¿Es posible encadenar metaclases?¿Mixina o encadenamiento de la clase?
Tengo clase Model que usa __metaclass__=ModelBase para procesar su espacio de nombres dict. Voy a heredar de él y "atar" otra metaclase para que no sombree la original.
primer enfoque es subclase class MyModelBase(ModelBase):
MyModel(Model):
__metaclass__ = MyModelBase # inherits from `ModelBase`
Pero es posible sólo para ellos como cadena mixins, sin subclases explícito? Algo así como
class MyModel(Model):
__metaclass__ = (MyMixin, super(Model).__metaclass__)
... o aún mejor: crear un MixIn que utilizará __metaclass__ de la matriz directa de la clase que lo utiliza:
class MyModel(Model):
__metaclass__ = MyMetaMixin, # Automagically uses `Model.__metaclass__`
La razón: Para una mayor flexibilidad al extender las aplicaciones existentes, quiero crear un mecanismo global para engancharme en el proceso de Model, Form, ... definiciones en Django, por lo que se puede cambiar en tiempo de ejecución.
Un mecanismo común sería mucho mejor que implementar múltiples metaclases con callins mixins.
Con su ayuda finalmente lograron llegar a una solución: metaclase MetaProxy.
La idea es: crear una metaclase que invoca una devolución de llamada para modificar el espacio de nombres de la clase se crea, entonces, con la ayuda de __new__, mutar en una metaclase de uno de los padres

class MetaProxy(type):
""" Decorate the class being created & preserve __metaclass__ of the parent
It executes two callbacks: before & after creation of a class,
that allows you to decorate them.
Between two callbacks, it tries to locate any `__metaclass__`
in the parents (sorted in MRO).
If found — with the help of `__new__` method it
mutates to the found base metaclass.
If not found — it just instantiates the given class.

En Python 3.4, esto no parece afirmarse correctamente; falla la línea 113 ('MyModel' no tiene el atributo' washere') – Joost
