#10563 introduced type annotations for title in CellRange (thanks!).
Unfortunately, it made it required in one of the overloads.
I don't think title should be required.
Discussion
A comment in the stub provides a justification for making it required:
# Could be None if the caller forgot to set title and range_string doesn't contain "!"
# but that's not intended and will lead to errors (ie: can't be None in __str__)
title: str
However, __str__ works fine if title is none:
>>> from openpyxl.worksheet.cell_range import CellRange
>>> r = CellRange(min_col=1, min_row=1, max_col=10, max_row=100)
>>> r
<CellRange A1:J100>
>>> str(r)
'A1:J100'
I haven't found any other place in the CellRange source where title = None would be causing problems.
It is apparently treated as equivalent to an empty string.
Example
from openpyxl.worksheet.cell_range import CellRange
cell_range = CellRange(
min_col=1,
min_row=1,
max_col=10,
max_row=100,
)This passed all checks with Pyright 1.1.324. But Pyright 1.1.326 (which includes the latest rev of typeshed) reports:
/issues/bug_cellrange_title.py
/issues/bug_cellrange_title.py:3:14 - error: No overloads for "__init__" match the provided arguments
Argument types: (Literal[1], Literal[1], Literal[10], Literal[100]) (reportGeneralTypeIssues)
Workaround
Set title to an empty string.
