读Flask源代码学习Python--config原理


读Flask源代码学习Python--config原理

个人学习笔记,水平有限。如果理解错误的地方,请大家指出来,谢谢!第一次写文章,发现好累--!。

起因

  莫名其妙在第一份工作中使用了从来没有接触过的Python,从那之后就对Python有了莫名其妙的好感。前段时间用了Flask做了几个不大不小的项目,项目过程中学到不少以前没注意到的知识点。于是就有了这个系列,希望最后能坚持完成。

Flask是什么?

  根据Flask官网介绍: Flask 是一个用于 Python 的微型网络开发框架。

Flask, HelloWorld!

from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def index():
    return "Flask, HelloWorld!"

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run(host="localhost", port=5000, debug=True)

这个系列我会怎样读Flask源码?

  我会根据一个问题的回答顺序进行来进行这个系列的文章。该问题地址。

  1. config原理。
  2. import原理。
  3. WSGI接口调用。
  4. 路由原理。
  5. 理解session。
  6. 理解threading.local。
  7. 理解flask自己封装的thread local。
  8. 理解g和request。
  9. 理解app context和request context。

  后续如果个人水平提高了,会从更高的层面继续这个系列。

根据官方教程, Flask中常见Config用法有以下几种。

  1. 直接赋值。
  2. 通过config的update方法一次更新多个属性值。
  3. 部分配置值可以通过属性赋值。
  4. 通过文件读取初始化config信息。

直接赋值

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['DEBUG'] = True

  从中可以猜测config可能是一个字典或者至少提供一个通过key获取对应值的方法。

class Flask(_PackageBoundObject):
    #: The class that is used for the ``config`` attribute of this app.
    #: Defaults to :class:`~flask.Config`.
    #:
    #: Example use cases for a custom class:
    #:
    #: 1. Default values for certain config options.
    #: 2. Access to config values through attributes in addition to keys.
    #:
    #: .. versionadded:: 1.0
    config_class = Config

    def __init__(self, import_name, static_path=None, static_url_path=None,
             static_folder='static', template_folder='templates',
             instance_path=None, instance_relative_config=False,
             root_path=None):
        self.config = self.make_config(instance_relative_config)

    def make_config(self, instance_relative=False):
        """Used to create the config attribute by the Flask constructor.
        The `instance_relative` parameter is passed in from the constructor
        of Flask (there named `instance_relative_config`) and indicates if
        the config should be relative to the instance path or the root path
        of the application.

        .. versionadded:: 0.8
        """
        root_path = self.root_path
        if instance_relative:
            root_path = self.instance_path
        return self.config_class(root_path, self.default_config)


    def from_envvar(self, variable_name, silent=False):
        pass

    def from_pyfile(self, filename, silent=False):
        pass

    def from_object(self, obj):
        pass

    def from_json(self, filename, silent=False):
        pass

    def from_mapping(self, *mapping, **kwargs):
        pass

    def get_namespace(self, namespace, lowercase=True, trim_namespace=True):
        pass

  这是最新的Flask源代码,它出现在app.py文件中的Flask的类定义中。config_class默认值为Config类,Config类又是什么?
  在config.py文件中,有下面这样的代码块。

class Config(dict):
    """Works exactly like a dict but provides ways to fill it from files
    or special dictionaries.
    """

    def __init__(self, root_path, defaults=None):
        dict.__init__(self, defaults or {})
        self.root_path = root_path

  从Config的构造函数和make_config方法中,可以看到之前猜测config是一个字典的结论确实是正确的。

通过config的update方法一次更新多个属性值。

  有了app的config属性是一个字典这个事实,通过update方法更新多个属性值就很好理解了。

app.config.update(
    DEBUG=True,
    SECRET_KEY='maeorwmarfomferw')
知识点

  类属性(class attribute)和对象属性(object attribute,有时候也称为实例属性)

  注意,这里config_class是一个Flask的类属性,但是却好像“被当作对象属性”使用。

self.config_class(root_path, self.default_config)

  这又是怎么一回事?首先,先来看看下面这段示例代码。

def attribute_step_001():

    class ClassAttribute(object):
        
        class_attribute = "class_attribute_001"

        def __init__(self):
            super(ClassAttribute, self).__init__()
            self.object_attribute = "object_attribute_002"

    class ClassAttributeWithOverrideGetAttr(object):
        
        class_attribute = "class_attribute_001"

        def __init__(self):
            super(ClassAttributeWithOverrideGetAttr, self).__init__()
            self.class_attribute = "object_attribute_001"
            self.object_attribute = "object_attribute_002"

        def __getattr__(self, attributename):
            pass

    print("=== two ===")
    two = ClassAttributeWithOverrideGetAttr()
    print(two.__dict__)
    print(two.class_attribute)
    print(two.class_attribute_no_exist)

    print("=== one ===")
    one = ClassAttribute()
    print(one.__dict__)
    print(one.class_attribute)
    print(one.class_attribute_no_exist) #tip001这一行可以注释掉,重新运行一遍这样输出比较清晰。


attribute_step_001()

