0x0C. Python - Almost a circle

By Guillaume

Background Context

The AirBnB project is a big part of the Higher level curriculum. This project will help you be ready for it.

In this project, you will review everything about Python:

Import
Exceptions
Class
Private attribute
Getter/Setter
Class method
Static method
Inheritance
Unittest
Read/Write file

You will also learn about:

args and kwargs
Serialization/Deserialization
JSON

Resources

Read or watch:

Learning Objectives

At the end of this project, you are expected to be able to explain to anyone, without the help of Google:

General

What is Unit testing and how to implement it in a large project
How to serialize and deserialize a Class
How to write and read a JSON file
What is *args and how to use it
What is **kwargs and how to use it
How to handle named arguments in a function

Requirements

Python Scripts

Allowed editors: vi, vim, emacs
All your files will be interpreted/compiled on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS using python3 (version 3.8.5)
All your files should end with a new line
The first line of all your files should be exactly #!/usr/bin/python3
A README.md file, at the root of the folder of the project, is mandatory
Your code should use the pycodestyle (version 2.7.*)
All your files must be executable
The length of your files will be tested using wc
All your modules should be documented: python3 -c 'print(__import__("my_module").__doc__)'
All your classes should be documented: python3 -c 'print(__import__("my_module").MyClass.__doc__)'
All your functions (inside and outside a class) should be documented: python3 -c 'print(__import__("my_module").my_function.__doc__)' and python3 -c 'print(__import__("my_module").MyClass.my_function.__doc__)'
A documentation is not a simple word, it's a real sentence explaining what's the purpose of the module, class or method (the length of it will be verified)

Python Unit Tests

Allowed editors: vi, vim, emacs
All your files should end with a new line
All your test files should be inside a folder tests
You have to use the unittest module
All your test files should be python files (extension: .py)
All your test files and folders should start with test_
Your file organization in the tests folder should be the same as your project: ex: for models/base.py, unit tests must be in: tests/test_models/test_base.py
All your tests should be executed by using this command: python3 -m unittest discover tests
You can also test file by file by using this command: python3 -m unittest tests/test_models/test_base.py
We strongly encourage you to work together on test cases so that you don't miss any edge case

Tasks

0. If it's not tested it doesn't work

mandatory

All your files, classes and methods must be unit tested and be PEP 8 validated.

1. Base class

mandatory

Write the first class Base:

Create a folder named models with an empty file __init__.py inside - with this file, the folder will become a Python package

Create a file named models/base.py:

Class Base:
- private class attribute __nb_objects = 0
- class constructor: def __init__(self, id=None)::
  - if id is not None, assign the public instance attribute id with this argument value - you can assume id is an integer and you don't need to test the type of it
  - otherwise, increment __nb_objects and assign the new value to the public instance attribute id

This class will be the "base" of all other classes in this project. The goal of it is to manage id attribute in all your future classes and to avoid duplicating the same code (by extension, same bugs)

    b3 = Base()
    print(b3.id)

    b4 = Base(12)

2. First Rectangle

mandatory

Write the class Rectangle that inherits from Base:

In the file models/rectangle.py
Class Rectangle inherits from Base
Private instance attributes, each with its own public getter and setter:
- __width -> width
- __height -> height
- __x -> x
- __y -> y
Class constructor: def __init__(self, width, height, x=0, y=0, id=None):
- Call the super class with id - this super call with use the logic of the __init__ of the Base class
- Assign each argument width, height, x and y to the right attribute

Why private attributes with getter/setter? Why not directly public attribute?

Because we want to protect attributes of our class. With a setter, you are able to validate what a developer is trying to assign to a variable. So after, in your class you can "trust" these attributes.

9. Update #1

mandatory

Update the class Rectangle by updating the public method def update(self, *args): by changing the prototype to update(self, *args, **kwargs) that assigns a key/value argument to attributes:

**kwargs can be thought of as a double pointer to a dictionary: key/value
- As Python doesn't have pointers, **kwargs is not literally a double pointer -- describing it as such is just a way of explaining its behavior in terms you're already familiar with
**kwargs must be skipped if *args exists and is not empty
Each key in this dictionary represents an attribute to the instance

This type of argument is called a "key-worded argument". Argument order is not important.

