Basic Examples

Import the package:

In[1]:=
<< KirillBelov`Objects`

Basic syntax:

CreateType[TypeName,ParentTypeName,Constructor,{Field1,"Field2",Field3→3,"Field4"→4}] where: TypeName is Symbol ParentTypeName - is Symbol and TypeQ[ParentTypeName] == True Constructor - any expression that will be applied to TypeName instance like Constructor[instance] Field# - String or symbol or rule with String or Symbol

Create new type called Human. To set properties for a new type you can use strings and symbols also rules with strings and symbols:

Out[2]=

And not we can create some human:

In[3]:=
Kirill = Human[ "Name" -> "Kirill Belov", "Education" -> "Saratov State University", Lang -> "RU", Age :> Now["Year"] - 1992 ]
Out[3]=

All properties of the human are associated with the symbol Human`$11 (or another unique symbol). You can extract the symbol using following code:

In[4]:=
Defer["Self"] /. Normal[Kirill]
Out[4]=

And try to get internal properties:

In[5]:=
Normal[Kirill]
Out[5]=

Also you can extract internal association with special syntax that available for the any type inherited from the Object:

In[6]:=
Kirill /@ Kirill["Properties"]
Out[6]=

Also you can get property names:

In[7]:=
Kirill["Properties"]
Out[7]=

Autocomletion works by default for the symbol associated with the object:

Anoter way to get available property is:

In[8]:=
Kirill@Name
Out[8]=

Also you can use this way with internal objects and association. For example let's add the child:

In[9]:=
Kirill@Child = Human[Name -> "Zlata", "Age" -> 2, Icon -> Style["👧", 28], Lang -> "RU"]
Out[9]=

And now Kirill object looks like:

In[10]:=
Kirill["Self"]
Out[10]=

You can get the name of the child:

In[11]:=
Kirill[Child, Name]
Out[11]=

Also you can set any property:

In[12]:=
Kirill["Child", "Name"] = "Zlata Belova"
Out[12]=

And now Zlata looks like:

In[13]:=
Kirill[Child, "Self"]
Out[13]=

And with associations too:

In[14]:=
Kirill[Child, Toys] = <||>
Out[14]=

And set one toy:

In[15]:=
Kirill[Child, "Self"]
Out[15]=
In[16]:=
Kirill[Child, Toys, Dog] = "Robert"
Out[16]=

And another toy:

In[17]:=
Kirill[Child, Toys, Cat] = "Jessica"
Out[17]=

And the result:

In[18]:=
Kirill[Child, "Self"]
Out[18]=

Define method that will be work only for Human type:

In[19]:=
sayHi[human_Human] ^:= Print[StringTemplate["Hi! My name is `1`"][human["Name"]]]

Check this method:

In[20]:=
sayHi[Kirill]

Create new type from Human as parent type:
