'Is there a way to type hint a decorator in Python so that functions decorated with it can be redefined without causing a MyPy error?
I'm creating a library that allows a function to be defined multiple times with different parameters, with only the final definition being considered as the actual definition (much like the behaviour of functools.overload).
Basically I want to achieve something like this:
def forget(func):
# In reality I'm doing a little more than just returning nothing
return None
# This version effectively doesn't exist after it is decorated
@forget
def hello():
pass
# Therefore defining this function shouldn't cause an error
def hello():
pass
How can I do this?
