A simple enumeration-like class that defines constants representing different activity domain categories.

simple
Purpose
ActivityDomain serves as a constant container class that defines four distinct activity domain types: unknown, work, personal, and unrestricted. Each domain is represented by a string numeric value ('0' through '3'). This class is typically used for categorizing activities, events, or data based on their domain context, allowing for consistent domain identification across an application.
Source Code
class ActivityDomain:
""""""
unknown = "0"
work = "1"
personal = "2"
unrestricted = "3"
Parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Kind |
|---|---|---|---|
bases |
- | - |
Parameter Details
bases: The base classes from which ActivityDomain inherits. In this case, it implicitly inherits from 'object' (Python's default base class). No custom base classes are specified.
Return Value
Instantiating ActivityDomain returns an instance of the class. However, this class is designed to be used as a namespace for constants rather than being instantiated. The class attributes (unknown, work, personal, unrestricted) return string values ('0', '1', '2', '3' respectively) when accessed.
Class Interface
Attributes
| Name | Type | Description | Scope |
|---|---|---|---|
unknown |
str | Represents an unknown or unspecified activity domain. Value: '0' | class |
work |
str | Represents a work-related activity domain. Value: '1' | class |
personal |
str | Represents a personal activity domain. Value: '2' | class |
unrestricted |
str | Represents an unrestricted activity domain that can span multiple contexts. Value: '3' | class |
Usage Example
# Access domain constants directly from the class
from activity_domain import ActivityDomain
# Use the constants for domain categorization
user_domain = ActivityDomain.work
print(user_domain) # Output: '1'
# Compare domains
if user_domain == ActivityDomain.work:
print("This is a work-related activity")
# Use in a dictionary or configuration
domain_mapping = {
ActivityDomain.unknown: "Unknown Domain",
ActivityDomain.work: "Work Domain",
ActivityDomain.personal: "Personal Domain",
ActivityDomain.unrestricted: "Unrestricted Domain"
}
# Store domain value in a variable
activity_type = ActivityDomain.personal
print(f"Activity domain: {activity_type}") # Output: Activity domain: 2
Best Practices
- This class should not be instantiated; use it as a namespace to access domain constants directly via class attributes (e.g., ActivityDomain.work).
- The class follows a pseudo-enumeration pattern. Consider using Python's enum.Enum for type safety and better IDE support in production code.
- Domain values are strings ('0', '1', '2', '3') rather than integers, which may be intentional for API compatibility or database storage. Be consistent when comparing values.
- Do not modify the class attributes at runtime as they are intended to be immutable constants.
- When extending or modifying, consider that other parts of the codebase may depend on these specific string values.
- For better type hinting and validation, consider converting this to an Enum class: class ActivityDomain(str, Enum).
