Someone wrote : Thank you for your deferred default values idea, which we're now working on together.

Allowing to write: from deferral import deferrable_args, deferred @deferrable_args def f(x, y=2, z=3): return (x,y,z) f(5, deferred, 7) == (5,2,7) (I'd rename "deferrable_args" to simply "deferrable") The api chosen in deferall.py is a deferall.deferred, one could also use None or Ellipsis ? That looks nice : from deferral import elideferrable @elideferrable def f(x, y=2, z=3): return (x,y,z) f(5, ..., 7) == (5, 2, 7) from deferral import nonedeferrable @nonedeferrable def f(x, y=2, z=3): return (x,y,z) f(5, None, 7) == (5, 2, 7) Le mar. 24 juil. 2018 à 14:26, Kyle Lahnakoski <klahnakoski@mozilla.com> a écrit :
I agree this is a problem, which I have seen solved by removing the method signature, which is unfortunate:
def flexible_method(**kwargs): # Read the code to find out the expected parameters
I have an @override decorator to handle this type of pattern. It will perform the null-coalescing with properties found in a special "kwargs" parameter. "kwargs" is assigned a dict that has a copy of the method arguments. The value of a callee's argument is, in order,
* a not None value provided by the caller or * a not None value found in the kwargs dict or * the default value provided by the method declaration or * None
I was not clear on where you wanted to define your defaults. Either like this:
@override def subfunction_1(a=None, b=None, c=None, kwargs=None): return a+b*c
@override def subfunction_2(d=None, e=None, f=None, kwargs=None): return d*e+f
@orverride def main_function(a=2, b=3, c=4, d=5, e=6, f=7, kwargs=None): return subfunction_1(a, b, c) + subfunction_2(d, e, f) return subfunction_1(kwargs) + subfunction_2(kwargs) # IF YOU
WANT TO BE LAZY
or like this:
@override def subfunction_1(a=2, b=3, c=4, kwargs=None): return a+b*c
@override def subfunction_2(d=5, e=6, f=7, kwargs=None): return d*e+f
@orverride def main_function(a=None, b=None, c=None, d=None, e=None, f=None,
kwargs=None):
return subfunction_1(a, b, c) + subfunction_2(d, e, f) return subfunction_1(kwargs) + subfunction_2(kwargs) # IF YOU
WANT TO BE LAZY
both are identical except for where you declare the default values.
