Provides access to an element's class attribute as a set-like collection. Usage:

>>> el = fromstring('<p class="hidden large">Text</p>')
>>> classes = el.classes  # or: classes = Classes(el.attrib)
>>> classes |= ['block', 'paragraph']
>>> el.get('class')
'hidden large block paragraph'
>>> classes.toggle('hidden')
False
>>> el.get('class')
'large block paragraph'
>>> classes -= ('some', 'classes', 'block')
>>> el.get('class')
'large paragraph'

Method Details [hide private]

__contains__(self, name)
(In operator)

source code 
Overrides: _abcoll.Container.__contains__

__init__(self, attributes)
(Constructor)

source code 
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature
Overrides: object.__init__
(inherited documentation)

__iter__(self)

source code 
Overrides: _abcoll.Iterable.__iter__

__len__(self)
(Length operator)

source code 
Overrides: _abcoll.Sized.__len__

add(self, value)

source code 

Add a class.

This has no effect if the class is already present.

Overrides: _abcoll.MutableSet.add

discard(self, value)

source code 

Remove a class if it is currently present.

If the class is not present, do nothing.

Overrides: _abcoll.MutableSet.discard

remove(self, value)

source code 

Remove a class; it must currently be present.

If the class is not present, raise a KeyError.

Overrides: _abcoll.MutableSet.remove

toggle(self, value)

source code 

Add a class name if it isn't there yet, or remove it if it exists.

Returns true if the class was added (and is now enabled) and false if it was removed (and is now disabled).
