# kadet
Easily define and reuse complex Python objects that serialize into JSON or YAML.
## Example
```python
from kadet import BaseObj
from pprint import pprint
ships = BaseObj()
ships.root.type.container = ["panamax", "suezmax", "post-panamax"]
ships.root.type.carrier = ["conventional", "geared", "gearless"]
ships.root.type.tanker = BaseObj.from_yaml("tankers.yml")
pprint(ships.root)
# output
{'type': {'carrier': ['conventional',
'geared',
'gearless'],
'container': ['panamax',
'suezmax',
'post-panamax'],
'tanker': ['oil', 'liquified-gas', 'chemical']}}
```
## Installation
Install using `pip install kadet`.
## Overview
### BaseObj
BaseObj implements the basic object that serializes into JSON or YAML.
Setting keys in `self.root` means they will be serialized. Keys can be set as an hierarchy of attributes.
The `self.body()` method is reserved for setting self.root on instantiation.
The example below:
```python
class MyApp(BaseObj):
def body(self):
self.root.name = "myapp"
self.root.inner.foo = "bar"
self.root.list = [1, 2, 3]
yaml.dump(MyApp().dump())
```
serializes into:
```yaml
---
name: myapp
inner:
foo: bar
list:
- 1
- 2
- 3
```
The `self.new()` method can be used to define a basic constructor.
`self.need()` checks if a key is set and errors if it isn't (with an optional custom error message).
`self.optional()` sets a key as optional. Use `default` keyword to set default value when not set.
Both `self.new()` and `self.body()` method accept the `istype` keyword to validate value type on runtime.
Supports `typing` types.
`kwargs` that are passed onto a new instance of BaseObj are always accessible via `self.kwargs`
`self.new_with()` is an utility method to call `super().new()` while passing kwargs to the super class.
In this example, MyApp needs `name` and `foo` to be passed as kwargs.
```python
class MyApp(BaseObj):
def new(self):
self.need("name")
self.need("foo", msg="please provide a value for foo")
self.optional("baz")
def body(self):
self.root.name = self.kwargs.name
self.root.inner.foo = self.kwargs.foo
self.root.list = [1, 2, 3]
obj = MyApp(name="myapp", foo="bar")
```
### Setting a skeleton
Defining a large body with Python can be quite hard and repetitive to read and write.
The `self.root_file()` method allows importing a YAML/JSON file to set `self.root`.
MyApp's skeleton can be set instead like this:
```yaml
#skel.yml
---
name: myapp
inner:
foo: bar
list:
- 1
- 2
- 3
```
```python
class MyApp(BaseObj):
def new(self):
self.need("name")
self.need("foo", msg="please provide a value for foo")
self.root_file("path/to/skel.yml")
```
Extending a MyApp's skeleton is possible just by implementing `self.body()`:
```python
class MyApp(BaseObj):
def new(self):
self.need("name")
self.need("foo", msg="please provide a value for foo")
self.root_file("path/to/skel.yml")
def body(self):
self.set_replicas()
self.root.metadata.labels = {"app": "mylabel"}
def set_replicas(self):
self.root.spec.replicas = 5
```
### Inheritance
Python inheritance will work as expected:
```python
class MyOtherApp(MyApp):
def new(self):
super().new() # MyApp's new()
self.need("size")
def body(self):
super().body() # we want to extend MyApp's body
self.root.size = self.kwargs.size
del self.root.list # get rid of "list"
obj = MyOtherApp(name="otherapp1", foo="bar2", size=3)
yaml.dump(obj.dump())
```
serializes to:
```yaml
---
name: otherapp1
inner:
foo: bar2
replicas: 5
size: 3
```
### BaseModel
BaseModel integrates Kadet semantics with [Pydantic](https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic)'s BaseModel together with powerful data validation and type hinting features.
Just like in BaseObj, keys in `self.root` will be serialized, but kwargs is no longer necessary as BaseModel's parameters are set as attributes in `self`.
The `self.body()` method is reserved for setting self.root on instantiation.
The example below:
```python
class Boat(BaseModel):
name: str # Required
length: int # Required
description: str = "I am a boat" # Default description
def body(self):
self.root.name = self.name
self.root.details.length = self.length
self.root.details.description = self.description
print(yaml.dump(Boat(name="Boaty", length=600).dump()))
---
details:
description: I am a boat
length: 600
name: Boaty
```
