## Summary
Adds preliminary support for `NamedTuple`s, including:
* No false positives when constructing a `NamedTuple` object
* Correct signature for the synthesized `__new__` method, i.e. proper
checking of constructor calls
* A patched MRO (`NamedTuple` => `tuple`), mainly to make type inference
of named attributes possible, but also to better reflect the runtime
MRO.
All of this works:
```py
from typing import NamedTuple
class Person(NamedTuple):
id: int
name: str
age: int | None = None
alice = Person(1, "Alice", 42)
alice = Person(id=1, name="Alice", age=42)
reveal_type(alice.id) # revealed: int
reveal_type(alice.name) # revealed: str
reveal_type(alice.age) # revealed: int | None
# error: [missing-argument]
Person(3)
# error: [too-many-positional-arguments]
Person(3, "Eve", 99, "extra")
# error: [invalid-argument-type]
Person(id="3", name="Eve")
```
Not included:
* type inference for index-based access.
* support for the functional `MyTuple = NamedTuple("MyTuple", […])`
syntax

```
I uploaded the ecosystem full diff (ignoring the 19k
`no-matching-overload` diagnostics)
[here](https://shark.fish/diff-namedtuple.html).
* There are some new `missing-argument` false positives which come from
the fact that named tuples are often created using unpacking as in
`MyNamedTuple(*fields)`, which we do not understand yet.
* There are some new `unresolved-attribute` false positives, because
methods like `_replace` are not available.
* Lots of the `invalid-argument-type` diagnostics look like true
positives

NamedTuple
NamedTuple is a type-safe way to define named tuples — a tuple where each field can be accessed by
name, and not just by its numeric position within the tuple:
typing.NamedTuple
Basics
from typing import NamedTuple
class Person(NamedTuple):
id: int
name: str
age: int | None = None
alice = Person(1, "Alice", 42)
alice = Person(id=1, name="Alice", age=42)
bob = Person(2, "Bob")
bob = Person(id=2, name="Bob")
reveal_type(alice.id) # revealed: int
reveal_type(alice.name) # revealed: str
reveal_type(alice.age) # revealed: int | None
# TODO: These should reveal the types of the fields
reveal_type(alice[0]) # revealed: Unknown
reveal_type(alice[1]) # revealed: Unknown
reveal_type(alice[2]) # revealed: Unknown
# error: [missing-argument]
Person(3)
# error: [too-many-positional-arguments]
Person(3, "Eve", 99, "extra")
# error: [invalid-argument-type]
Person(id="3", name="Eve")
Alternative functional syntax:
Person2 = NamedTuple("Person", [("id", int), ("name", str)])
alice2 = Person2(1, "Alice")
# TODO: should be an error
Person2(1)
reveal_type(alice2.id) # revealed: @Todo(GenericAlias instance)
reveal_type(alice2.name) # revealed: @Todo(GenericAlias instance)
Multiple Inheritance
Multiple inheritance is not supported for NamedTuple classes:
from typing import NamedTuple
# This should ideally emit a diagnostic
class C(NamedTuple, object):
id: int
name: str
Inheriting from a NamedTuple
Inheriting from a NamedTuple is supported, but new fields on the subclass will not be part of the
synthesized __new__ signature:
from typing import NamedTuple
class User(NamedTuple):
id: int
name: str
class SuperUser(User):
level: int
# This is fine:
alice = SuperUser(1, "Alice")
reveal_type(alice.level) # revealed: int
# This is an error because `level` is not part of the signature:
# error: [too-many-positional-arguments]
alice = SuperUser(1, "Alice", 3)
Generic named tuples
[environment]
python-version = "3.12"
from typing import NamedTuple
class Property[T](NamedTuple):
name: str
value: T
# TODO: this should be supported (no error, revealed type of `Property[float]`)
# error: [invalid-argument-type]
reveal_type(Property("height", 3.4)) # revealed: Property[Unknown]
collections.namedtuple
from collections import namedtuple
Person = namedtuple("Person", ["id", "name", "age"], defaults=[None])
alice = Person(1, "Alice", 42)
bob = Person(2, "Bob")
