hoist_shared_state_requests

penzai.deprecated.v1.data_effects.local_state.hoist_shared_state_requests(tree: Any, unsafe: bool = False) → tuple[Any, dict[str, InitialLocalStateRequest | FrozenLocalStateRequest]]

Hoists out the value of shared states in a pytree.

This function is a helper for manipulating Penzai models that contain shared states. Ordinarily, shared states in a Penzai model are represented as some combination of:

• exactly one of:

  • a single FrozenLocalStateRequest with a value

  • multiple InitialLocalStateRequest nodes with identical initializers

• followed by one or more SharedLocalStateRequest nodes

where all such requests have the same explicit name. This is convenient for manipulating the model as a whole, but can make it somewhat annoying to extract a small part of a model that uses a shared state defined elsewhere.

This function takes a tree of this form and returns a new tree that only contains a SharedLocalStateRequest whenever there is a state that is used in multiple places, along with a dictionary mapping each state name to the concrete definition it uses. The new tree can be freely manipulated, and then a single copy of the state can be re-embedded using embed_shared_states.

Parameters:

• tree – A tree where each shared variable appears either once as a FrozenLocalStateRequest or multiple times as identical InitialLocalStateRequest nodes, followed by some number of SharedLocalStateRequest nodes.

• unsafe – If True, tree can have multiple FrozenLocalStateRequest or InitialLocalStateRequest nodes with different initializers, and one will be picked arbitrarily.

Returns:

A tuple of (new_tree, state_defs), where new_tree is a copy of tree where all shared states have been replaced by a SharedLocalStateRequest, and state_defs is a dictionary mapping each shared state name to the corresponding InitialLocalStateRequest or FrozenLocalStateRequest. These can be passed to embed_shared_state_requests to rebuild the original tree.
