snakeoil.delayed package

Module contents

snakeoil.delayed.import_module(target: str, force_proxy=False) → ModuleType

Import a module at time of access if it’s not already imported. This is a shim for python’s lazy import in 3.15

Parameters:

• target – the python namespace path of what to import. snakeoil.klass for example.

• force_proxy – Even if the module is in sys.modules, still return a proxy. This is a break glass control only relevant for hard cycle breaking.

snakeoil.delayed.is_delayed(obj: Any) → bool

snakeoil.delayed.regexp(pattern, flags=0)

Compile a regular expression pattern, returning a Pattern object.
