Hi. I am working on a kinda-ORM library, which usage often implies to request
data within specific ranges:
Foobar.search(
attr1="foo",
attr2=gt(10),
attr3=between(42, 50)
)
The use of "gt" or "between" methods to describe those operations feels a bit
cumbersome (as it is long to write, and you need to import those functions in a
lot of files), and I though it could be more pythonic to use slices instead.
Foobar.search(
attr1="foo",
attr2=slice(10),
attr3=slice(42, 50)
)
I suggest an alternative way to instanciate slices, that would look like this:
Foobar.search(
attr1="foo",
attr2=[10:],
attr3=[42:50]
)
What do you think?
