soil.utils

This module defines some useful functions

generate_data_structure_ids

def generate_data_structure_ids(fn_name: str, quantity: int) -> List[str]

Generates an id for a datastructure

build_function

def build_function(function: Callable) -> Dict[str, Any]

Mounts the argument structure to serialize a function. It uses the reserved dict key __soil_arg_type to mark a function. The function code must be inside modules or data_structures folders. It recognises 3 types of functions:

* Named functions: `__soil_arg_type='function'` functions with a module and a name.

* Lambda functions: `__soil_arg_type='lambda'` They are not actually serialized but kept as a placeholder

for the pattern matching in the server. They can only be used as a decorator parameter.

* Decorated functions: `__soil_arg_type='decorated'` A function that has been decorated with one or more

decorators that have been decorated with soil.decorator or functions returned by that decorated function.

build_arguments

def build_arguments(args: Any) -> Any

Transforms the module arguments into serializable arguments

generate_transformation

def generate_transformation(input_ids: List[str], output_ids: List[str], fn_name: str, args: Dict[str, Any]) -> Dict[str, Any]

Mounts the dictionary for a module in a plan
