如何通过python 3.5输入模块键入提示collections.OrderedDict

Question

I want to use an OrderedDict where the key is a Enum and where the item is a certain class.

How do I use the typing module to hint this? What is the analog to this hinted namedtuple::

Move = typing.NamedTuple('Move', [('actor', Actor), ('location', Location)])

Answer 1

As noted in a comment by AChampion, you can use MutableMapping :

class Actor(Enum):
    # ...Actor enum menbers...

class Location:
    # ...Location class body...

class MapActor2Location(OrderedDict, MutableMapping[Actor, Location]):
    pass

---

Addendum for people like me who haven't used the typing module before: note that the type definitions use indexing syntax ( [T] ) without parentheses. I initially tried something like this:

class MyMap(OrderedDict, MutableMapping([KT, VT])): pass

(Note the extraneous parentheses around [KT, VT] !)

This gives what I consider a rather confusing error:

TypeError: Can't instantiate abstract class MutableMapping with abstract methods __delitem__, __getitem__, __iter__, __len__, __setitem__

Answer 2

The question is about 3.5, but typing.OrderedDict was introduced in the python 3.7.2 . So you can write:

from typing import OrderedDict
Movie = OrderedDict[Actor, Location]

or with backward compatibility workaround suggested by AChampion

try:
    from typing import OrderedDict
except ImportError:
    from typing import MutableMapping
    OrderedDict = MutableMapping
Movie = OrderedDict[Actor, Location]
