This module provides capabilities for type checking function arguments.
Please note that a full type check with this module is not possible, since this is fundamentally not possible due to limitiations of Python itself.
Information about this module can be found here:
Python nowadays is capable of managing type hints for function arguments and return values. Unfortunately Python does not perform type checking automatically. This module provides capabilities of performing type checking automatically.
For more details have a look at the documentation.
This module requires Python 3.7 or later. It can not be used on older releases of Python because of limitations of module typing
.
Type checking is not implemented in pure Python. Therefore it is slower as if the Python interpreter would perform type checking itself. Additionally this module has not yet a complete implementation of all kinds of types. (This will change in the future, maybe with your help.)
For more details have a look at the documentation.
Please include this module into your application using the following code:
import jk_typing
Example:
@checkFunctionSignature(bDebug = True)
def someFunction(a:int, b:str) -> bool:
return str(a) == b
result = someFunction(123, "123")
print(result)
