Hi all,
I am thinking about a class which can automatically determine the
order which it is run. I would like to implement a super class which
has a run() method and a pretrigger() method. The purpose of the
pretrigger method is to state what classes need to be run before this
class.run() method is executed.
So for example:
class superclass(object):
def run(self):
"""Method which will get overriden"""
def pretrigger(self):
"""Method which will get overriden and determine the order"""
class subclassA(superclass):
def run(self):
print "I am subclass A"
def pretrigger(self):
return [subclassB(),]
class subclassB(superclass):
def run(self):
print "I am subclass B"
def pretrigger(self): None
return [subclassC(), ]
class subclassC(superclass):
def run(self):
print "I am subclass C"
def pretrigger(self): None
return None
Now what I am looking for is some logic which can look at this and
draw the following conclusion.
- In order to run subclassA, I first need to run subclassB. In order
to run subclassB I need to run subclassC. So the order to run this
would be subclassC, subclassB, then subclassA.
I would also like some information on is this a good approach to using
a superclass or not?
Any and all comments are welcome. Thanks!!
