blinker_herald 0.1.0

Features

• All the features provided by blinker

• • An easy decorator @emit() to magically emit signals when your functions are called and before it returns a result.

• Customizable for your needs

Let’s say you have a class that does something:

from blinker_herald import emit

class SomeClass(object):
    @emit()
    def do_something(self, arg1):
        # here is were magically the 'pre' signal will be sent
        return 'something done'
        # here is were magically the 'post' signal will be sent

using @emit decorator makes blinker_herald to emit a signal for that method and now you can connect handlers to capture that signals

You can capture pre signal to manipulate the object:

SomeClass.do_something.pre.connect
def handle_pre(sender, signal_emitter, **kwargs):
    signal_emitter.foo = 'bar'
    signal_emitter.do_another_thing()

And you can also capture the post signal to log the results:

SomeClass.do_something.post.connect
def handle_post(sender, signal_emitter, result, **kwargs):
    logger.info("The method {0} returned {1}".format(sender, result))
