31"""A database of Python protocol buffer generated symbols.
32
33SymbolDatabase makes it easy to create new instances of a registered type, given
34only the type's protocol buffer symbol name. Once all symbols are registered,
35they can be accessed using either the MessageFactory interface which
36SymbolDatabase exposes, or the DescriptorPool interface of the underlying
37pool.
38
39Example usage:
40
41  db = symbol_database.SymbolDatabase()
42
43  # Register symbols of interest, from one or multiple files.
44  db.RegisterFileDescriptor(my_proto_pb2.DESCRIPTOR)
45  db.RegisterMessage(my_proto_pb2.MyMessage)
46  db.RegisterEnumDescriptor(my_proto_pb2.MyEnum.DESCRIPTOR)
47
48  # The database can be used as a MessageFactory, to generate types based on
49  # their name:
50  types = db.GetMessages(['my_proto.proto'])
51  my_message_instance = types['MyMessage']()
52
53  # The database's underlying descriptor pool can be queried, so it's not
54  # necessary to know a type's filename to be able to generate it:
55  filename = db.pool.FindFileContainingSymbol('MyMessage')
56  my_message_instance = db.GetMessages([filename])['MyMessage']()
57
58  # This functionality is also provided directly via a convenience method:
59  my_message_instance = db.GetSymbol('MyMessage')()
