You may implement <code>__str__</code> and <code>__repr__</code> by a base-class, but it's hard to call it <em>inheritance</em> and moreover, you may wish to remove it when you're done debugging.</p> <p>This simple (yet complete) recipe is a class decorator that injects <code>__str__</code> and <code>__repr__</code> into the class being printed. It handles nesting and even cycle detection, allowing you to just plug it into existing classes to get them pretty-printed and perhaps remove it later.</p> Object Proxying (Python) 2006-05-26T03:44:09-07:00tomer filibahttp://code.activestate.com/recipes/users/2520014/http://code.activestate.com/recipes/496741-object-proxying/ <p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 496741 by <a href="/recipes/users/2520014/">tomer filiba</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/extending/">extending</a>). </p> <p>transparent object proxying for (almost) all objects.</p> thread2 -- killable threads (Python) 2012-08-09T20:14:33-07:00tomer filibahttp://code.activestate.com/recipes/users/2520014/http://code.activestate.com/recipes/496960-thread2-killable-threads/ <p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 496960 by <a href="/recipes/users/2520014/">tomer filiba</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/threads/">threads</a>). </p> <p>A little module that extends the threading's module functionality -- allows one thread to raise exceptions in the context of another thread.

This means that the method itself will not keep the object alive. Useful for callbacks, caches, and avoiding cyclic references.</p> Templite (Python) 2006-05-16T17:35:27-07:00tomer filibahttp://code.activestate.com/recipes/users/2520014/http://code.activestate.com/recipes/496702-templite/ <p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 496702 by <a href="/recipes/users/2520014/">tomer filiba</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/text/">text</a>).

Revision 2. </p> <p>This code here creates real mixed-in classes: it actually merges one class into another (c-python specific), taking care of name-mangling, some complications with __slots__, and everything else. As a side-effect, you can also use it to mix modules into classes. Similar to ruby's include statement.</p> module mixins (Python) 2006-08-29T10:02:57-07:00tomer filibahttp://code.activestate.com/recipes/users/2520014/http://code.activestate.com/recipes/496997-module-mixins/ <p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 496997 by <a href="/recipes/users/2520014/">tomer filiba</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/extending/">extending</a>). </p> <p>Module mixins allow you to inherit from <em>modules</em>. This is how ruby achieves multiple inheritance, and I just wanted to show it's possible in python as well.</p> Container (Python) 2006-05-13T07:37:50-07:00tomer filibahttp://code.activestate.com/recipes/users/2520014/http://code.activestate.com/recipes/496697-container/ <p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 496697 by <a href="/recipes/users/2520014/">tomer filiba</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/extending/">extending</a>). </p> <p>A generic attribute container, with pretty printing and recursion protection</p> ShelfProxy (Python) 2006-05-26T14:40:18-07:00tomer filibahttp://code.activestate.com/recipes/users/2520014/http://code.activestate.com/recipes/496742-shelfproxy/ <p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 496742 by <a href="/recipes/users/2520014/">tomer filiba</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/extending/">extending</a>).
