PYSON
=====
PYSON is the Python Statement and Object Notation.
There is also a more :ref:`practical introduction into
PYSON statements <topics-pyson>`.
.. class:: PYSON
Base class of any PYSON statement.
It is never used directly.
Instance methods:
.. method:: PYSON.pyson()
Return the internal dictionary representation of the statement.
.. method:: PYSON.types()
Return a set of all possible types which the statement can become when
evaluated.
Class methods:
.. classmethod:: PYSON.eval(dct, context)
Return the evaluation of the statement given in ``dct`` within the
``context``.
``dct`` contains a dictionary which is the internal representation of a
PYSON statement.
``context`` contains a dictionary with contextual values.
Encoder and Decoder
-------------------
.. class:: PYSONEncoder()
Encoder for PYSON statements into string representations.
Instance methods:
.. method:: PYSONEncoder.encode(object)
Return a string representation of a given PYSON statement.
``object`` contains a PYSON statement.
.. class:: PYSONDecoder([context[, noeval]])
Decoder for string into the evaluated or not PYSON statement.
Instance methods:
.. method:: PYSONDecoder.decode(object)
Return a PYSON statement evaluated or not of a given string.
``object`` contains a string.
Statements
----------
The following classes can be used as :class:`PYSON` statement:
.. contents::
:local:
:backlinks: entry
:depth: 1
Eval
^^^^
.. class:: Eval(value[, default])
Represent the PYSON statement for evaluations.
When evaluated, it returns the value of the statement named by ``value``, if
defined in the evaluation context, otherwise the ``default`` value (empty
string by default).
.. note::
The default value determines the type of the statement.
.. note::
If the ``value`` includes dots the value will be dereferenced.
For example::
Eval('_parent_sale.number')
The ``number`` value of the ``_parent_sale`` key of the evaluation
context will be returned.
Not
^^^
.. class:: Not(value)
Represent the PYSON statement for logical negations.
When evaluated, returns the boolean negation of the value of the statement
named by ``value``, if defined in the evaluation context.
Returns an instance of itself.
Bool
^^^^
.. class:: Bool(value)
Represent the PYSON statement for boolean evaluations.
Returns the boolean representation of the value of the statement named by
``value``.
And
^^^
.. class:: And(\*statements)
Represent the PYSON statement for logical *and* operations.
Returns the result of the logical conjunction of two or more values named by
the statements in the ``statements`` tuple.
Or
^^
.. class:: Or(\*statements)
Represent the PYSON statement for logical *or* operations.
Returns the result of the logical disjunction of two or more values named by
the statements in the ``statements`` tuple.
Equal
^^^^^
.. class:: Equal(statement1, statement2)
Represent the PYSON statement for equation comparisons.
Returns ``True`` when a value of a statement named by ``statement1`` and the
value of a statement named by ``statement2`` are equal, otherwise returns
``False``.
Greater
^^^^^^^
.. class:: Greater(statement1, statement2[, equal])
Represent the PYSON statement for *greater-than* comparisons.
Returns ``True`` when the value of the statement named by ``statement1`` is
strictly greater than the value of the statement named by ``statement2``,
otherwise returns false.
Is the value of the variable named by ``equal`` is ``True``, then returns
also ``True`` when both values of statements named by ``statement1`` and
``statement2`` are equal.
In this case :class:`Greater` works as a *greater-than or equal* operator.
.. note::
``None`` value is replaced by ``0`` for the comparison.
Less
^^^^
.. class:: Less(statement1, statement2[, equal])
Represent the PYSON statement for *less-than* comparisons.
Returns ``True`` when the value of the statement named by ``statement1`` is
strictly less than the value of the statement named by ``statement2``,
otherwise returns ``False``.
Is the value of the variable named ``equal`` is true, then returns also true
when both values of the statements named by ``statement1`` and
``statement2`` are equal.
In this case :class:`Less` works as a *less-than or equal* operator.
.. note::
``None`` value is replaced by ``0`` for the comparison.
If
^^
.. class:: If(condition, then_statement, else_statement)
Represent the PYSON statement for conditional flow control operations.
Returns the value of the statement named by ``then_statement`` when the
value of the statement named by ``condition`` evaluates true.
Otherwise returns the value of the statement named by ``else_statement``.
Get
^^^
.. class:: Get(obj, key[, default])
Represent the PYSON statement for dictionary look-up operations and
evaluation.
Look up and returns the value of a key named by ``key`` in an object named
by ``obj`` if defined.
Otherwise returns the value of the variable named by ``default``.
In
^^
.. class:: In(key, obj)
Represent the PYSON statement for look-up dictionary or integer objects.
Returns true when a list (or dictionary) object named by ``obj`` contains
the value of the variable (or key) named by ``key``.
Otherwise returns false.
Date
^^^^
.. class:: Date([year[, month[, day[, delta_years[, delta_month[, delta_days[, start]]]]]]])
Represent the PYSON statement for date related conversions and basic
calculations.
Returns a date object which represents the values of arguments named by the
*variables* explained below.
Missing values of arguments named by ``year`` or ``month`` or ``day`` take
their defaults from ``start`` or the actual date. When values of arguments
named by ``delta_*`` are given, they are added to the values of the
appropriate arguments in a date and time preserving manner.
Arguments:
``year``
A PYSON statement of type int or long.
``month``
A PYSON statement of type int or long.
``day``
A PYSON statement of type int or long.
``delta_years``
A PYSON statement of type int or long.
``delta_month``
A PYSON statement of type int or long.
``delta_days``
A PYSON statement of type int or long.
``start``
A PYSON statement of type date.
DateTime
^^^^^^^^
.. class:: DateTime([year[, month[, day[, hour[, minute[, second[, microsecond[, delta_years[, delta_months[, delta_days[, delta_hours[, delta_minutes[, delta_seconds[, delta_microseconds[, start]]]]]]]]]]]]]]])
Represent the PYSON statement for date and time related conversions and
calculations.
Returns a date time object which represents the values of variables named by
the *arguments* explained below.
Missing values of arguments named by ``year``, ``month``, ``day``,
``hour``, ``minute``, ``second``, ``microseconds`` take their defaults from
``start`` or the actual date and time in `UTC`_.
When values of arguments named by ``delta_*`` are given, these are added to
the appropriate attributes in a date and time preserving manner.
Arguments:
``year``
A PYSON statement of type int or long.
