ihook 0.1.1

`ihook` is a Python module that allows you to configure functions to call when importing modules.

ihook

ihook is a Python module that allows you to configure functions to call when importing modules. It supports both case-sensitive and case-insensitive module names and can handle hooks for modules that are imported using methods of importlib.

Features

• Hook for modules that are imported.
• Support for case-sensitive and case-insensitive module names.
• Chain multiple hooks for the same or different modules.
• Handle hooks for sub-packages and namespace packages.

Installation

You can install ihook using pip:

pip install ihook

Usage

Registering Hooks

You can register hooks using the @on_import decorator or by calling the on_import function directly.

Using the Decorator

import ihook

@ihook.on_import('math')
def on_math_import():
    print('math module imported')

import math  # This will trigger the hook and print 'math module imported'

Using the Function Directly

import ihook

def on_socket_import():
    print('socket module imported')

ihook.on_import('socket', on_socket_import)

import socket  # This will trigger the hook and print 'socket module imported'

Case-Insensitive Hooks

You can register hooks for module names in a case-insensitive manner by setting the case_sensitive parameter to False.

import ihook

@ihook.on_import('SocKet', case_sensitive=False)
def on_socket_import():
    print('socket module imported (case-insensitive)')

import socket  # This will trigger the hook and print 'socket module imported (case-insensitive)'

Hooks with Module Information

You can define hooks that take a ModuleInfo parameter, which provides more detailed information about the imported module. You can handle direct access to the module object using the module_object attribute.

import ihook

@ihook.on_import('socket')
def on_socket_import(module_info: ihook.ModuleInfo):
    print(f'{module_info.module_name} module imported')
    print(f'Module object: {module_info.module_object}')

import socket  # This will trigger the hook and print module information

Clearing Hooks

You can clear all registered hooks using the clear_hooks function.

import ihook

ihook.clear_hooks()  # This will clear all registered hooks

Advanced Usage

Handling Importlib

You can register hooks for modules that are imported or reloaded using importlib.

import ihook

@ihook.on_import('hashlib')
def on_hashlib_import():
    print('hashlib module imported')

import importlib
hashlib = importlib.import_module('hashlib')  # This will trigger the hook and print 'hashlib module imported'
importlib.reload(hashlib)  # This will trigger the hook again and print 'hashlib module imported'
