Title Body

I am trying to dynamically create module level functions from the methods in a class. So for every method in a class, I want to create a function with the same name which creates an instance of the class and then calls the method. The reason I want to do this is so I can take an object-oriented approach to creating Fabric files. Since Fabric will call module level functions but not methods of a class, this is my work-around. I have used the following links to get me started How do I get list of methods in a Python class? dynamically adding functions to a Python module How do I call setattr() on the current module? The Python getattr Function Calling a function of a module by using its name (a string) How to modify the local namespace in python And I have come up with the following code import inspect import sys import types class TestClass(object): def __init__(self): pass def method1(self, arg1): print 'method 1 %s' % arg1 def method2(self): print 'method 2' def fabric_class_to_function_magic(module_name): # get the module as an object print module_name module_obj = sys.modules[module_name] print dir(module_obj) # Iterate over the methods of the class
