A lightweight extension of functools.partial
Project description
impartial
impartial is a lightweight extension of functools.partial that allows modifying positional and keyword arguments in a functional style.
The main idea is that any function wrapped with impartial
gets a method with_<keyword>(value)
for every keyword argument of that function.
Each with_<keyword>(value)
method returns a new impartial
function with that keyword being modified.
>>> from impartial import impartial
>>> @impartial
... def power(x, exponent):
... return x ** exponent
...
>>> power
impartial(<function power at 0x10d54e790>)
>>> square = power.with_exponent(2) # behaves like functools.partial(square, exponent=2)
>>> square
impartial(<function power at 0x10d54e790>, exponent=2)
>>> square(3)

Features:
- the
with_<keyword>(value)
methods can be arbitrarily chained impartial
functions are immutable: any "modification" of arguments returns a newimpartial
function- very lightweight (~50 LOC and no dependencies)
- fully compatible with functools.partial (
impartial
is a subclass offunctools.partial
) - can be used as a decorator
