# aliaser






aliaser provides a tiny metaclass and mixin that let you expose call-perfect
method aliases without writing boilerplate forwarders.

## Features
- `@alias` decorator to expose a method or property under multiple names.
- `Aliases` mixin for runtime helpers, backed by the `AliasMeta` metaclass.
- Property and method aliases share the original descriptor – no wrappers.
- `install()`/`uninstall()` helpers manage registration of `alias` on
`builtins`. `install()` runs automatically on import for drop-in usage.
## Installation
Install from PyPI:
```bash
pip install aliaser
```
Or add it to a Poetry project:
```bash
poetry add aliaser
```
## Usage
### Declaring aliases with `@alias`
```python
from aliaser import Aliases, alias
class Greeter(Aliases):
@alias('hi', 'sup')
def hello(self):
print("Hello!")
Greeter().hi() # prints "Hello!"
```
### Adding aliases at runtime
```python
Greeter.add_alias('hello', 'howdy')
Greeter().howdy() # also prints "Hello!"
```
### Avoiding the built-ins side effect
Importing the top-level package calls `aliaser.install()` which registers
`alias` on `builtins`. This modifies the global namespace. Call
`aliaser.uninstall()` to undo the side effect, or import `alias` from
`aliaser.decorator` and `Aliases` from `aliaser.mixin` directly instead of
importing `aliaser`.
## Development
Clone the repository and install dependencies with Poetry:
```bash
poetry install
```
After making changes you can build the wheel with `poetry build`. Feel free to
open issues or pull requests on GitHub to discuss improvements.
## Supported Python versions
This project requires Python 3.12 or newer.
## License
`aliaser` is distributed under the MIT License.
