After some playing around, I figured out a pattern that works without any changes to the implementations of `dataclass` or `Enum`, and I like this because it keeps the 2 kinds of concern separate. Maybe I'll try submitting an MR to add an example like this to the documentation for `Enum`.
In [1]: from dataclasses import dataclass In [2]: from enum import Enum In [3]: @dataclass(frozen=True) ...: class CreatureDataMixin: ...: size: str ...: legs: int ...: In [4]: class Creature(CreatureDataMixin, Enum): ...: BEETLE = ('small', 6) ...: DOG = ('medium', 4) ...: In [5]: Creature.DOG Out[5]: Creature(size='medium', legs=4) _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/G2VALQ4RIVFKIOKVW4XZAHZMLSZWL2XS/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
