Hi,
I hope that this hasn't been asked for the millionth time, so my apologies if
it has.
I have a base class (BaseClass - we'll call it for this example) with an http
call that i would like to inherit into a dynamic class at runtime. We'll call
that method in BaseClass; 'request'.
I have a dictionary(json) of key (class name): value(method) that I would like
to create inheriting this 'request' method from the BaseClass. So the derived
class would look something like this
definition in json:
{"Whatever": [{"method1": "Some Default", "async": True},{"method2": "Some
Other Default", "async": True}]}
Ideally I'd like the class def to look something like this if i were to type it
out by hand
[excuse the indents]
class Whatever(BaseClass):
def method1(self):
stupid_data = super(Whatever, self).request("method1")
return stupid_data
def method2(self):
stupid_data = super(Whatever, self).request("method1")
return stupid_data
Now, I've been trying to do this using the python cli, with out success.
So, attempting this at runtime I get a plethora of wonderful errors that I
suspect has broken my brain.
Here is what i've tried:
# trying with just an empty object of type BaseClass
obj = type("Object", (BaseClass,), {})
whatever = type("WhatEver", (obj,), {"method1": super(WhatEver,
self).request("method1")})
but when i try this I get 'NameError: name 'self' is not defined'
defining these classes manually works...
I hope that this was clear enough, apologies if it wasn't. It's late(ish), I'm
tired and borderline frustrated :) But enough about me...
Thanks in advance.
