Component architecture for Twisted, based on Zope3 components.

Using the Zope3 API directly is strongly recommended. Everything you need is in the top-level of the zope.interface package, e.g.:

   from zope.interface import Interface, implementer

   class IFoo(Interface):
       pass

   @implementer(IFoo)
   class Foo:
       pass

   print(IFoo.implementedBy(Foo)) # True
   print(IFoo.providedBy(Foo())) # True

twisted.python.components.registerAdapter from this module may be used to add to Twisted's global adapter registry.

twisted.python.components.proxyForInterface is a factory for classes which allow access to only the parts of another class defined by a specified interface.

Class Adapter I am the default implementation of an Adapter for some interface.
Class Componentized I am a mixin to allow you to be adapted in various ways persistently.
Class ReprableComponentized Undocumented
Function getAdapterFactory Return registered adapter for a given class and interface.
Function getRegistry Returns the Twisted global zope.interface.adapter.AdapterRegistry instance.
Function proxyForInterface Create a class which proxies all method calls which adhere to an interface to another provider of that interface.
Function registerAdapter Register an adapter class.
Variable ALLOW_DUPLICATES Undocumented
Variable globalRegistry Undocumented
Class _ProxiedClassMethod A proxied class method.
Class _ProxyDescriptor A descriptor which will proxy attribute access, mutation, and deletion to the _ProxyDescriptor.originalAttribute of the object it is being accessed from.
Function _addHook Add an adapter hook which will attempt to look up adapters in the given registry.
Function _removeHook Remove a previously added adapter hook.
def getAdapterFactory(fromInterface, toInterface, default): (source)

Return registered adapter for a given class and interface.

Note that is tied to the *Twisted* global registry, and will thus not find adapters registered elsewhere.

def getRegistry(): (source)
Returns the Twisted global zope.interface.adapter.AdapterRegistry instance.
def proxyForInterface(iface, originalAttribute='original'): (source)

Create a class which proxies all method calls which adhere to an interface to another provider of that interface.

This function is intended for creating specialized proxies. The typical way to use it is by subclassing the result:

  class MySpecializedProxy(proxyForInterface(IFoo)):
      def someInterfaceMethod(self, arg):
          if arg == 3:
              return 3
          return self.original.someInterfaceMethod(arg)
Parameters
ifaceThe Interface to which the resulting object will conform, and which the wrapped object must provide.
originalAttribute:strname of the attribute used to save the original object in the resulting class. Default to original.
Returns
A class whose constructor takes the original object as its only argument. Constructing the class creates the proxy.
def registerAdapter(adapterFactory, origInterface, *interfaceClasses): (source)

Register an adapter class.

An adapter class is expected to implement the given interface, by adapting instances implementing 'origInterface'. An adapter class's __init__ method should accept one parameter, an instance implementing 'origInterface'.

def _addHook(registry): (source)
Add an adapter hook which will attempt to look up adapters in the given registry.
Parameters
registry:zope.interface.adapter.AdapterRegistryUndocumented
Returns
The hook which was added, for later use with _removeHook.
def _removeHook(hook): (source)
Remove a previously added adapter hook.
Parameters
hookAn object previously returned by a call to _addHook. This will be removed from the list of adapter hooks.
