*attrs* is the Python package that will bring back the **joy** of **writing classes** by relieving you from the drudgery of implementing object protocols (aka [dunder methods](https://www.attrs.org/en/latest/glossary.html#term-dunder-methods)).
[Trusted by NASA](https://docs.github.com/en/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/customizing-your-profile/personalizing-your-profile#list-of-qualifying-repositories-for-mars-2020-helicopter-contributor-achievement) for Mars missions since 2020!

Its main goal is to help you to write **concise** and **correct** software without slowing down your code.


## Sponsors

*attrs* would not be possible without our [amazing sponsors](https://github.com/sponsors/hynek).
Especially those generously supporting us at the *The Organization* tier and higher:

## Example

*attrs* gives you a class decorator and a way to declaratively define the attributes on that class:

<!-- code-begin -->

```pycon
>>> from attrs import asdict, define, make_class, Factory

>>> @define
... class SomeClass:
...     a_number: int = 42
...     list_of_numbers: list[int] = Factory(list)
...
...     def hard_math(self, another_number):
...         return self.a_number + sum(self.list_of_numbers) * another_number


>>> sc = SomeClass(1, [1, 2, 3])
>>> sc
SomeClass(a_number=1, list_of_numbers=[1, 2, 3])

>>> sc.hard_math(3)
19
>>> sc == SomeClass(1, [1, 2, 3])
True
>>> sc != SomeClass(2, [3, 2, 1])
True

>>> asdict(sc)
{'a_number': 1, 'list_of_numbers': [1, 2, 3]}

>>> SomeClass()
SomeClass(a_number=42, list_of_numbers=[])

>>> C = make_class("C", ["a", "b"])
>>> C("foo", "bar")
C(a='foo', b='bar')
```

After *declaring* your attributes, *attrs* gives you:

- a concise and explicit overview of the class's attributes,
- a nice human-readable `__repr__`,
- equality-checking methods,
- an initializer,
- and much more,

*without* writing dull boilerplate code again and again and *without* runtime performance penalties.

**Hate type annotations**!?
No problem!
Types are entirely **optional** with *attrs*.
Simply assign `attrs.field()` to the attributes instead of annotating them with types.

---

This example uses *attrs*'s modern APIs that have been introduced in version 20.1.0, and the *attrs* package import name that has been added in version 21.3.0.
The classic APIs (`@attr.s`, `attr.ib`, plus their serious-business aliases) and the `attr` package import name will remain **indefinitely**.

Please check out [*On The Core API Names*](https://www.attrs.org/en/latest/names.html) for a more in-depth explanation.


## Data Classes

On the tin, *attrs* might remind you of `dataclasses` (and indeed, `dataclasses` [are a descendant](https://hynek.me/articles/import-attrs/) of *attrs*).
In practice it does a lot more and is more flexible.
For instance it allows you to define [special handling of NumPy arrays for equality checks](https://www.attrs.org/en/stable/comparison.html#customization), allows more ways to [plug into the initialization process](https://www.attrs.org/en/stable/init.html#hooking-yourself-into-initialization), and allows for stepping through the generated methods using a debugger.

## Release Information

### Changes

- The type annotation for `attrs.resolve_types()` is now correct.
  [#1141](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1141)
- Type stubs now use `typing.dataclass_transform` to decorate dataclass-like decorators, instead of the non-standard `__dataclass_transform__` special form, which is only supported by Pyright.
  [#1158](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1158)
- Fixed serialization of namedtuple fields using `attrs.asdict/astuple()` with `retain_collection_types=True`.
  [#1165](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1165)
- `attrs.AttrsInstance` is now a `typing.Protocol` in both type hints and code.
  This allows you to subclass it along with another `Protocol`.
  [#1172](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1172)
- If *attrs* detects that `__attrs_pre_init__` accepts more than just `self`, it will call it with the same arguments as `__init__` was called.
  This allows you to, for example, pass arguments to `super().__init__()`.
  [#1187](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1187)
- Slotted classes now transform `functools.cached_property` decorated methods to support equivalent semantics.
  [#1200](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1200)
- Added *class_body* argument to `attrs.make_class()` to provide additional attributes for newly created classes.
  It is, for example, now possible to attach methods.
  [#1203](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1203)
