Factory+Registry pattern for Python classes

Project description

https://github.com/todofixthis/class-registry/actions/workflows/build.yml/badge.svg https://readthedocs.org/projects/class-registry/badge/?version=latest

ClassRegistry

At the intersection of the Registry and Factory patterns lies the ClassRegistry:

  • Define global factories that generate new class instances based on configurable keys.

  • Seamlessly create powerful service registries.

  • Integrate with setuptools’s entry_points system to make your registries infinitely extensible by 3rd-party libraries!

  • And more!

Getting Started

Create a registry using the class_registry.ClassRegistry class, then decorate any classes that you wish to register with its register method:

from class_registry import ClassRegistry

pokedex = ClassRegistry()

@pokedex.register('fire')
class Charizard(Pokemon):
  ...

@pokedex.register('grass')
class Bulbasaur(Pokemon):
  ...

@pokedex.register('water')
class Squirtle(Pokemon):
  ...

To create a class instance from a registry, use the subscript operator:

# Charizard, I choose you!
fighter1 = pokedex['fire']

# CHARIZARD fainted!
# How come my rival always picks the type that my pokémon is weak against??
fighter2 = pokedex['grass']

Advanced Usage

There’s a whole lot more you can do with ClassRegistry, including:

  • Provide args and kwargs to new class instances.

  • Automatically register non-abstract classes.

  • Integrate with setuptools’s entry_points system so that 3rd-party libraries can add their own classes to your registries.

  • Wrap your registry in an instance cache to create a service registry.

  • And more!

For more advanced usage, check out the documentation on ReadTheDocs!

Requirements

ClassRegistry is known to be compatible with the following Python versions:

  • 3.12

  • 3.11

  • 3.10

Installation

Install the latest stable version via pip:

pip install phx-class-registry

Running Unit Tests

Install the package with the test-runner extra to set up the necessary dependencies, and then you can run the tests with the tox command:

pip install -e .[test-runner]
tox -p

To run tests in the current virtualenv:

python -m unittest

Documentation

Documentation is available on ReadTheDocs.

If you are installing from source (see above), you can also build the documentation locally:

  1. Install extra dependencies (you only have to do this once):

    pip install -e '.[docs-builder]'
  2. Switch to the docs directory:

    cd docs
  3. Build the documentation:

    make html

Releases

Steps to build releases are based on Packaging Python Projects Tutorial

1. Build the Project

  1. Install extra dependencies (you only have to do this once):

    pip install -e '.[build-system]'
  2. Delete artefacts from previous builds, if applicable:

    rm dist/*
  3. Run the build:

    python -m build
  4. The build artefacts will be located in the dist directory at the top level of the project.

2. Upload to PyPI

  1. Create a PyPI API token (you only have to do this once).

  2. Increment the version number in pyproject.toml.

  3. Check that the build artefacts are valid, and fix any errors that it finds:

    python -m twine check dist/*
  4. Upload build artefacts to PyPI:

    python -m twine upload dist/*

3. Create GitHub Release

  1. Create a tag and push to GitHub:

    git tag <version>
    git push

    <version> must match the updated version number in pyproject.toml.

  2. Go to the Releases page for the repo.

  3. Click Draft a new release.

  4. Select the tag that you created in step 1.

  5. Specify the title of the release (e.g., ClassRegistry v1.2.3).

  6. Write a description for the release. Make sure to include: - Credit for code contributed by community members. - Significant functionality that was added/changed/removed. - Any backwards-incompatible changes and/or migration instructions. - SHA256 hashes of the build artefacts.

  7. GPG-sign the description for the release (ASCII-armoured).

  8. Attach the build artefacts to the release.

  9. Click Publish release.
