If aspectlib.weave doesn’t work for your scenario please report a bug !

Requirements

OS:

Any

Runtime:

Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4 or PyPy

Changelog

1.3.0 (2015-06-06)

  • Added messages property to obj. Change call to have level name instead of number.

  • Fixed a bogus warning from func` when patching methods on old style classes.

1.2.2 (2014-11-25)

  • Added support for weakrefs in the __logged__ wrapper from obj decorator.

1.2.1 (2014-10-15)

  • Don’t raise exceptions from Replay.__exit__ if there would be an error (makes original cause hard to debug).

1.2.0 (2014-06-24)

  • Fixed weaving methods that were defined in some baseclass (and not on the target class).

  • Fixed wrong qualname beeing used in the Story/Replay recording. Now used the alias given to the weaver instead of whatever is the realname on the current platform.

1.1.1 (2014-06-14)

  • Use ASPECTLIB_DEBUG for every logger in aspectlib.

1.1.0 (2014-06-13)

  • Added a bind option to obj so you can access the cutpoint from the advisor.

  • Replaced automatic importing in obj with extraction of context variables (locals and globals from the calling obj). Works better than the previous inference of module from AST of the result.

  • All the methods on the replay are now properties: obj, obj and obj.

  • Added obj and obj.

  • Added an ASPECTLIB_DEBUG environment variable option to switch on debug logging in aspectlib’s internals.

1.0.0 (2014-05-03)

  • Reworked the internals obj to keep call ordering, to allow dependencies and improved the serialization (used in the diffs and the missing/unexpected lists).

0.9.0 (2014-04-16)

  • Changed obj:

    • Renamed history option to calls.

    • Renamed call option to iscalled.

    • Added callback option.

    • Added extended option.

  • Changed obj:

    • Allow weaving everything in a module.

    • Allow weaving instances of new-style classes.

  • Added obj class for capture-replay and stub/mock testing.

0.8.1 (2014-04-01)

  • Use simpler import for the py3support.

0.8.0 (2014-03-31)

  • Change obj to use obj and work as expected with coroutines or generators.

  • Fixed obj to work on Python 3.4.

  • Remove the undocumented aspectlib.Yield advice. It was only usable when decorating generators.

0.7.0 (2014-03-28)

  • Add support for decorating generators and coroutines in obj.

  • Made aspectlib raise better exceptions.

0.6.1 (2014-03-22)

  • Fix checks inside obj that would inadvertently call __bool__/__nonzero.

0.6.0 (2014-03-17)

  • Don’t include __getattribute__ in ALL_METHODS - it’s too dangerous dangerous dangerous dangerous dangerous dangerous … ;)

  • Do a more reliable check for old-style classes in debug.log

  • When weaving a class don’t weave attributes that are callable but are not actually routines (functions, methods etc)

0.5.0 (2014-03-16)

  • Changed obj:

    • Renamed arguments to call_args.

    • Renamed arguments_repr to call_args_repr.

    • Added call option.

    • Fixed issue with logging from old-style methods (object name was a generic “instance”).

  • Fixed issues with weaving some types of builtin methods.

  • Allow to apply multiple aspects at the same time.

  • Validate string targets before weaving. aspectlib.weave('mod.invalid name', aspect) now gives a clear error (invalid name is not a valid identifier)

  • Various documentation improvements and examples.

0.4.1 (2014-03-08)

  • Remove junk from 0.4.0’s source distribution.

0.4.0 (2014-03-08)

  • Changed obj:

    • Replaced only_methods, skip_methods, skip_magicmethods options with methods.

    • Renamed on_init option to lazy.

    • Added aliases option.

    • Replaced skip_subclasses option with subclasses.

  • Fixed weaving methods from a string target.

0.3.1 (2014-03-05)

  • ???

0.3.0 (2014-03-05)

  • First public release.