10. And now, the Square!

mandatory

Write the class Square that inherits from Rectangle:

In the file models/square.py
Class Square inherits from Rectangle
Class constructor: def __init__(self, size, x=0, y=0, id=None)::
- Call the super class with id, x, y, width and height - this super call will use the logic of the __init__ of the Rectangle class. The width and height must be assigned to the value of size
- You must not create new attributes for this class, use all attributes of Rectangle - As reminder: a Square is a Rectangle with the same width and height
- All width, height, x and y validation must inherit from Rectangle - same behavior in case of wrong data
The overloading __str__ method should return [Square] (<id>) <x>/<y> - <size> - in our case, width or height

As you know, a Square is a special Rectangle, so it makes sense this class Square inherits from Rectangle. Now you have a Square class who has the same attributes and same methods.

11. Square size

mandatory

Update the class Square by adding the public getter and setter size

The setter should assign (in this order) the width and the height - with the same value

18. Dictionary to Instance

mandatory

Update the class Base by adding the class method def create(cls, **dictionary): that returns an instance with all attributes already set:

**dictionary can be thought of as a double pointer to a dictionary
To use the update method to assign all attributes, you must create a "dummy" instance before:
- Create a Rectangle or Square instance with "dummy" mandatory attributes (width, height, size, etc.)
- Call update instance method to this "dummy" instance to apply your real values
You must use the method def update(self, *args, **kwargs)
**dictionary must be used as **kwargs of the method update
You are not allowed to use eval

19. File to instances

mandatory

Update the class Base by adding the class method def load_from_file(cls): that returns a list of instances:

The filename must be: <Class name>.json - example: Rectangle.json
If the file doesn't exist, return an empty list
Otherwise, return a list of instances - the type of these instances depends on cls (current class using this method)
You must use the from_json_string and create methods (implemented previously)

20. JSON ok, but CSV?

#advanced

Update the class Base by adding the class methods def save_to_file_csv(cls, list_objs): and def load_from_file_csv(cls): that serializes and deserializes in CSV:

The filename must be: <Class name>.csv - example: Rectangle.csv
Has the same behavior as the JSON serialization/deserialization
Format of the CSV:
- Rectangle: <id>,<width>,<height>,<x>,<y>
- Square: <id>,<size>,<x>,<y>

21. Let's draw it

#advanced

Update the class Base by adding the static method def draw(list_rectangles, list_squares): that opens a window and draws all the Rectangles and Squares:

You must use the Turtle graphics module
To install it: sudo apt-get install python3-tk
To make the GUI available outside your vagrant machine, add this line in your Vagrantfile: config.ssh.forward_x11 = true
No constraints for color, shape etc... be creative!

guillaume@ubuntu:~/$ cat 101-main.py
#!/usr/bin/python3

    list_squares = [Square(35), Square(15, 70, 50), Square(80, 30, 70)]

    Base.draw(list_rectangles, list_squares)

guillaume@ubuntu:~/$ ./101-main.py
....

Uncommented line in /etc/ssh/ssh_config that said # ForwardX11 no and change no to yes.
Then added line config.ssh.forward_agent = true to my Vagrantfile in addition to config.ssh.forward_x11 = true.
Halted my vm with vagrant halt and started it back up with vagrant up --provision then vagrant ssh.
If you get an error that looks like /usr/bin/xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/vagrant/.Xauthority, then enter rm .Xauthority (you may have to sudo).
Logout and restart the vm with vagrant up --provision.
Test with xeyes. If Xquartz is installed on the Mac OS it should open in an Xquartz window.

It is your responsibility to request a review for this task from a peer before the project's deadline. If no peers have been reviewed, you should request a review from a TA or staff member.
