"""Decorator and context manager for saving and restoring flag values.
There are many ways to save and restore. Always use the most convenient method
for a given use case.
Here are examples of each method. They all call do_stuff() while FLAGS.someflag
is temporarily set to 'foo'.
from absl.testing import flagsaver
# Use a decorator which can optionally override flags via arguments.
@flagsaver.flagsaver(someflag='foo')
def some_func():
do_stuff()
# Use a decorator which does not override flags itself.
@flagsaver.flagsaver
def some_func():
FLAGS.someflag = 'foo'
do_stuff()
# Use a context manager which can optionally override flags via arguments.
with flagsaver.flagsaver(someflag='foo'):
do_stuff()
# Save and restore the flag values yourself.
saved_flag_values = flagsaver.save_flag_values()
try:
FLAGS.someflag = 'foo'
do_stuff()
finally:
flagsaver.restore_flag_values(saved_flag_values)
We save and restore a shallow copy of each Flag object's __dict__ attribute.
This preserves all attributes of the flag, such as whether or not it was
overridden from its default value.
WARNING: Currently a flag that is saved and then deleted cannot be restored. An
exception will be raised. However if you *add* a flag after saving flag values,
and then restore flag values, the added flag will be deleted with no errors.
