node_serializable
Module¶
A module containing Serializable “Interface”. We pretend its an abstract class
-
class
nodeeditor.node_serializable.
Serializable
¶ Bases:
object
Default constructor automatically creates data which are common to any serializable object. In our case we create
self.id
which we use in every object in NodeEditor.-
id
¶ We set this property in the constructor because all of NodeEditor’s serializable objects use this attribute to unique object identification. It is handy for referencing objects.
-
serialize
() → collections.OrderedDict¶ Serialization method to serialize this class data into
OrderedDict
which can be easily stored in memory or file.Returns: data serialized in OrderedDict
Return type: OrderedDict
-
deserialize
(data: dict, hashmap: dict = {}, restore_id: bool = True) → bool¶ Deserialization method which take data in python
dict
format with helping hashmap containing references to existing entities.Parameters: - data (
dict
) – Dictionary containing serialized data - hashmap (
dict
) – Helper dictionary containing references (by id == key) to existing objects - restore_id (bool) – True if we are creating new Sockets. False is useful when loading existing Sockets of which we want to keep the existing object’s id.
Returns: True
if deserialization was successful, otherwiseFalse
Return type: bool
