Properties

type PropertyField = bool | int | float | str | Vector2 | list[bool] | list[int] | list[float] | list[str] | list[Vector2]

class Property

This class defines a property (similar to Python built-in properties), i.e., a pair of getter and setter. In addition, it holds (for auto- documentation) a default value, a description, and the name of the involved types. A property has a value of type PropertyField, which is one of bool, int, float, string, Vector2 or a collection (a vector in C++, a list in Python) thereof. Properties are used to configure sub-classes of HasProperties when using bindings like YAML or Python. Properties values are accessed using the methods exposed by HasProperties.

static make(property: object, default: bool | int | float | str | Vector2 | list[bool] | list[int] | list[float] | list[str] | list[Vector2], description: str = '', schema: Callable | None = None, deprecated_names: list[str] = []) → navground.core.Property

Constructs a navground property from a Python property.

Parameters:

• property (property) – The Python property

• default (navground.core.PropertyField) – The default value, also used to set the type of the property.

• description (str) – Optional description

• schema (typing.Callable[[dict[str, typing.Any]], None]) – Optional schema modifier

• deprecated_names (list[str]) – A list of deprecated names for this property

property default_value

Type:

Union[bool, int, float, str, Vector2, list[bool], list[int], list[float], list[str], list[Vector2]]

The property default value, i.e., the value of the property when the object is initialized.

property deprecated_names

Type:

list[str]

Alternative deprecated names for the property

property description

Type:

str

A textual description of the property, used for auto documentation.

property owner_type_name

Type:

str

The name of the property-owner type.

property readonly

Type:

bool

Whether the property is readonly

property type_name

Type:

str

The name of the property value type, used for auto documentation.

class HasProperties

This class defines set and get methods to access named Property “properties”.

get(name: str) → bool | int | float | str | Vector2 | list[bool] | list[int] | list[float] | list[str] | list[Vector2]

Gets the value of the specified property.

Parameters:

name – The name of the property

Raise:

std::runtime_error A runtime error if no property is found.

Returns:

The value of the property

set(name: str, value: bool | int | float | str | Vector2 | list[bool] | list[int] | list[float] | list[str] | list[Vector2]) → None

Set the value of a named property. Fails silently if no property can be found or if the value has a non-compatible type.

Parameters:

• name – The name of the property

• value – The desired value for the property
