~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
Updated to the reference implementation as of 31-May-2013.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* better performance
|
||
|
|
||
|
* fixed a corner case with PEP 435 enums
|
||
|
|
||
|
* calls to `dispatch()` also cached
|
||
|
|
||
|
* dispatching algorithm now now a module-level routine called `_find_impl()`
|
||
|
with a simplified implementation and proper documentation
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `dispatch()` now handles all caching-related activities
|
||
|
|
||
|
* terminology more consistent: "overload" -> "implementation"
|
||
|
|
||
|
3.4.0.0
|
||
|
~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
* the first public release compatible with 3.4.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||

Conversion Process
|
||
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
This section is technical and should bother you only if you are
|
||
|
wondering how this backport is produced. If the implementation details
|
||
|
of this backport are not important for you, feel free to ignore the
|
||
|
following content.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``singledispatch`` is converted using `six
|
||
|
<http://pypi.python.org/pypi/six>`_ so that a single codebase can be
|
||
|
used for all compatible Python versions. Because a fully automatic
|
||
|
conversion was not doable, I took the following branching approach:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* the ``upstream`` branch holds unchanged files synchronized from the
|
||
|
upstream CPython repository. The synchronization is currently done by
|
||
|
manually copying the required code parts and stating from which
|
||
|
CPython changeset they come from. The tests should pass on Python 3.4
|
||
|
on this branch.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* the ``default`` branch holds the manually translated version and this
|
||
|
is where all tests are run for all supported Python versions using
|
||
|
Tox.
