Well, I thought that making it a file-like object could be useful:
that way, one could pass it to pickle.dump(), logging.StreamHandler or
any method expecting a file-like object, and would gain atomicity
(persistency) transparently, without refactoring.
My quick and dirty AtomicFile implementation reused the
_TemporaryFileWrapper attribute delagation trick:
"""
def __getattr__(self, name):
# Attribute lookups are delegated to the underlying file
# and cached for non-numeric results
# (i.e. methods are cached, closed and friends are not)
file = self.__dict__['file']
a = getattr(file, name)
if not issubclass(type(a), type(0)):
setattr(self, name, a)
return a

OK.
I don't have a strong opinion about this, and you've got much more
experience than me, so I trust your judgement ;-) |