  执行之后输出的结果是:

=== two ===
{'class_attribute': 'object_attribute_001', 'object_attribute': 'object_attribute_002'}
object_attribute_001
None

=== one ===
{'object_attribute': 'object_attribute_002'}
class_attribute_001
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\work_space\Dev_For_Python\flask_hello_world\application.py", line 128, in <module>
    attribute_step_001()
  File "D:\work_space\Dev_For_Python\flask_hello_world\application.py", line 125, in attribute_step_001
    print(one.class_attribute_no_exist)
AttributeError: 'ClassAttribute' object has no attribute 'class_attribute_no_exist'

  从结果可以发现,当获取一个对象属性时,如果它没有进行设置的话,默认返回的是这个这个对象的类型的同名类属性的值(如果同名类属性存在的话)。

实际上Python获取一个属性值(objectname.attributename)的搜索流程是(新式类):

1:如果attributename对于对象来说是一个特殊的(比如是Python提供的)属性,直接返回它。
2:从对象的__dict__(obj.__dict__)查找。
3:从对象的类型的__dict__(obj.__class__.__dict__)中查找。
4:从对象类型的基类中obj.__class__.__bases__.__dict__查找,基类的基类,直到object。如果__bases__中有多个值,最后的结果依赖于Python的方法解析顺序(MRO)。
5:如果上面都没有找到并且对象的类定义中重写__getattr__(self, attributename)方法,那么会得到对应的返回值。如果没有重写__getattr__(self, attributename)方法,Python会抛出异常AttributeError。

部分配置值可以通过属性赋值

app = Flask(__name__)
app.debug = True

  这些配置值为什么能直接通过属性赋值?答案还是在Flask类和ConfigAttribute类的定义中。

#Flask类定义代码片段
class Flask(_PackageBoundObject):
    debug = ConfigAttribute('DEBUG')
    testing = ConfigAttribute('TESTING')
    session_cookie_name = ConfigAttribute('SESSION_COOKIE_NAME')
    send_file_max_age_default = ConfigAttribute('SEND_FILE_MAX_AGE_DEFAULT',
    get_converter=_make_timedelta)

    def __init__(self, import_name, static_path=None, static_url_path=None,
             static_folder='static', template_folder='templates',
             instance_path=None, instance_relative_config=False,
             root_path=None):
        pass

#ConfigAttribute类定义代码片段
class ConfigAttribute(object):
    """Makes an attribute forward to the config"""

    def __init__(self, name, get_converter=None):
        self.__name__ = name
        self.get_converter = get_converter

    def __get__(self, obj, type=None):
        if obj is None:
            return self
        rv = obj.config[self.__name__]
        if self.get_converter is not None:
            rv = self.get_converter(rv)
        return rv

    def __set__(self, obj, value):
        obj.config[self.__name__] = value

  在Flask类的类定义中可以看到debug被定义成一个ConfigAttribute对象。ConfigAttribute是什么东西?为什么通过app.config["debug"]=false和app.debug=false得到的效果是一样的?这得从Python的描述符说起。

知识点

  • Python描述符(也有文章称为描述器)

  什么是描述符?官方给的定义是:

In general, a descriptor is an object attribute with “binding behavior”, one whose attribute access has been overridden by methods in the descriptor protocol. Those methods are__get__(), __set__(), and __delete__(). If any of those methods are defined for an object, it is said to be a descriptor.

  简单的说,只要一个对象实现了描述符协议中的任一方法,那么就可以称之为描述符。描述符协议有哪些方法?

"""
描述符中定义的方法
"""
descriptor.__get__(self, obj, type=None) --> value
descriptor.__set__(self, obj, value) --> None
descriptor.__delete__(self, obj) --> None

  这是描述符协议的所有方法。一个对象只要重写了上面任意一个方法就可以称之为描述符。这里还有几个概念需要提的是,如果一个对象同时定义了__get__()和__set__(),它叫做数据描述符(data descriptor)。仅定义了__get__()的描述符叫非数据描述符(non-data descriptor)。

