PyGlove: A library for manipulating Python objects.
Getting started | Installation | Examples | Reference docs
PyGlove is a general-purpose library for Python object manipulation. It introduces symbolic object-oriented programming to Python, allowing direct manipulation of objects that makes meta-programs much easier to write. It has been used to handle complex machine learning scenarios, such as AutoML, as well as facilitating daily programming tasks with extra flexibility.
PyGlove is lightweight and has very few dependencies beyond the Python interpreter. It provides:
It's commonly used in:
PyGlove has been published at NeurIPS 2020. It is widely used within Alphabet, including Google Research, Google Cloud, Youtube and Waymo.
PyGlove is developed by Daiyi Peng and colleagues in Google Brain Team.

self._greeting = f'Hello, {subject}!'

print(self._greeting)

hello.greet()
Hello, World!
hello.rebind(subject='PyGlove')
hello.greet()
Hello, PyGlove!
hello.rebind(subject=pg.oneof(['World', 'PyGlove']))
for h in pg.iter(hello):
h.greet()
Hello, World!
Hello, PyGlove!
