list_avail_routines

list_avail_routines(
    recursive=False, prefix="", abbreviated=False
)

Lists all methods decorated as calc routines.

Methods are resolved as path strings relative to self, including indexing for recursively searched methods within self._objs. When returned back to a parent ListBlock object's call, these strings produce paths that can be resolved back into function calls relative to the parent object. See SingleBlock.list_avail_routines().

This method is usually only used in a recursive call from a SingleBlock object where one of its attributes is a ListBlock.

Example:

mySyn.materals.list_avail_routines(recursive=True)
## returns [
##     'add_weight_pcts',
##     '[0].add_MW',
##     '[1].add_MW',
##     ... 6 total materials with the same calc_routine
##     '[5].add_MW'
## ]

# Resursive call from `SingleBlock` mySyn object:

serialize

serialize(
    clean=False, shallow=False, override_list_type=None
)

Serialize this ListBlock as a list of dictionaries.

Overriding list type is only skipped when all objects in the list have the same list type. To prevent mutation, list type override is performed by calling set_list_type on a copy of this ListBlock and returning the serialized copy.

ListBlocks of length one are always overridden to "explicit".

List Types

• "explicit": Each object declares its own keys.
• "looped": Common keys are declared once at the beginning of a list. Each object specifies values for those keys in the declared order. Anomalous keys are still printed as key:value pairs.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
clean		When True, no FOS format read/write metadata is included in the serial. Recommended for sending output to other formats like JSON.	False
shallow		When True, no recursive serialization occurs. Recommended when serialization is used only to inspect top-level keys for object dictionaries.	False
override_list_type	str | bool	When None (default): Checks for mixed list types and recurses with override set to "explicit" if found. When False: Does not override any list type. This should be avoided for FOS-formatted output unless you know that all objects in the list have the same list type. When str: Copies this ListBlock and passes override to copy.set_list_type before returning the serialized copy	None

        Assign an attribute with validation and controlled namespace behavior.

        Contract:
            `SingleBlock` enforces type correctness and validator execution for
            all public attributes defined for its subclass.

            Required types and validators are mapped by subclass in
            [`parsing.validation`][FoSpy.parsing.validation]

            Comment-mutating methods are attached to every object assigned to an
            attribute. (See
            [`add_comments`][FoSpy.blocks.blocks._add_comments_to_parent])

        Rules:
            1. Private attributes (`_`-prefixed) bypass validation.
            2. Attributes with registered validators are processed through the
            validator before assignment.
            3. Attributes with required types are coerced by calling the type
            constructor when necessary.
            4. Unrecognized attributes can be assigned to a validator mapped to
            an alias in [`parsing.validation`][FoSpy.parsing.validation], using
            the syntax `name="name$alias"`.
            5. Unrecognized attribute names are redirected as attributes of
            `self.ext`.

        Raises:
            ValueError:
                - If a required `SingleBlock` is passed as a list with length > 1.
                - If a block alias cannot be parsed from a key containing `$`.
                - If a block alias is unrecognized.

        Return a recursively serialized `dict` representation of `self`.

        Fully serialized `SingleBlock`s are a single dict that can be passed to
        another constructor or emitted into lines for a FOS file. Serialized
        values at any nest level are either dicts, lists, or strings to allow
        full type-coersion when reconstructing or simplified emission when
        writing files.

        Serialized dict is deep copied to prevent object mutation.

        Args:

            shallow:
                When True, no recursive serialization occurs. Recommended when

        Private attributes starting with "_" are either skipped or unpacked in
        special cases:

        * `_key_order`:
            attributes are added to the serialized dict in the order they
            appear in this list.

        * `_calc_comments`:
            calculated comments are attached to their mapped attribute after
            serialization to avoid mutation of object comments

        * `_calc_routines`:
            A list of functions scheduled to be called right before
            serialization to update _calc_comments. Scheduling calc routines
            ensures that their calculated values are up-to-date.

        * `_meta`:
            attributes of this container are given their own private `_key`s
            mapped by `FoSpy.parsing.syntax.meta_keys` in the serialized
            dict.

        * `_key_overrides`:
            per-instance override mapping that tracks which unexpected
            attributes require $alias suffixes.

        * `_aliases`:
            maps attribute names to alias tags used to emit $alias suffixed
            keys.

        * `_reserved`:
            attribute names in reserved are non-private attributes which
            should *not* be serialized. This usually applies to the `ext`
            attribute or methods attached after construction.

blockDict	dict	An arbitrarily nested dictionary mapping attribute names to values. Unexpected attributes will be assigned under self.ext instead (see SingleBlock.__setattr__). It is possible to pass a blockDict already containing objects, but validation routines will fail if objects are not the correct type.

__setattr__

__setattr__(name, value)

Assign an attribute with validation and controlled namespace behavior.

Contract

SingleBlock enforces type correctness and validator execution for all public attributes defined for its subclass.

Required types and validators are mapped by subclass in parsing.validation

Comment-mutating methods are attached to every object assigned to an attribute. (See add_comments)

Rules

1. Private attributes (_-prefixed) bypass validation.
2. Attributes with registered validators are processed through the validator before assignment.
3. Attributes with required types are coerced by calling the type constructor when necessary.
4. Unrecognized attributes can be assigned to a validator mapped to an alias in parsing.validation, using the syntax name="name$alias".
5. Unrecognized attribute names are redirected as attributes of self.ext.

Raises:

Type	Description
ValueError	If a required SingleBlock is passed as a list with length > 1. If a block alias cannot be parsed from a key containing $. If a block alias is unrecognized. If a template field is found when constructing a non-template subclass.

add_calc_comment

add_calc_comment(key, comment, calc_id)

WARNING: This function can leave outdated calculations in comments after serialization. Recommended to use add_calc_routine() instead.

Calculated comments are for user information and will be formatted to be skipped by the parser when reading the file. This is useful for comments that should be recalculated and refreshed during saving/serialization, like weight percentages or summaries.

serialize

serialize(keepListType=False, shallow=False, clean=False)

Return a recursively serialized dict representation of self.

Fully serialized SingleBlocks are a single dict that can be passed to another constructor or emitted into lines for a FOS file. Serialized values at any nest level are either dicts, lists, or strings to allow full type-coersion when reconstructing or simplified emission when writing files.

Serialized dict is deep copied to prevent object mutation.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
keepListType	bool	When True, maintains its current FOS printing mode (looped keys or explicit key:value lines), instead of explicit default	False
shallow	bool	When True, no recursive serialization occurs. Recommended when serialization is used only to inspect top-level keys.	False
clean	bool	When True, no FOS format read/write metadata is included in the serial. Recommended for sending output to other formats like JSON.	False

Private attributes starting with "_" are either skipped or unpacked in special cases:

• _key_order: attributes are added to the serialized dict in the order they appear in this list.

• _calc_comments: calculated comments are attached to their mapped attribute after serialization to avoid mutation of object comments

• _calc_routines: A list of functions scheduled to be called right before serialization to update _calc_comments. Scheduling calc routines ensures that their calculated values are up-to-date.

• _meta: attributes of this container are given their own private _keys mapped by FoSpy.parsing.syntax.meta_keys in the serialized dict.

• _key_overrides: per-instance override mapping that tracks which unexpected attributes require $alias suffixes.

• _aliases: maps attribute names to alias tags used to emit $alias suffixed keys.

• _reserved: attribute names in reserved are non-private attributes which should not be serialized. This usually applies to the ext attribute or methods attached after construction.
