I have a method with n parameters. I want to set all the default parameter value to None
, eg:
def x(a=None,b=None,c=None.......z=None):
Is there any built in method to set all the parameter values to None at once if they are not set default to None while writing the method?
For a plain function, you can set __defaults__
:
def foo(a, b, c, d):
print (a, b, c, d)
# foo.__code__.co_varnames is ('a', 'b', 'c', 'd')
foo.__defaults__ = tuple(None for name in foo.__code__.co_varnames)
foo(b=4, d=3) # prints (None, 4, None, 3)
If you literally want to add None
as default to every argument you need some sort of decorator approach. If it's only about Python 3 then inspect.signature
can be used:
def function_arguments_default_to_None(func):
# Get the current function signature
sig = inspect.signature(func)
# Create a list of the parameters with an default of None but otherwise
# identical to the original parameters
newparams = [param.replace(default=None) for param in sig.parameters.values()]
# Create a new signature based on the parameters with "None" default.
newsig = sig.replace(parameters=newparams)
def inner(*args, **kwargs):
# Bind the passed in arguments (positional and named) to the changed
# signature and pass them into the function.
arguments = newsig.bind(*args, **kwargs)
arguments.apply_defaults()
return func(**arguments.arguments)
return inner
@function_arguments_default_to_None
def x(a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r,s,t,u,v,w,x,y,z):
print(a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r,s,t,u,v,w,x,y,z)
x()
# None None None None None None None None None None None None None None
# None None None None None None None None None None None None
x(2)
# 2 None None None None None None None None None None None None None
# None None None None None None None None None None None None
x(q=3)
# None None None None None None None None None None None None None None
# None None 3 None None None None None None None None None
However that way you will loose introspection for the function because you manually altered the signature.
But I suspect that there are probably better way to solve the problem or avoiding the problem completely.
