python - Defining setter in a shorter way -

currently when want define setter , leave getter alone this:

@property def my_property(self):     return self._my_property  @my_property.setter def my_property(self, value):     value.do_some_magic()     self._my_property = value 

is there way make shorter? i'd skip part same:

@property def my_property(self):     return self._my_property 

you can make decorator auto-creates getter, following underscores convention:

def setter(fn):     def _get(self):         return getattr(self, '_' + fn.__name__)     def _set(self, val):         return fn(self, val)     return property(_get, _set) 

or more concisely, if style more:

def setter(fn):     return property(         lambda self: getattr(self, '_' + fn.__name__),         fn) 

usage:

class x(object):     @setter     def my_property(self, value):         self._my_property = value + 1  x = x() x.my_property = 42 print x.my_property # 43
