## Summary
Closes: https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/157
This PR adds support for the following capabilities involving a
`ParamSpec` type variable:
- Representing `P.args` and `P.kwargs` in the type system
- Matching against a callable containing `P` to create a type mapping
- Specializing `P` against the stored parameters
The value of a `ParamSpec` type variable is being represented using
`CallableType` with a `CallableTypeKind::ParamSpecValue` variant. This
`CallableTypeKind` is expanded from the existing `is_function_like`
boolean flag. An `enum` is used as these variants are mutually
exclusive.
For context, an initial iteration made an attempt to expand the
`Specialization` to use `TypeOrParameters` enum that represents that a
type variable can specialize into either a `Type` or `Parameters` but
that increased the complexity of the code as all downstream usages would
need to handle both the variants appropriately. Additionally, we'd have
also need to establish an invariant that a regular type variable always
maps to a `Type` while a paramspec type variable always maps to a
`Parameters`.
I've intentionally left out checking and raising diagnostics when the
`ParamSpec` type variable and it's components are not being used
correctly to avoid scope increase and it can easily be done as a
follow-up. This would also include the scoping rules which I don't think
a regular type variable implements either.
## Test Plan
Add new mdtest cases and update existing test cases.
Ran this branch on pyx, no new diagnostics.
### Ecosystem analysis
There's a case where in an annotated assignment like:
```py
type CustomType[P] = Callable[...]
def value[**P](...): ...
def another[**P](...):
target: CustomType[P] = value
```
The type of `value` is a callable and it has a paramspec that's bound to
`value`, `CustomType` is a type alias that's a callable and `P` that's
used in it's specialization is bound to `another`. Now, ty infers the
type of `target` same as `value` and does not use the declared type
`CustomType[P]`. [This is the
assignment](0980b9d9ab/src/async_utils/gen_transform.py (L108))
that I'm referring to which then leads to error in downstream usage.
Pyright and mypy does seem to use the declared type.
There are multiple diagnostics in `dd-trace-py` that requires support
for `cls`.
I'm seeing `Divergent` type for an example like which ~~I'm not sure
why, I'll look into it tomorrow~~ is because of a cycle as mentioned in
https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/1729#issuecomment-3612279974:
```py
from typing import Callable
def decorator[**P](c: Callable[P, int]) -> Callable[P, str]: ...
@decorator
def func(a: int) -> int: ...
# ((a: int) -> str) | ((a: Divergent) -> str)
reveal_type(func)
```
I ~~need to look into why are the parameters not being specialized
through multiple decorators in the following code~~ think this is also
because of the cycle mentioned in
https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/1729#issuecomment-3612279974 and
the fact that we don't support `staticmethod` properly:
```py
from contextlib import contextmanager
class Foo:
@staticmethod
@contextmanager
def method(x: int):
yield
foo = Foo()
# ty: Revealed type: `() -> _GeneratorContextManager[Unknown, None, None]` [revealed-type]
reveal_type(foo.method)
```
There's some issue related to `Protocol` that are generic over a
`ParamSpec` in `starlette` which might be related to
https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/1635 but I'm not sure. Here's a
minimal example to reproduce:
<details><summary>Code snippet:</summary>
<p>
```py
from collections.abc import Awaitable, Callable, MutableMapping
from typing import Any, Callable, ParamSpec, Protocol
P = ParamSpec("P")
Scope = MutableMapping[str, Any]
Message = MutableMapping[str, Any]
Receive = Callable[[], Awaitable[Message]]
Send = Callable[[Message], Awaitable[None]]
ASGIApp = Callable[[Scope, Receive, Send], Awaitable[None]]
_Scope = Any
_Receive = Callable[[], Awaitable[Any]]
_Send = Callable[[Any], Awaitable[None]]
# Since `starlette.types.ASGIApp` type differs from `ASGIApplication` from `asgiref`
# we need to define a more permissive version of ASGIApp that doesn't cause type errors.
_ASGIApp = Callable[[_Scope, _Receive, _Send], Awaitable[None]]
class _MiddlewareFactory(Protocol[P]):
def __call__(
self, app: _ASGIApp, *args: P.args, **kwargs: P.kwargs
) -> _ASGIApp: ...
class Middleware:
def __init__(
self, factory: _MiddlewareFactory[P], *args: P.args, **kwargs: P.kwargs
) -> None:
self.factory = factory
self.args = args
self.kwargs = kwargs
class ServerErrorMiddleware:
def __init__(
self,
app: ASGIApp,
value: int | None = None,
flag: bool = False,
) -> None:
self.app = app
self.value = value
self.flag = flag
async def __call__(self, scope: Scope, receive: Receive, send: Send) -> None: ...
# ty: Argument to bound method `__init__` is incorrect: Expected `_MiddlewareFactory[(...)]`, found `<class 'ServerErrorMiddleware'>` [invalid-argument-type]
Middleware(ServerErrorMiddleware, value=500, flag=True)
```
</p>
</details>
### Conformance analysis
> ```diff
> -constructors_callable.py:36:13: info[revealed-type] Revealed type:
`(...) -> Unknown`
> +constructors_callable.py:36:13: info[revealed-type] Revealed type:

Requires return type inference i.e.,
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/21551
> ```diff
> +constructors_callable.py:194:16: error[invalid-argument-type]
Argument is incorrect: Expected `list[T@__init__]`, found `list[Unknown

> +constructors_callable.py:194:22: error[invalid-argument-type]
Argument is incorrect: Expected `list[T@__init__]`, found `list[Unknown

> +constructors_callable.py:195:4: error[invalid-argument-type] Argument

> +constructors_callable.py:195:9: error[invalid-argument-type] Argument
is incorrect: Expected `list[T@__init__]`, found `list[Unknown | str]`
> ```
I might need to look into why this is happening...
> ```diff
> +generics_defaults.py:79:1: error[type-assertion-failure] Type
`type[Class_ParamSpec[(str, int, /)]]` does not match asserted type
`<class 'Class_ParamSpec'>`
> ```
which is on the following code
```py
DefaultP = ParamSpec("DefaultP", default=[str, int])
class Class_ParamSpec(Generic[DefaultP]): ...
assert_type(Class_ParamSpec, type[Class_ParamSpec[str, int]])
```
It's occurring because there's no equivalence relationship defined
between `ClassLiteral` and `KnownInstanceType::TypeGenericAlias` which
is what these types are.
Everything else looks good to me!
