static from_part_type(
part_type: str,
eid: str,
data: str,
user: User,
) → Entry[Any]#

Create an entry instance for a LabArchives part type.

This method takes a part type string and returns the corresponding entry class instance when one is registered. Recognized-but-unimplemented part types resolve to UnimplementedEntry, while truly unknown part types fall back to UnknownEntry.

Parameters:

  • part_type – The type of entry to create (e.g., “heading”, “text entry”, “plain text entry”, “attachment”, “widget entry”).

  • eid – The unique ID of the entry.

  • data – The entry data. For text-based entries, this is the text content. For attachment entries, this is the caption.

  • user – The authenticated user associated with this entry.

Returns:

An entry instance of the appropriate type.

property id: str#

Return the unique identifier of the entry.

Returns:

The entry’s ID as a string.

static is_registered(part_type: str) → bool#

Return whether an entry class is registered for part_type.

Parameters:

part_type – The LabArchives part type identifier to check.

Returns:

True if a class is registered for this part type, False otherwise.
