Description
Problem:
I am writing a python application, and I made a function that creates an object and passes its additional*args
and**kwargs
to object's constructor and takes few its own arguments. I want to make*args
and**kwargs
typed exactly as inner function's arguments.
Description and examples:
A simple example with two functions:
definner(a:int,b:int)->None: ...defwrapper(arg1:str,*args,**kwargs)->None:inner(*args,**kwargs)# It will automatically detect passing arguments to another function
In my case,inner
is object constructor, I gave an example with functions to make it more simple.
Type checkers should seewrapper
's signature like this:
defwrapper(arg1:str,a:int,b:int): ...
It may be enabled by default when passing*args
and**kwargs
to another function is detected or it may be enabled by adding a decorator to the function.
