# `Annotated`
|
||||
|
||||
`Annotated` attaches arbitrary metadata to a given type.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usages
|
||||
|
||||
`Annotated[T, ...]` is equivalent to `T`: All metadata arguments are simply ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
```py
|
||||
from typing_extensions import Annotated
|
||||
|
||||
def _(x: Annotated[int, "foo"]):
|
||||
reveal_type(x) # revealed: int
|
||||
|
||||
def _(x: Annotated[int, lambda: 0 + 1 * 2 // 3, _(4)]):
|
||||
reveal_type(x) # revealed: int
|
||||
|
||||
def _(x: Annotated[int, "arbitrary", "metadata", "elements", "are", "fine"]):
|
||||
reveal_type(x) # revealed: int
|
||||
|
||||
def _(x: Annotated[tuple[str, int], bytes]):
|
||||
reveal_type(x) # revealed: tuple[str, int]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Parameterization
|
||||
|
||||
It is invalid to parameterize `Annotated` with less than two arguments.
|
||||
|
||||
```py
|
||||
from typing_extensions import Annotated
|
||||
|
||||
# TODO: This should be an error
|
||||
def _(x: Annotated):
|
||||
reveal_type(x) # revealed: Unknown
|
||||
|
||||
# error: [invalid-type-form]
|
||||
def _(x: Annotated[()]):
|
||||
reveal_type(x) # revealed: Unknown
|
||||
|
||||
# error: [invalid-type-form]
|
||||
def _(x: Annotated[int]):
|
||||
# `Annotated[T]` is invalid and will raise an error at runtime,
|
||||
# but we treat it the same as `T` to provide better diagnostics later on.
|
||||
# The subscription itself is still reported, regardless.
|
||||
# Same for the `(int,)` form below.
|
||||
reveal_type(x) # revealed: int
|
||||
|
||||
# error: [invalid-type-form]
|
||||
def _(x: Annotated[(int,)]):
|
||||
reveal_type(x) # revealed: int
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Inheritance
|
||||
|
||||
### Correctly parameterized
|
||||
|
||||
Inheriting from `Annotated[T, ...]` is equivalent to inheriting from `T` itself.
|
||||
|
||||
```py
|
||||
from typing_extensions import Annotated
|
||||
|
||||
# TODO: False positive
|
||||
# error: [invalid-base]
|
||||
class C(Annotated[int, "foo"]): ...
|
||||
|
||||
# TODO: Should be `tuple[Literal[C], Literal[int], Literal[object]]`
|
||||
reveal_type(C.__mro__) # revealed: tuple[Literal[C], Unknown, Literal[object]]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Not parameterized
|
||||
|
||||
```py
|
||||
from typing_extensions import Annotated
|
||||
|
||||
# At runtime, this is an error.
|
||||
# error: [invalid-base]
|
||||
class C(Annotated): ...
|
||||
|
||||
reveal_type(C.__mro__) # revealed: tuple[Literal[C], Unknown, Literal[object]]
|
||||
```
