155class FactoryBase(grok.GlobalUtility):
156    """A factory for things.
157
158    This is a baseclass for easier creation of factories. Factories
159    are utilities that are registered under a certain name and return
160    instances of certain classes when called.
161
162    In :mod:`waeup.kofa` we use factories extensively for
163    batching. While processing a batch some processors looks up a
164    factory to create real-world instances that then get filled with
165    data from imported CSV files.
166
167    To get rid of reimplementing the same stuff over and over again,
168    most notably the methods defined here, we offer this base class
169    (which will *not* be registered as a factory itself).
170
171    Real factories can then be created like this:
172
173       >>> import grok
174       >>> from waeup.kofa.utils.helpers import FactoryBase
175       >>> class MyObject(object):
176       ...   # Some class we want to get instances of.
177       ...   pass
178       >>> class MyObjectFactory(FactoryBase):
179       ...   # This is the factory for MyObject instances
180       ...   grok.name(u'waeup.kofa.factory.MyObject')
181       ...   factory = MyObject
182
183    That's it. It is essential to set the ``factory`` attribute, which
184    will determine the class of which instances should be created when
185    called. The given name must even be unique amongst all utilities
186    registered during runtime. While you can pick any name you like
187    you might want to prepend ``waeup.kofa.factory.`` to the name
188    string to make sure it does not clash with names of other
189    utilities one day.
190
191    Before all this works we have to grok the baseclass once and our
192    freshly defined factory. This executes all the component
193    registration stuff we don't want to do ourselves. In daily use
194    this is done automatically on startup of a :mod:`waeup.kofa`
195    system.
196
197       >>> grok.testing.grok('waeup.kofa.utils.helpers')
198       >>> grok.testing.grok_component(
199       ...    'MyObjectFactory', MyObjectFactory
200       ...  )
201       True
202
203    After grokking we (and processors) can create objects without
204    knowing about the location of the real class definition, just by
205    the factory name:
206
207       >>> from zope.component import createObject
208       >>> obj = createObject('waeup.kofa.factory.MyObject')
209       >>> isinstance(obj, MyObject)
210       True
211
212    We can also use the regular utility lookups to find our new
213    factory:
214
215       >>> from zope.component import getUtility
216       >>> from zope.component.interfaces import IFactory
217       >>> factory = getUtility(
218       ...   IFactory, name='waeup.kofa.factory.MyObject'
219       ...   )
220       >>> isinstance(factory, MyObjectFactory)
221       True
222
223    And this factory generates `MyObject` instances:
224
225       >>> obj = factory()
226       >>> isinstance(obj, MyObject)
227       True
