Description
Adding event hooks to an Eve instance produces types errors such as:
by pyright/pylance. The pyright maintainer's advice for such cases is to add a
__setattr__
to such classes which allow dynamic attributes. Doing that here. Note it's behind thetyping.TYPE_CHECKING
guard which makes it have no effect at runtime, thus it only impacts type-checking. I've confirmed this fixes the type errors on pyright.Why care about
pyright
?It's the more correct python type-checker (see official python typing benchmarks). Chances are other type-checkers (most importantly
mypy
) may not fail on this temporarily only due to their lack of coverage.
