api

Public-API lifetime decorators (RFC-0014 §3.3, §3.6).

Two decorators mark stability on the public surface:

  • :func:experimental — wraps a function or class that may change without notice. Emits :class:FutureWarning once per process per decorated object on first call / instantiation.
  • :func:deprecated — wraps a function or class scheduled for removal. Emits :class:DeprecationWarning once per process per call site (i.e. once per (file, line) of the calling code). Takes a free-text reason describing what replaces the deprecated API.

Both decorators preserve __name__, __doc__, __module__, __qualname__, __wrapped__, and (for classes) the original attribute surface, so mypy and IDE introspection are unaffected.

experimental 

experimental(obj: F) -> F

experimental(*, reason: str = '') -> Callable[[F], F]

experimental(obj: Any = None, *, reason: str = '') -> Any

Mark obj (a function or class) as experimental.

Usage::

@experimental
def f(...): ...

@experimental(reason="API shape under review")
class C: ...

Emits :class:FutureWarning once per process when the decorated object is first invoked (function) or instantiated (class). Later calls are silent.

deprecated 

deprecated(reason: str = '') -> Callable[[F], F]

Mark obj as deprecated.

Usage::

@deprecated("use new_thing() instead; removed in v0.3")
def old_thing(...): ...

Emits :class:DeprecationWarning once per process per call site — that is, once per (filename, lineno) of the calling code. Multiple call sites all warn; the same site warns only once.

reason is appended to the warning message; pass a short actionable string ("use X instead").
