Using auto-generated SiLA Client classes

When generating a Python package using the Code Generator, the generated package will contain a class Client, which is a subclass of SilaClient.

These classes differ from the generic SilaClient in the following ways:

• They can only be connected to a SiLA Server implementing at least the features of the generated package

• When receiving a DefinedExecutionError from the SiLA Server, it will be raised as an instance of the generated DefinedExecutionError subclass

  • Example: SiLAService.GetFeatureDefinition will raise an instance of UnimplementedFeature

• They provide PEP 484 type hints so you can use tools like mypy to perform static type checking on your client-side code
