Last update: Dec 5, 2022

Overview

Python Inlay Params

Quick Installation

Using IDE built-in plugin system:

Settings/Preferences > Plugins > Marketplace >
Search for "Python Inlay Params" > Install Plugin
Manually:

Download the latest release and install it manually using Settings/Preferences > Plugins > ⚙️ > Install plugin from disk...

Description

This plugin (quite decently) implements inlay parameter hints for Python.
In addition, you can enable type annotation hints for variables and function return types.

Supported expressions

Pretty much any expression is supported:

dataclass and class instantiation
lambdas
decorators
function and method calls
etc.

Scroll to the demo at the bottom to see how it works.

Settings

Parameter hints

To enable/disable them entirely, follow this path:

Settings -> Editor -> Inlay Hints -> Parameter names -> Python

But you can also switch specific parts in that menu: Class hints, Function hints to enable/disable them individually. Additionally, there's an option to avoid redundant hints more aggressively, called Hide overlaps, which is used to hide a hint if a parameter name is completely overlapped by its argument.

Type annotation hints (BETA)

Partially disabled by default.
To enable/disable them entirely, follow this path:

Settings -> Editor -> Inlay Hints -> Types -> Python

There are two main options under this partition: Type annotations and Function return types.
Look at the demo screenshot below to see them in work (last section).

Comments

Ignore union type hints if expression is BinaryExpression or ConditionalExpression and one of the part of expression is empty LiteralExpression
When we have code like

def __init__(self, value: List[str] = None): value = value or []

In this case we get type hint List[str] | list | None which is not valid expression

Implement type hints tests
To dive deeper into the type hints and refactor their code as we need, tests have become essential. This PR implements them.

Progress

[x] Adjust the CI/CD to run tests automatically

[x] Implement function return types tests
