You might look at the "adpater" pattern. It is heavily used in Zope - and there looks something like: * components are abstracted by interfaces (--> "zope.interface") * where flexibility is needed, the code looks like component = queryAdapter(<context>, interface, default=...) or component = queryUtility(interface, default=...) to get a component implementing "interface". (utilities are in some way adapters for "None", i.e. those independent of a context) * there is an adapter registry, its content is specified either via an XML specification file or via Python code -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
