class rich.pretty.Node(key_repr: str = '', value_repr: str = '', open_brace: str = '', close_brace: str = '', empty: str = '', last: bool = False, is_tuple: bool = False, children: Optional[List[rich.pretty.Node]] = None, separator: str = ', ')

A node in a repr tree. May be atomic or a container.

check_length(start_length: int, max_length: int) → bool

Check the length fits within a limit.

Parameters

• start_length (int) – Starting length of the line (indent, prefix, suffix).

• max_length (int) – Maximum length.

Returns

True if the node can be rendered within max length, otherwise False.

Return type

bool

iter_tokens() → Iterable[str]

Generate tokens for this node.

render(max_width: int = 80, indent_size: int = 4, expand_all: bool = False) → str

Render the node to a pretty repr.

Parameters

• max_width (int, optional) – Maximum width of the repr. Defaults to 80.

• indent_size (int, optional) – Size of indents. Defaults to 4.

• expand_all (bool, optional) – Expand all levels. Defaults to False.

Returns

A repr string of the original object.

Return type

str
