Could add a Deprecated: section to the doc. This applies to the other methods that are deprecated too.

    Should we use some other variable names for type and format since these clash with Python's built in methods? Does it matter?

    1. It would be nice to, but although it's annoying, this usage isn't technically incorrect, and changing it would require introducing new names with a deprecation cycle. I feel like the whole of the API backend is in need of a rewrite anyway, so I'd rather not touch that for now.

    One of the more confusing aspects of the new typing stuff is that it's hard to tell what's a class-level attribute and what's documentation for an instance-level attribute.

    The pattern I've been doing is to put this before the blocks of instance attributes:

    ######################
    # Instance variables #
    ######################
    

    That way it's very clear where something is supposed to go as code changes, reducing the risks of mixing up class and instance variables.

  7. rbtools/api/client.py (Diff revision 3)
     
     
    Show all issues

    Won't this always end up returning a RootResource or None? I think we should use Optional[RootResource] here.

    Same with the Returns:

    1. This is the abstract adapter that just returns what the transport returns. It's possible that an async transport could return something like an awaitable Future.

    2. Makes sense. The problem's going to be that this bubbles down to the caller. So the caller can't guarantee any type safety on any API resources retrieved.

      With async/await being a thing now, and with only the one backend and all the assumptions around what it returns today, I think maybe we can just assume we get a resource from these. But I know this all needs a rethink anyway.

    3. OK, I'll change them.

    I think we always guarantee a Resource or None from this method as a return type.

  10. rbtools/api/client.py (Diff revision 3)
     
     
     
     
     
    Show all issues

    We don't actually have a return type for this in Transport or SyncTransport. Maybe we should? Do we want to?

    1. Again, the way things are currently designed, it's possible that a future transport could behave differently. I don't love this model but it's what we have for now and I didn't want to worry about redesigning it.
