Re: [Tutor] need some class / module help

[shawn bright]

oh, one more thing.
these objects are going to be created at the rate of about 20 / minute in a thread.
at some point is this going to be a problem ? do they go away over time?
Or do i need to write something that will kill them?

thanks

Hey thanks for the help,
yes, the class in in another file called group. the class Group is the only class in the module. I am doing this because the script that will call it is not the only place in all our scripts where it can be used. I have been doing stuff with python for over a year now, thought i would take advantage of some stuff that might save me some time.

thanks again

Hey there,

I am trying to create a module with one class
the module name is group.py

it looks like this so far

import DbConnector

class Group(object):

    def __init__(self, id):
        self.id = id
        con = DbConnector.DbConnector()
        query = con.getOne("select `name`, `position` from `groups` where `id` = '"+id+"' ")
        self.name = query[0]
        self.position = query[1]

    def set_position(position):
        self.position = position
        con.update("update `groups` set `position` = '"+self.position+"' where `id` = '"+self.id"' ")

now lets say i wanted to do

mygroup = Group.group(12)
position = mygroup.position() # gives me position of group where id = 12
mygroup.set_position(13) # changes value of position to 13

    Is this code in another module?
    If so you need:
import group
   and
mygroup = Group.group(12)
   should be (module name followed by class name)
mygroup = group.Group(12).

mygroup.position() # this is a call, and position is not callable.
    should be
mygroup.position

"select `name`, `position` from `groups` where `id` = '"+id+"' "
    is OK but an easier to read version is:
"select `name`, `position` from `groups` where `id` = '%s'" % (id,)

is this right?
i would test it here, but the database is not available. I am writing this to implement an easier way to code something very long later.

Just wanted to know if i am on the right track.

if you have read this far, thanks !
