146class FactoryBase(grok.GlobalUtility):
147    """A factory for things.
148
149    This is a baseclass for easier creation of factories. Factories
150    are utilities that are registered under a certain name and return
151    instances of certain classes when called.
152
153    In :mod:`waeup.kofa` we use factories extensively for
154    batching. While processing a batch some processors looks up a
155    factory to create real-world instances that then get filled with
156    data from imported CSV files.
157
158    To get rid of reimplementing the same stuff over and over again,
159    most notably the methods defined here, we offer this base class
160    (which will *not* be registered as a factory itself).
161
162    Real factories can then be created like this:
163
164       >>> import grok
165       >>> from waeup.kofa.utils.helpers import FactoryBase
166       >>> class MyObject(object):
167       ...   # Some class we want to get instances of.
168       ...   pass
169       >>> class MyObjectFactory(FactoryBase):
170       ...   # This is the factory for MyObject instances
171       ...   grok.name(u'waeup.kofa.factory.MyObject')
172       ...   factory = MyObject
173
174    That's it. It is essential to set the ``factory`` attribute, which
175    will determine the class of which instances should be created when
176    called. The given name must even be unique amongst all utilities
177    registered during runtime. While you can pick any name you like
178    you might want to prepend ``waeup.kofa.factory.`` to the name
179    string to make sure it does not clash with names of other
180    utilities one day.
181
182    Before all this works we have to grok the baseclass once and our
183    freshly defined factory. This executes all the component
184    registration stuff we don't want to do ourselves. In daily use
185    this is done automatically on startup of a :mod:`waeup.kofa`
186    system.
187
188       >>> grok.testing.grok('waeup.kofa.utils.helpers')
189       >>> grok.testing.grok_component(
190       ...    'MyObjectFactory', MyObjectFactory
191       ...  )
192       True
193
194    After grokking we (and processors) can create objects without
195    knowing about the location of the real class definition, just by
196    the factory name:
197
198       >>> from zope.component import createObject
199       >>> obj = createObject('waeup.kofa.factory.MyObject')
200       >>> isinstance(obj, MyObject)
201       True
202
203    We can also use the regular utility lookups to find our new
204    factory:
205
206       >>> from zope.component import getUtility
207       >>> from zope.component.interfaces import IFactory
208       >>> factory = getUtility(
209       ...   IFactory, name='waeup.kofa.factory.MyObject'
210       ...   )
211       >>> isinstance(factory, MyObjectFactory)
212       True
213
214    And this factory generates `MyObject` instances:
215
216       >>> obj = factory()
217       >>> isinstance(obj, MyObject)
218       True
