Depending on the name of the first argument, self.__sup
or cls.__sup
behaves like super()
in Python 3, while this code is written in Python 2.7.
It works for both ordinary methods and class methods(static methods don't use super()
). See my code for detailed examples:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 | class SuperWrapper(object):
"""Make sure descriptor super(cls) is invoked
even when called on a class."""
def __init__(self, cls):
self.cls = cls
def __get__(self, obj, cls):
if obj is None:
return super(self.cls, cls)
else:
return super(self.cls, obj)
class SuperMeta(type):
"Automatically add attribute __sup for every class."
def __init__(cls, name, bases, clsdict):
setattr(cls, '_{}__sup'.format(name), SuperWrapper(cls))
super(SuperMeta, cls).__init__(name, bases, clsdict)
# Usage examples:
class A(object):
__metaclass__ = SuperMeta
def meth(self):
print 'A.meth(%s)' % self
@classmethod
def clsmeth(cls):
print 'A.clsmeth(%s)' % cls
class B(A):
def meth(self):
self.__sup.meth() # super().meth()
print 'B.meth(%s)' % self
@classmethod
def clsmeth(cls):
cls.__sup.clsmeth() # super().clsmeth()
print 'B.clsmeth(%s)' % cls
class C(A):
def meth(self):
self.__sup.meth()
print 'C.meth(%s)' % self
@classmethod
def clsmeth(cls):
cls.__sup.clsmeth()
print 'C.clsmeth(%s)' % cls
class D(B, C):
def meth(self):
self.__sup.meth()
print 'D.meth(%s)' % self
@classmethod
def clsmeth(cls):
cls.__sup.clsmeth()
print 'D.clsmeth(%s)' % cls
d = D()
d.meth()
d.clsmeth()
