Welcome to xotl.tools’s documentation!

Collection of disparate utilities.

xotl.tools is essentially an extension to the Python’s standard library, it does not make up a full framework, but it’s very useful to be used from a diversity of scenarios.

What’s new in 2.1.11+3.ga07ce322

This release marks the last release of the series of 2.1.x. We simply don’t have the manpower to keep many branches at the same time.

• Implement xotl.tools.objects.memoized_property using functools.cached_property in Python 3.8+.

• Implement xotl.tools.objects.classproperty by composing classmethod and property in Python 3.9+.

• Update xotl.tools.modules.moduleproperty() to call __set_name__ on the base property if available.

• Comparing quantities of different dimensions (xotl.tools.dim) no longer raises a TypeError, but returns NotImplemented.

  For == this means that Python will return False. For other comparison operators (<, <=, etc.), if Python cannot reverse the operation, it raises a TypeError.

• Deprecates module xotl.tools.cli. This module hasn’t been maintained for long and there are better alternatives in out there (e.g click).

• Correct the name of xotl.tools.dim.base.Pressure, previously it was mistyped missing as Presure.
