## Installation

```shell
pip install Deprecated
```

## Usage

To use this, decorate your deprecated function with **@deprecated** decorator:

```python
from deprecated import deprecated


@deprecated
def some_old_function(x, y):
    return x + y
```

You can also decorate a class or a method:

```python
from deprecated import deprecated


class SomeClass(object):
    @deprecated
    def some_old_method(self, x, y):
        return x + y


@deprecated
class SomeOldClass(object):
    pass
```

You can give a "reason" message to help the developer to choose another function/class:

```python
from deprecated import deprecated


@deprecated(reason="use another function")
def some_old_function(x, y):
    return x + y
```
