http://localhost/ticket/1778 <p> In many places we have @classmethods where simple module-level functions would do (and would be more idiomatic in Python), e.g. the <tt>get()</tt> classmethods in the model/ classes. </p> <p> Doing it with module functions lets us type module.function() instead of module.Class.method(). </p> <p> In many cases we're importing classes directly with <tt>from module import Class</tt> and then doing <tt>Class.method()</tt>, but <tt>from module import foo</tt> is bad style: <a class="ext-link" href="http://docs.python.org/dev/howto/doanddont.html"><span class="icon">​</span>http://docs.python.org/dev/howto/doanddont.html</a> </p> en-us http://assets.okfn.org/p/ckan/img/ckan_logo_shortname.png http://localhost/ticket/1778 Trac 0.12.3 kindly Mon, 18 Jun 2012 15:29:48 GMT http://localhost/ticket/1778#comment:1 http://localhost/ticket/1778#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>milestone</strong> changed from <em>ckan-v1.7</em> to <em>ckan-v1.8</em> </li> </ul> Ticket seanh Mon, 25 Jun 2012 11:28:29 GMT http://localhost/ticket/1778#comment:2 http://localhost/ticket/1778#comment:2 <ul> <li><strong>owner</strong> set to <em>seanh</em> </li> <li><strong>status</strong> changed from <em>new</em> to <em>assigned</em> </li> <li><strong>milestone</strong> changed from <em>ckan-v1.8</em> to <em>ckan-v1.9</em> </li> </ul> Ticket seanh Mon, 25 Jun 2012 11:29:03 GMT http://localhost/ticket/1778#comment:3 http://localhost/ticket/1778#comment:3 <ul> <li><strong>milestone</strong> changed from <em>ckan-v1.9</em> to <em>ckan-future</em> </li> </ul> Ticket
