[Python-ideas] Re: Creating a class template file generator inside Python language
Are you aware of https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/dataclasses.html? That essentially provides a way to generate the boilerplate without having to put it all in your code.

Just write what you need, instead of writing classes with classes and objects in them, and getters and setters. None of that is necessary (in ANY language), and it exists only because people perpetuate the idea that it's somehow necessary. I think you'll find that Python can be even easier to use than you imagined; start by not writing code, and then you'll find that you can not-debug the code you didn't write, and not-test that non-code, and so on. Fewer lines of code has an exponential cascading benefit in development effort!

If developers are writing classes with lots of getters and setters, they probably think they are writing Java instead of Python. https://dirtsimple.org/2004/12/python-is-not-java.html I think you have done the right thing to put your code on PyPI. We'll wait to see whether people find it useful. -- Steve ___ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/4NAAX4YD4M4T6ESKLQLLXTLEJKU74QZG/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
[Python-ideas] Re: Creating a class template file generator inside Python language
Thanks for the previous mail. I would like to highlight the value my thought offers to the developers. They often have to write classes while writing a module. In the class, they are supposed to write classes and objects. In a class, typically the attributes are private, and we have getters and setters to access and modify them. My thought is to automate the process of creating such class files with command line. For this, I have made my initial attempt to create a module that does so. Here is a short video in which I am demonstrating it. I am also attaching the details of my terminal to get a bit of more details. I am looking forward to hearing from you if I should work on integrating it within the Python Language features, or I should go some other way round, or this is not a very useful tool for many people. *avanishcodes@avanishcodes*:*~*$ echo "No Student.py file here" No Student.py file here*avanishcodes@avanishcodes*:*~*$ ls*Academics* *Documents* *node_modules* *Pictures* *snap* *Videos**bin**Downloads* package.json *Projects* Student.py*Desktop**Music* package-lock.json *Public* *Templates**avanishcodes@avanishcodes*:*~*$ rm Student.py *avanishcodes@avanishcodes*:*~*$ ls*Academics* *Documents* *node_modules* *Pictures* *snap**bin**Downloads* package.json *Projects* *Templates**Desktop**Music* package-lock.json *Public* *Videos**avanishcodes@avanishcodes*:*~*$ pip install classgen Requirement already satisfied: classgen in ./.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages (0.0.7)*avanishcodes@avanishcodes*:*~*$ python3 -m classgen Student member1,member2,member3,member4,member5,member6 Class Student generated successfully.*avanishcodes@avanishcodes*:*~*$ cat Student.py #(class) Student class Student: """ This class is used to represent a Student.
