Set visibility in pure-python Cython code

Question

one of my major problems with cython cdef classes is that all their variables are by default private. When I am converting some python code to pure-python-mode cython, I have to manually use var_name = cython.declare(type, visibility='public) for every variable.

Is it possible to set all cdef class variables to be public by default? If not, do you consider it a good idea, perhaps for feature request?

Answer 1

Not that immediately springs to mind, but you need to do this with a lot of variables you could just make a wrapper like:

import functools
declare_public = functools.partial(Cython.declare, visibility='public')
