Summary

Simplifies the decorator type-dispatch system by removing dead Grid1D/Array1D code paths, cleaning up over-sampling metadata handling, adding comprehensive tests, and introducing aa.decorators as the canonical public name (replacing aa.grid_dec).

Reduces the decorator system from 648 to 365 lines (44% reduction) while maintaining identical runtime behaviour.

API Changes

aa.decorators is now the canonical way to access decorators (to_array, to_grid, to_vector_yx, transform). The old aa.grid_dec alias is preserved for backwards compatibility. See full details below.

Test Plan

  • All 730 PyAutoArray tests pass
  • All 834 PyAutoGalaxy tests pass (uses decorators extensively)
  • All 246 PyAutoLens tests pass
  • New ndarray passthrough tests for all three decorators
  • New transform decorator tests (applied, skipped, rotate_back)
Full API Changes (for automation & release notes)

Added

  • aa.decorators — canonical alias for aa.grid_dec (same module, new name)
  • aa.m.MockTransformProfile — test mock for transform decorator

Renamed

  • aa.grid_decaa.decorators (old name still works as deprecated alias)

Removed (internal only — not public API)

  • AbstractMaker.via_grid_1d() — dead code, Grid1D was never passed to decorated methods
  • ArrayMaker.via_grid_1d() — dead code path producing Array1D
  • GridMaker.via_grid_1d() — dead code path
  • Grid1D isinstance branch in AbstractMaker.result and AbstractMaker.evaluate_func
  • Mask1D import from abstract maker

Migration

  • Before: @aa.grid_dec.to_array
  • After: @aa.decorators.to_array (old form still works)

Smoke tests revealed that workspace scripts (e.g. galaxies.py) pass Grid1D
to decorated methods. The Grid1D→2D projection in evaluate_func and the
via_grid_1d result handlers are needed for this path to work.
