Package: typed-format-version
typed-format-version: load format.version.{major,minor} from a structured file.This module tries to parse a format.version "section" in some raw data that
may have been loaded from a configuration file, and determines whether that
section contains valid "major" and "minor" integer values. The caller can
then choose the correct schema to validate the loaded data against, e.g. by
using thetypedloadlibrary with the correct top-level dataclass definition.The most commonly used function will probably beget_version(): it takes
a raw data dictionary and returns aVersionobject with amajorandminorinteger attributes, if the data contained a valid "format" dictionary with
a "version" dictionary within it. Optionally theget_version()function can
remove the top-level "format" member, if a true value is passed for thepopargument.Python examplesLoad some data from a file, make sure it is in the correct format:try:
    raw = json.load(pathlib.Path(cfgfile).open())
    ver = typed_format_version.get_version(raw)
except (OSError, ValueError) as err:
    sys.exit(f"Invalid data format for {cfgfile}: {err}")
if ver.as_version_tuple() != (0, 2):
    sys.exit("Only config format 0.2 supported right now")
cfg = typedload.load(raw, ConfigData)Determine the best version to validate against, allowing more fields to be
added in minor versions that we do not know about yet:SCHEMAS = {
    (0, 1): ConfigTop_0_1,
    (0, 2): ConfigTop_0_2,
    (1, 0): ConfigTop_1_0,
}
try:
    raw = json.load(pathlib.Path(cfgfile).open())
    exact_ver = typed_format_version.get_version(raw)
    mver = typed_format_version.determine_version_match(exact_ver, SCHEMAS)
except (OSError, ValueError) as err:
    sys.exit(f"Invalid data format for {cfgfile}: {err}")

# Either load the data directly...
cfg = typedload.load(raw, SCHEMAS[mver.version], failonextra=mver.failonextra)

# ...or do something with mver.version, possibly examining ver further and
# "upgrading" the loaded configuration from earlier versions by e.g.
# adding default values for fields or reshaping the data.Rust examplesLoad some data from a file, make sure it is in the correct format:use std::fs;
