Stub for time.gmtime() looks incorrect #3286
Description
Activity
First reported as python/mypy#7588.
This is painful.
The implementation in Python produces a magical object that unpacks as a 9-tuple but has two additional fields (
tm_zone,tm_gmtoff) that are only accessible by name. I'm not even sure how to express that in a typing stub.The best I can think of is to make a class that inherits from a
NamedTuplewith 9 fields and then adds the two additional fields. Something likeclass N(NamedTuple): tm_year: int # etc class struct_tm(N): tm_zone: str tm_gmtoff: int
But pick a better name than
Nand handle the version-specific code in time.pyi.PR welcome!
I think we can add the additional fields with
@property.
The following code:
produces the following output:
reveal_type(gmtime)produces the following output:Revealed type is 'def (secs: Union[builtins.float, None] =) -> Tuple[builtins.int, builtins.int, builtins.int, builtins.int, builtins.int, builtins.int, builtins.int, builtins.int, builtins.int, builtins.str, builtins.int, fallback=time.struct_time]
