Supers: Call a function in all superclasses as easy as supers(self).foo(42)
Installation
pip install supersDevelopment installation
pip install -e .[tests,build]Example
Say you have a class inheriting from multiple parent classes, and you would like a function for each parent. With supers this becomes as easy as:
from supers import supers
class Parent1:
def __init__(self, m:float):
self.m1 = m * 1
def mult(self, value):
return value * self.m1
class Parent2:
def __init__(self, m:float):
self.m2 = m * 2
def mult(self, value):
return value * self.m2
class Child(Parent1, Parent2):
def __init__(self, m):
supers(self).__init__(m)
def allmult(self, val):
return supers(self).mult(val)
c = Child(m=10)
# Parent attributes were updated
assert c.m1 == 10
assert c.m2 == 20
# Parent1.mult is called as expected
assert c.mult(10) == 100
# Each parent is called and results are returned in a list
assert c.allmult(10) == supers(c).mult(10) == [100, 200]
