Hi,
it's pretty cool that 150 lines is enough to have this functionality.
This guard:
if sys.version_info[0] < 3:
raise NotImplementedError('This hook is implemented for Python 3 only')
Wouldn't it be better if the hook did nothing when on python 2?
I think it'll make it necessary to use something like
import sys
if sys.version_info[0] < 3:
import uprefix
uprefix.register_hook()
in the calling code to enable the code to run unchanged on both branches.
Also: have you though about providing a context manager which does
register_hook() in __enter__() and unregister_hook() in __exit__()?
I think that some code will want to enable the hook only for specific
modules. The number of lines could be minimized with something like this:
import uprefix
with uprefix.hook:
import abcde_with_u
import bcdef_with_u
import other_module_without_u
Regards,
Zbyszek
