:mod:`copyreg` --- Register :mod:`pickle` support functions
|
|
===========================================================
|
|
|
|
.. module:: copyreg
|
|
:synopsis: Register pickle support functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. index::
|
|
module: pickle
|
|
module: copy
|
|
|
|
The :mod:`copyreg` module offers a way to define functions used while pickling
|
|
specific objects. The :mod:`pickle` and :mod:`copy` modules use those functions
|
|
when pickling/copying those objects. The module provides configuration
|
|
information about object constructors which are not classes.
|
|
Such constructors may be factory functions or class instances.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. function:: constructor(object)
|
|
|
|
Declares *object* to be a valid constructor. If *object* is not callable (and
|
|
hence not valid as a constructor), raises :exc:`TypeError`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. function:: pickle(type, function, constructor=None)
|
|
|
|
Declares that *function* should be used as a "reduction" function for objects
|
|
of type *type*. *function* should return either a string or a tuple
|
|
containing two or three elements.
|
|
|
|
The optional *constructor* parameter, if provided, is a callable object which
|
|
can be used to reconstruct the object when called with the tuple of arguments
|
|
returned by *function* at pickling time. :exc:`TypeError` will be raised if
|
|
*object* is a class or *constructor* is not callable.
|
|
|
|
See the :mod:`pickle` module for more details on the interface
|
|
expected of *function* and *constructor*. Note that the
|
|
:attr:`~pickle.Pickler.dispatch_table` attribute of a pickler
|
|
object or subclass of :class:`pickle.Pickler` can also be used for
|
|
declaring reduction functions.
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
The example below would like to show how to register a pickle function and how
|
|
it will be used:
|
|
|
|
>>> import copyreg, copy, pickle
|
|
>>> class C(object):
|
|
... def __init__(self, a):
|
|
... self.a = a
|
|
...
|
|
>>> def pickle_c(c):
|
|
... print("pickling a C instance...")
|
|
... return C, (c.a,)
|
|
...
|
|
>>> copyreg.pickle(C, pickle_c)
|
|
>>> c = C(1)
|
|
>>> d = copy.copy(c)
|
|
pickling a C instance...
|
|
>>> p = pickle.dumps(c)
|
|
pickling a C instance...
