Creating Well-Behaved Decorators / "Decorator decorator"

Note: This is only one recipe. Others include inheritance from a standard decorator (link?), the functools @wraps decorator, and a factory function such as Michele Simionato's decorator module which even preserves signature information.

   6     modify function attributes or docstring, then it is

Property Definition

Alternate memoize as nested functions

Here's a memoizing function that works on functions, methods, or classes, and exposes the cache publicly.

   1 # note that this decorator ignores **kwargs
   2 def memoize(obj):
   3     cache = obj.cache = {}

   8             cache[args] = obj(*args, **kwargs)

  10     return memoizer

Here's a modified version that also respects kwargs.

Alternate memoize as dict subclass

  10         return result

Retry

Call a function which returns True/False to indicate success or failure. On failure, wait, and try the function again. On repeated failures, wait longer between each successive attempt. If the decorator runs out of attempts, then it gives up and returns False, but you could just as easily raise some exception.

Note: There is only one drawback: wrapper checks its arguments for single function or class. To avoid wrong behavior you can use keyword arguments instead of positional, e.g.:

Pre-/Post-Conditions

   7   ...    assert inval >= 20, 'Input value < 20'
   8   ...

  10   ...    assert retval < 30, 'Return value >= 30'
  11   ...

  13   ... @postcondition(out_lt30)
  14   ... def inc(value):
  15   ...   return value + 1
  16   ...
  17   >>> inc(5)
  18   Traceback (most recent call last):
  19     ...
  20   AssertionError: Input value < 20
  21   >>> inc(29)
  22   Traceback (most recent call last):
  23     ...
  24   AssertionError: Return value >= 30
  25   >>> inc(20)
  26   21
  27 
  28 You can define as many pre-/postconditions for a function as you
  29 like. It is also possible to specify both types of conditions at once:
  30 
  31   >>> @conditions(in_ge20, out_lt30)
  32   ... def add1(value):
  33   ...   return value + 1
  34   ...
  35   >>> add1(5)
  36   Traceback (most recent call last):
  37     ...
  38   AssertionError: Input value < 20
  39 
  40 An interesting feature is the ability to prevent the creation of
  41 pre-/postconditions at function definition time. This makes it
  42 possible to use conditions for debugging and then switch them off for
  43 distribution.
  44 
  45   >>> debug = False
  46   >>> @precondition(in_ge20, debug)
  47   ... def dec(value):

Line Tracing Individual Functions

I cobbled this together from the trace module. It allows you to decorate individual functions so their lines are traced. I think it works out to be a slightly smaller hammer than running the trace module and trying to pare back what it traces using exclusions.

Type Enforcement (accepts/returns)

Provides various degrees of type enforcement for function parameters and return values.

Toggle line numbers

   1 '''
   2 One of three degrees of enforcement may be specified by passing
   3 the 'debug' keyword argument to the decorator:
   4     0 -- NONE:   No type-checking. Decorators disabled.
   5  #!python
   6 -- MEDIUM: Print warning message to stderr. (Default)
   7     2 -- STRONG: Raise TypeError with message.
   8 If 'debug' is not passed to the decorator, the default level is used.
   9 
  10 Example usage:
  11     >>> NONE, MEDIUM, STRONG = 0, 1, 2
  12     >>>
  13     >>> @accepts(int, int, int)
  14     ... @returns(float)

  16     ...     return (x + y + z) / 2

CGI method wrapper

Handles HTML boilerplate at top and bottom of pages returned from CGI methods. Works with the cgi module. Now your request handlers can just output the interesting HTML, and let the decorator deal with all the top and bottom clutter.

(Note: the exception handler eats all exceptions, which in CGI is no big loss, since the program runs in its separate subprocess. At least here, the exception contents will be written to the output page.)

State Machine Implementaion

A much improved version of decorators for implementing state machines, too long to show here, is at State Machine via Decorators

This example uses Decorators to facilitate the implementation of a state machine in Python. Decorators are used to specify which methods are the event handlers for the class. In this example, actions are associated with the transitions, but it is possible with a little consideration to associate actions with states instead.

