I think you might find this interesting if you don't already know, but you can define class variables while using @dataclass. You just need to import ClassVar from typing and then when you are defining the class variables, use ClassVar after the colon and then put square brackets and the datatype of the class variable. I think this feature was mentioned in the documentation and also Tech with Tim channel helped me realise this. Great Video! Cheers.

I started programming "casually" in the 80's with C, Pascal, Assembler, then Perl and now Python. I really enjoyed C and Perl, but Python is by far my favorite now. This is the first video I've seen of yours and based on that I just subscribed to your channel. I enjoy your style and explanations and I don't have to play the video at twice the speed waiting for you to get to the point. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your Python videos.

if you use init=False, the repr=False should be implicit. Because if not the repr generated is invalid, because repr should generate an object equal to the original if you copy and paste it. Also you forgot to mention that if you use slots you cant not add attributes in runtime to your object

I think it's better to have more in depths Python video's like this one instead of trying to limit your options. I mean if you search for Python you will find 1000's of "Hello World" Tutorials, some "How To's" but little technical explanation of the language it self like your video. I believe that if you can learn to master the language you can also master the challenges a language gives you. But since most Python programmers are "Self taught programmers" their knowledge is mostly limited to the sources they managed to learn from. Knowing the functions or having a list of the language API it self is not enough. Some examples of use cases like your video are very welcome. Thanks!

Hi Arjan. Great video, very well presented. I've just found your channel and will be watching all your videos as time permits. I'm a retired software engineer (started back in the early 80's). 5 weeks ago I decided, in my retirement, to switch back to linux (and python - which I have never used), just for fun, after 25 years in microsoft products (prior to that I was in the Unix world). I'll be changing 2 of my classes to data classes ASAP. I have just read your Software Design Guide and agree with much of what you've written. I think you have glossed over the most important aspect "Who’s it intended for?". Determining who is doing what, why they do it and what they expect from it and then managing the expectations is the key to a successful implementation. You do mention your “zoom out and zoom in” approach which probably encompasses this but in my planning, the people are the key and if there are problems in this area it can be very costly down the track (we qualified our prospective clients and if the people problem was too great we walked away from deals), as you say we write the code for the client, not for us. Thanks

I use similar thing when working with fastapi, library named SQLModel, what it basicaly is very similar to dataclass, but it has validation from pydantic, so if you, say assign to person with a name type int, like Person(name=1), then you get ValidationError exception. It is more useful in fastapi as it may be used as a mechanism to prevent API being called and executed if provided arguments are not match. And you can have more validation methods in Field, like: le, ge, lt, gt; for list types you may provide min/max range, for strings you may add regex or even something more custom via function. I like it a bit more than just dataclass

Great video Arjan! Learned quite some new things even though I regularly use dataclasses. One suggestion which I encounter quite often in data science: Where and when to properly calculate additional properties (features for my models) after first initialization when there are dependencies between multiple objects, e.g, you have to wait for both to finish initialization, then calculate features. I'm currently working with a hirarchy of dataclasses and calculate these properties in the top level in __post_init__ but am unsure if that's the best way. Thanks!

Hey man, cool video! I saw that when you set frozen=True, you got an error in the __post_init__ (not in the main). Is there a way to use __post_init__ for frozen dataclasses?
@funkenjoyer2 жыл бұрын
I ran into this issue some time ago, apparently u can't do it directly since that would require you to change the object which is prohibited by the frozen=True statement (according to documentation __setattr__ and __delattr__ methods are added which will throw the error). But u can get around that using object.__setattr__(self, 'field_name', field_value) which is whats happening in the __init__ anyways (i guess it circumvents the __setattr__ method defined in class and calls the definition directly from the object class)

I was just on this issue too... I don't know mate, it seems that python is trying too hard to add features which it was not well planned to and we are ending up with so many esoteric rules/details that learning python by anything other than reading books on "how to adhere to the pre-defined rules/standards of keywords" will soon be impossible..
@ArjanCodes2 жыл бұрын
I would actually use a different approach altogether if you want a frozen dataclass, but still would like to have a search string like in the example in the video (didn't have time to cover this because the video was already quite long). I wouldn't store the search string in an instance variable, but use a property instead. It would mean that you need to compute the search string on the fly every time though, so it might not be the preferred solution if you need to access it often, but I think it is a lot cleaner than circumventing attribute assignment using __setattr__.

Cool video, thanks for it. I think that I would argue that if there are valid arguments against multiple inheritance (and valid arguments in favor of it), the limitations of an oriented object language should not be considered one. To make Python better we have to stop defending the poor design choices that were made in the past and move forward (I'm all in favor of breaking things if I can finally write def myfunc(myarg=[]) like in any other language, for example).

13:30 It seems like the error is due to the assignment in the initialization of the object (assignment to "_search_string" in "__post_init__"). I encountered the same problem, and was baffled why it didn't work for me, but then I noticed it didn't work for you either. It seems that you cannot do it even in the initializer ("__init__"). You can hack your way around it by doing "object.__setattr__(self, '_search_string', f'{self.name} {self.address}')".
