Hello Today I've tried to write a one-liner for a decorator, The decorator is a method in a class. I wanted to do something like this: @Class().decorator() def function(): ... That threw a syntax error to my surprise. But the semantic is correct, since I am currently writing: obj = Class() @obj.decorator() def function(): ... And I can also write dec = Class().decorator @dec() def function(): ... Is there something obvious I am missing, or is there a weird thing in the way decoratirs are parsed ? Demo:
class Some(object): ... def stuff(self, func): ... return func ... s = Some() @s.stuff ... def ok(): ... print 'ok' ... ok() ok s = Some().stuff @s ... def ok(): ... print 'ok' ... ok() ok @Some().stuff File "<stdin>", line 1 @Some().stuff ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax
