class Method:
def __init__(self,command):
eval('Method.command')
def send_msg(self):
return True
I am looking forward to get True with print(Method(send_msg)) but instead it raises the following error.
NameError: name 'send_msg' is not defined
How can I resolve this problem?
it's exactly what it says. send_msg by itself has no meaning. You need a Method object first. So Method(some_command).send_msg() would work. This is assuming whatever you pass in as the command works. but send_msg is a function that will only ever be accessible once you have an object.
Edit 1
I don't see any reason to use an object here. There are a lot of different ways to accomplish what you want. What I usually do is something like this.
map = {}
def decorator(func):
map[func.__name__] = func
return func
@decorator
def send_msg(msg):
return True
received_input = 'send_msg'
print(map)
print(map[received_input]('a message'))
If you absolutely must have an object, then there are other things we could look at doing. Does this help?
send_msg is a function that will only ever be accessible once you have an object is this statement really true? Isn't there any way to call my function in a parameter?
Method
send_msgis not defined... Define it. But really, what you are trying to do here is almost certainly not the right way of doing things.Method(doSomething)
