Instance Methods

__init__(self, value, data_type)
Create a new Property with a value and data type.

data_type(self)
Get data type name.

__iter__(self)
Get a set of possible values for this property.

__bool__(self)
Get the value of the property as a boolean (Python 3.x)

__nonzero__(self)

__int__(self)
Get the value of the property as an integer.

__str__(self)
Get the value of the property as a string.

__eq__(self, other)
Opposite to __ne__()

__ne__(self, other)
Compare two instances of this class.

Inherited from object: __delattr__, __format__, __getattribute__, __hash__, __new__, __reduce__, __reduce_ex__, __repr__, __setattr__, __sizeof__, __subclasshook__

Static Methods

normalize_string(possible_unicode_str)
Return a string representation of the parameter passed, encoding as UTF-8 in case of encoding error and replacing accented by unaccented characters.

list_to_normalized_string(lst)

Method Details

init(self, value, data_type)
(Constructor)

Create a new Property with a value and data type.

Parameters:

value - The value to store.
data_type - The type of the value to store. Data types are defined in class DataType.

Overrides: object.__init__

data_type(self)

Get data type name. It returns a String with the data type name

iter(self)

Get a set of possible values for this property. This is typically only used when it is known that a given property name can have multiple possible values. All items in the set will have the same data type. It returns the array value of the property.

str(self)
(Informal representation operator)

Get the value of the property as a string. If a property has multiple possible values then the values are concatenated with a comma.

Overrides: object.__str__

ne(self, other)

Compare two instances of this class. If both have equal values and data type then returns False.

normalize_string(possible_unicode_str)
Static Method

Return a string representation of the parameter passed, encoding as UTF-8 in case of encoding error and replacing accented by unaccented characters.

Parameters:

possible_unicode_str
