Libcomps unioning policy¶
Object Unioning¶
Complex Object unioning policy¶
Two libcomps.Comps object can be unioned into one by __add__ operator like o = o1 + o2. This operator can be applicated on libcomps.Category libcomps.Group, libcomps.Environment
New object have all properties of first operand (o1). If there’s some properties in second operand(o2) overlaying first operand properties, theese properties will be overwritten in result (o) by second operand properties (o2).
Inner list and dict objects are unioned by rules bellow
List Object unioning policy¶
libcomps list objects are unioned by Append-Replace-Append policy. That means:
all items from first list is appended to result list
if there’s some item in second list which is equal some item in result list, item in result list will be overwritten by item from second list(position of item in result list remans same!).
rest of items in second list is appeneded in second list order to result list
List items are compared by id attribute (group, category, evinronment) or by name attribute (package, groupid)
Dict Object unioning policy¶
Unioning two libcomps dict objects means that result will have all (key,value) pair from first dict, overlaied pair with second dict is overwritten and rest of pairs from second dist is set to result dict. (All libcomps dict have inner alphabetical order!)
Examples¶
c1 = libcomps.Category()
c1.id = "c1"
c1.desc = "category 1"
c1.group_list.append("groupid1")
c2.group_list.append("groupid3")
c2 = libcomps.Category()
c2.id = "c2"
c2.group_list.append("groupid2")
c2.group_list.append("groupid3")
c = c1 + c2
print c.id
>>> c2
print c.description
>>> category 1
print c.group_list
>>> <COMPS_DocGroupId name='g1' default='False'>,
<COMPS_DocGroupId name='g2' default='False'>,
<COMPS_DocGroupId name='g3' default='False'>]
cl1 = libcomps.CategoryList()
cl2 = libcomps.CategoryList()
c1 = libcomps.Category(id="c1")
c1.group_ids.append("gid1 1")
c1.group_ids.append("gid1 2")
c3 = libcomps.Category(id="c3")
c3.group_ids.append("gid3 1")
c3.group_ids.append("gid3 2")
c4 = libcomps.Category(id="c4")
c2 = libcomps.Category(id="c2")
c2.group_ids.append("gid2 1")
c2.group_ids.append("gid2 2")
cl1.append(c1)
cl1.append(c2)
cl1.append(c3)
cl1.append(c4)
c5 = libcomps.Category(id="c5")
c3 = libcomps.Category(id="c3")
c3.group_ids.append("gid3 1")
c3.group_ids[0].default = True
c6 = libcomps.Category(id="c6")
c2 = libcomps.Category(id="c4")
c2.group_ids.append("gid2 1")
c2.group_ids.append("gid2 3")
cl2.append(c2)
cl2.append(c3)
cl2.append(c5)
cl2.append(c6)
cl = cl1 + cl2
ids = [x.id for x in cl]
print ids
>>> [u'c1', u'c2', u'c3', u'c4', u'c5', u'c6']
print cl["c2"].name
>>> c2_2
print cl["c2"].group_ids
>>> [<COMPS_DocGroupId name='gid2 1' default='False'>,
<COMPS_DocGroupId name='gid2 1' default='False'>]
print cl["c3"].name
>>> c3_2
print cl["c3"].group_ids
>>> [<COMPS_DocGroupId name='gid3 1' default='True'>,
<COMPS_DocGroupId name='gid3 2' default='False'>]
