How to create abstract properties in python abstract classes

Question

In the following code, I create a base abstract class Base. I want all the classes that inherit from Base to provide the name property

Answer 1

Since Python 3.3 a bug was fixed meaning the property() decorator is now correctly identified as abstract when applied to an abstract method.

Note: Order matters, you have to use @property before @abstractmethod

Python 3.3+: (python docs):

class C(ABC):
    @property
    @abstractmethod
    def my_abstract_property(self):
        ...

Python 2: (python docs)

class C(ABC):
    @abstractproperty
    def my_abstract_property(self):
        ...
