) → Callable[..., T][source]#
silent(
func: None = None,
*,
mute_stderr: bool = False,
) → Callable[[Callable[..., T]], Callable[..., T]]

Decorator that makes a function silent (disable stdout, and stderr if specified).

Alternative to Muffle.

Parameters:

  • func (Callable[..., T] | None) – Function to make silent

  • mute_stderr (bool) – Whether to mute stderr or not

Examples

>>> @silent
... def test():
...     print("Hello, world!")
>>> test()

>>> @silent(mute_stderr=True)
... def test2():
...     print("Hello, world!")
>>> test2()

>>> silent(print)("Hello, world!")
