r"""Library to provide simple API for promoting typed, validated and structured dataclass in charms.

Dict-like data structure are often used in charms. They are used for config, action parameters
and databag. This library aims at providing simple API for using pydantic BaseModel-derived class
in charms, in order to enhance:
* Validation, by embedding custom business logic to validate single parameters or even have
  validators that acts across different fields
* Parsing, by loading data into pydantic object we can both allow for other types (e.g. float) to
  be used in configuration/parameters as well as specify even nested complex objects for databags
* Static typing checks, by moving from dict-like object to classes with typed-annotated properties,
  that can be statically checked using mypy to ensure that the code is correct.

Pydantic models can be used on:

* Charm Configuration (as defined in config.yaml)
* Actions parameters (as defined in actions.yaml)
* Application/Unit Databag Information (thus making it more structured and encoded)


## Creating models

Any data-structure can be modeled using dataclasses instead of dict-like objects (e.g.  storing
config, action parameters and databags). Within pydantic, we can define dataclasses that provides
also parsing and validation on standard dataclass implementation:

```python

from charms.data_platform_libs.v0.data_models import BaseConfigModel

class MyConfig(BaseConfigModel):

    my_key: int

    @validator("my_key")
     def is_lower_than_100(cls, v: int):
         if v > 100:
             raise ValueError("Too high")

```

This should allow to collapse both parsing and validation as the dataclass object is parsed and
created:

```python
dataclass = MyConfig(my_key="1")

dataclass.my_key # this returns 1 (int)
dataclass["my_key"] # this returns 1 (int)

dataclass = MyConfig(my_key="102") # this returns a ValueError("Too High")
```

## Charm Configuration Model

Using the class above, we can implement parsing and validation of configuration by simply
extending our charms using the `TypedCharmBase` class, as shown below.

```python
class MyCharm(TypedCharmBase[MyConfig]):
    config_type = MyConfig

     # everywhere in the code you will have config property already parsed and validate
     def my_method(self):
         self.config: MyConfig
```

## Action parameters

In order to parse action parameters, we can use a decorator to be applied to action event
callbacks, as shown below.

```python
@validate_params(PullActionModel)
def _pull_site_action(
    self, event: ActionEvent,
    params: Optional[Union[PullActionModel, ValidationError]] = None
):
    if isinstance(params, ValidationError):
        # handle errors
    else:
        # do stuff
```

Note that this changes the signature of the callbacks by adding an extra parameter with the parsed
counterpart of the `event.params` dict-like field. If validation fails, we return (not throw!) the
exception, to be handled (or raised) in the callback.

## Databag

In order to parse databag fields, we define a decorator to be applied to base relation event
callbacks.

```python
@parse_relation_data(app_model=AppDataModel, unit_model=UnitDataModel)
def _on_cluster_relation_joined(
        self, event: RelationEvent,
        app_data: Optional[Union[AppDataModel, ValidationError]] = None,
        unit_data: Optional[Union[UnitDataModel, ValidationError]] = None
) -> None:
    ...
```

The parameters `app_data` and `unit_data` refers to the databag of the entity which fired the
RelationEvent.

When we want to access to a relation databag outsides of an action, it can be useful also to
compact multiple databags into a single object (if there are no conflicting fields), e.g.

```python

class ProviderDataBag(BaseClass):
    provider_key: str

class RequirerDataBag(BaseClass):
    requirer_key: str

class MergedDataBag(ProviderDataBag, RequirerDataBag):
    pass

merged_data = get_relation_data_as(
    MergedDataBag, relation.data[self.app], relation.data[relation.app]
)

merged_data.requirer_key
merged_data.provider_key

```

The above code can be generalized to other kinds of merged objects, e.g. application and unit, and
it can be extended to multiple sources beyond 2:

```python
merged_data = get_relation_data_as(
    MergedDataBag, relation.data[self.app], relation.data[relation.app], ...
)
```
