Currently I used DTO(Data Transfer Object) like this. class Test1: def __init__(self, user_id: int = None, body: str = None): self.user_id = user_id self.body = body Example code is very small, But when object scale growing up, I have to define every variable. While digging into it, found that python 3.7 supported dataclass Below code is DTO used dataclass. from dataclasses import dataclass @dataclass class Test2: user_id: int body: str In this case, How can I allow pass more argument that does not define into class Test2? If I used Test1, it is easy. Just add **kwargs(asterisk) into __init__ class Test1: def __init__(self, user_id: int = None, body: str = None, **kwargs): self.user_id = user_id self.body = body But using dataclass, Can't found any way to implement it. Is there any solution here? Thanks. EDIT class Test1: def __init__(self, user_id: str = None, body: str = None): self.user_id = user_id self.body = body if __name__ == '__main__': temp = {'user_id': 'hide', 'body': 'body test'} t1 = Test1(**temp) print(t1.__dict__) Result : {'user_id': 'hide', 'body': 'body test'} As you know, I want to insert data with dictionary type -> **temp Reason to using asterisk in dataclass is the same. I have to pass dictinary type to class init. Any idea here? Continue reading...
