namedtuple_with_abc.py:
* named tuple mix-in + ABC (abstract base class) recipe,
* works under Python 2.6, 2.7 as well as 3.x.
Import this module to patch collections.namedtuple() factory function
-- enriching it with the 'abc' attribute (an abstract base class + mix-in
for named tuples) and decorating it with a wrapper that registers each
newly created named tuple as a subclass of namedtuple.abc.
How to import:
import collections, namedtuple_with_abc
or:
import namedtuple_with_abc
from collections import namedtuple
# ^ in this variant you must import namedtuple function
# *after* importing namedtuple_with_abc module
or simply:
from namedtuple_with_abc import namedtuple
Simple usage example:
class Credentials(namedtuple.abc):
_fields = 'username password'
def __str__(self):
return ('{0.__class__.__name__}'
'(username={0.username}, password=...)'.format(self))
print(Credentials("alice", "Alice's password"))
For more advanced examples -- see below the "if __name__ == '__main__':".
