"""Create a lazy prop only included during partial reloads.
Lazy props are excluded from the initial page load and only sent when
explicitly requested via partial reload (X-Inertia-Partial-Data header).
This optimizes initial page load by deferring non-critical data.
There are two use cases for lazy():
**1. Static Value (bandwidth optimization)**:
The value is computed eagerly but only sent during partial reloads.
Use when the value is cheap to compute but you want to reduce initial payload.
>>> lazy("user_count", len(users))
**2. Callable (bandwidth + CPU optimization)**:
The callable is only invoked during partial reloads.
Use when the value is expensive to compute.
>>> lazy("permissions", lambda: Permission.all())
.. warning:: **False Lazy Pitfall**
Be careful not to accidentally call the function when passing it.
Wrong::
lazy("data", expensive_fn())
Correct::
lazy("data", expensive_fn)
This is a Python evaluation order issue, not a framework limitation.
Args:
key: The key to store the value under in the props dict.
value_or_callable: Either a static value (computed eagerly, sent lazily)
or a callable (computed and sent lazily). If None, creates a lazy
prop with None value.
Returns:
StaticProp if value_or_callable is not callable, DeferredProp otherwise.
Example::
from litestar_vite.inertia import lazy, InertiaResponse

"user_count": lazy("user_count", 42),