"""
这是描述符的示例代码,通过代码了解下描述符。
"""
class DataDescriptor(object):
    """
    这是一个数据描述符
    """

    def __init__(self):
        pass

    def __get__(self, obj, objtype):
        return "value from DataDescriptor"

    def __set__(self, obj, val):
        pass


    def __delete__(self, obj):
        pass


class NoDataDescriptor(object):
    """
    这是一个非数据描述符
    """

    def __init__(self):
        pass

    def __get__(self, obj, objtype):
        return "value from DataDescriptor"


def attribute_test_001():


    class ClassAttributeWithOverrideGetAttr(object):

        
        class_attribute = "class_attribute_001"
        class_attribute2 = NoDataDescriptor()

        def __init__(self):
            super(ClassAttributeWithOverrideGetAttr, self).__init__()
            self.class_attribute = "object_attribute_001"

            self.class_attribute2 = "object_attribute_003"

        def __getattr__(self, attributename):
            return "value from __getattr__"

    print("=== ClassAttributeWithOverrideGetAttr ===")
    a = ClassAttributeWithOverrideGetAttr()
    print("[a01]: a.__dict__                 = ", a.__dict__)

    print("[a05]: a.class_attribute_no_exist = ", a.class_attribute_no_exist)

    print("\r\n=== ClassAttribute ===")
    b = ClassAttribute()
    print("[b01]: b.__dict__                   = ", b.__dict__)

    print("[b05]: b.class_attribute_no_exist = ", b.class_attribute_no_exist)
attribute_test_001()

  代码的输出结果是:

=== ClassAttributeWithOverrideGetAttr ===
[a01]: a.__dict__                 =  {'class_attribute2': 'object_attribute_003', 'class_attribute': 'object_attribute_001', 'object_attribute': 'object_attribute_002'}

从两组输出我们可以得出的结论有:
1: 对比a01, a02, a03 ===> 实例字典和类属性中都存在同样key的时候,实例字典(obj.__dict__) > 类属性(obj.__class__.__dict__)
2: 对比b01, b02, b03 ===> 实例字典不存在key的时候,会返回同名key的类属性的值。
3: 对比a05, b05 ===> 实例字典和类属性都不存在key的时候,会返回重写的(__getattr__)函数的返回值,如果没有重写的话,会抛出异常AttributeError。
4: 对比a04, a04 ===> 实例字典和类属性都存在key的时候,数据描述符 > 实例字典(obj.__dict__) > 非数据描述符。

  描述符的调用逻辑。

  当Python获取一个属性时(objectname.attributename),** 发现要获取的属性是描述符时 **,它的搜索流程会有所改变,转而调用描述的方法。注意,描述符只适用于新式的类和对象。

  1. 如果attributename对于对象来说是一个特殊的(比如是Python提供的)属性,直接返回它。
  2. 从objectname.__class__.__dict__查找attributename,如果找到并且attributename是一个** 数据描述符 **,那么就返回数据描述符的执行结果。(objectname.__class__.__dict__["attributename"].__get__(objectname, type(objectname)))。在objectname.__class__全部基类中进行同样的搜索。
  3. 从对象的__dict__(objectname.__dict__)查找,找到就返回,不管是否为数据描述符。唯一的区别是,如果是数据描述符就返回描述符(__get__逻辑的返回值)。
  4. 从对象的类型的__dict__(objectname.__class__.__dict__)中查找。
  5. 从对象类型的基类中objectname.__class__.__bases__.__dict__查找,找到就返回,不管是否为数据描述符。唯一的区别是,如果是非数据描述符就返回描述符(__get__逻辑的返回值)。PS:这里不用考虑搜索到数据描述符的情况,因为第二步已经把所有数据描述符的情况考虑在内了。
  6. 如果上面都没有找到并且对象的类定义中重写__getattr__(self, attributename)方法,那么会得到对应的返回值。如果没有重写__getattr__(self, attributename)方法,Python会抛出异常AttributeError。

  通过上面的知识点,可以清楚的知道,首先app.debug是一个数据描述符,其次:当通过app.debug = True对配置值就行修改的时候,实际上调用的是描述符的逻辑type(app).__dict__["debug"].__get__(app, type(app)),最后通过ConfigAttribute中重写的__get__逻辑,可以看出还是修改了app.config字典中key为debug的值。

  最后,对Python涉及到的几点进行总结。
1:在没有描述符出现的的情况下,实例字典(obj.__dict__) > 类属性(obj.__class__.__dict__) > __getattr__()方法 > 抛出异常AttributeError
2:数据描述符 > 实例字典(obj.__dict__) > 非数据描述符。
3:Python中有几个内置的描述符:函数,属性(property), 静态方法(static method) 感兴趣的自行查找相关文章研究下。

通过文件读取初始化config信息。

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config.from_object('yourapplication.default_settings')
app.config.from_envvar('YOURAPPLICATION_SETTINGS')

通过上面这几种方法初始化config信息的源代码都相对简单。个人觉得没有什么好分析的。
