SPEAKER 2021

Vladimir Losev

Designation: Head of the Crowdsourcing Tools Development Group

Company: Toloka

Topic: Improving code analysis with automatic stub generation

Track: Developers’ Meet

Date: 8th October, 2021

Time: 1:00 PM to 1:30 PM

Abstract

Projects that heavily rely on such Python features as metaclasses, decorators, or code-generation face a problem of poor support by static code analysis tools. This results in little to no suggestions in IDE or broken mypy tests.

We’ll talk about how we addressed this issue on our open-source https://github.com/Toloka/toloka-kit and https://github.com/Toloka/crowd-kit projects.

We will:

  • 1. Show several simple cases that highlight the problem,
  • 2. Speak about why static code analysis fails,
  • 3. Tell about stub files: what are they and how can they help,
  • 4. Tell about how we solved static analysis issues with automatic stub generation,
  • 5. We are planning to upload the automatic stub-generation tool as a separate open-source project.