The example defines a class, MyMachine that is a state machine. Multiple instances of the class may be instantiated with each maintaining its own state. A class also may have multiple states. Here I've used gstate and tstate.

The code in the imported statedefn file gets a bit hairy, but you may not need to delve into it for your application.

C++/Java-keyword-like function decorators

@abstractMethod, @deprecatedMethod, @privateMethod, @protectedMethod, @raises, @parameterTypes, @returnType

The annotations provide run-time type checking and an alternative way to document code.

The code and documentation are long, so I offer a link: http://fightingquaker.com/pyanno/

Different Decorator Forms

There are operational differences between:

Decorator with no arguments
Decorator with arguments
Decorator with wrapped class instance awareness

This example demonstrates the operational differences between the three using a skit taken from Episode 22: Bruces.

Class method decorator using instance

When decorating a class method, the decorator receives an function not yet bound to an instance.

The decorator can't to do anything on the instance invocating it, unless it actually is a descriptor.

This implementation replaces the descriptor by the actual decorated function ASAP to avoid overhead, but you could keep it to do even more (counting calls, etc...)

Another Retrying Decorator

Here's another decorator for causing a function to be retried a certain number of times. This decorator is superior IMHO because it should work with any old function that raises an exception on failure.

Features:

Works with any function that signals failure by raising an exception (I.E. just about any function)
Supports retry delay and backoff
User can specify which exceptions are caught for retrying. E.g. networking code might be expected to raise SocketError in the event of communications difficulties, while any other exception likely indicates a bug in the code.

Logging decorator with specified logger (or default)

This decorator will log entry and exit points of your funtion using the specified logger or it defaults to your function's module name logger.

In the current form it uses the logging.INFO level, but I can easily customized to use what ever level. Same for the entry and exit messages.

Lazy Thunkify

This decorator will cause any function to, instead of running its code, start a thread to run the code, returning a thunk (function with no args) that wait for the function's completion and returns the value (or raises the exception).

Useful if you have Computation A that takes x seconds and then uses Computation B, which takes y seconds. Instead of x+y seconds you only need max(x,y) seconds.

Aggregative decorators for generator functions

This could be a whole family of decorators. The aim is applying an aggregation function to the iterated outcome of a generator-functions.

Two interesting aggregators could be sum and average:

Toggle line numbers

   1 import functools as ft import operator as op
   2 
   3 def summed(f):
   4   return lambda *xs : sum(f(*xs))
   5 
   6 def averaged(f):
   7   def aux(acc, x):
   8     return (acc[0] + x, acc[1] + 1)
   9 
  10   def out(*xs):
  11     s, n = ft.reduce(aux, f(*xs), (0, 0))
  12     return s / n if n > 0 else 0
  13 
  14   return out

Examples for the two proposed decorators:

   1 @averaged
   2 def producer2():
   3     yield 10
   4     yield 5
   5     yield 2.5

  10 @summed
  11 def producer1():

Function Timeout

Ever had a function take forever in weird edge cases? In one case, a function was extracting URIs from a long string using regular expressions, and sometimes it was running into a bug in the Python regexp engine and would take minutes rather than milliseconds. The best solution was to install a timeout using an alarm signal and simply abort processing. This can conveniently be wrapped in a decorator:

Toggle line numbers

   1 import signal
   2 import functools
   3 
   4 class TimeoutError(Exception): pass
   5 
   6 def timeout(seconds, error_message = 'Function call timed out'):
   7     def decorated(func):
   8         def _handle_timeout(signum, frame):
   9             raise TimeoutError(error_message)
  10 
  11         def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
  12             signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, _handle_timeout)
  13             signal.alarm(seconds)
  14             try:
  15                 result = func(*args, **kwargs)
  16             finally:
  17                 signal.alarm(0)
  18             return result
  19 
  20         return functools.wraps(func)(wrapper)
  21 
  22     return decorated

Example:

Toggle line numbers

   1 import time
   2 
   3 @timeout(1, 'Function slow; aborted')
   4 def slow_function():
   5     time.sleep(5)
