How to add property to a class dynamically?

Question

The goal is to create a mock class which behaves like a db resultset.

So for example, if a database query returns, using a dict expression, {\'ab\':100, \'cd\'

Answer 1

Here is the simple example to create property object programmatically.

#!/usr/bin/python3

class Counter:
    def __init__(self):
        cls = self.__class__
        self._count = 0
        cls.count = self.count_ref()

    def count_get(self):
        print(f'count_get: {self._count}')
        return self._count

    def count_set(self, value):
        self._count = value
        print(f'count_set: {self._count}')

    def count_del(self):
        print(f'count_del: {self._count}')

    def count_ref(self):
        cls = self.__class__
        return property(fget=cls.count_get, fset=cls.count_set, fdel=cls.count_del)

counter = Counter()

counter.count
for i in range(5):
    counter.count = i
del counter.count

'''
output
======
count_get: 0
count_set: 0
count_set: 1
count_set: 2
count_set: 3
count_set: 4
count_del: 4
