Object's printable representation (__repr__)

[FrancescElies]

When debugging and printing objects of the type FileInformation and FunctionInfo you get <lizard.FileInformation object at 0x000002340BA81828> and <lizard.FunctionInfo object at 0x000001F846AB34E0> respectively.

To solve this we could:

• Implement __repr__ methods
• Use dataclasses but this would require to drop support for older python versions than 3.7.
• If support for older python versions is required we could use attrs

Would you be interested in this?

Could please send a pull request?

Before doing so, I would like to agree on the approach first.

1. implement __repr__ on our own
2. use dataclasses and dropping support for older python versions
3. use attrs

Would you have any preferences?

I think 1 or 3. I would choose 3 if it’s compatible with the current code.
