Overloads in regular Python files

Last modified: 03 December 2024

Reports cases when overloads in regular Python files are placed after the implementation or when their signatures are not compatible with the implementation.

Example:

from typing import overload


@overload
def foo(p1, p2): # Overload signature is not compatible with the implementation
    pass


@overload
def foo(p1): # Overload signature is not compatible with the implementation
    pass


def foo(p1, p2, p3):
    print(p1, p2, p3)
