class entities.entity.Entity(index, caching=True)[source]

Bases: _entities._entity.BaseEntity, _memory.Pointer

Class used to interact directly with entities.

Beside the standard way of doing stuff via methods and properties this class also provides dynamic attributes that depend on the entity that is being accessed with this class. You can print all dynamic properties by iterating over the following generators:

  1. properties
  2. inputs
  3. outputs
  4. keyvalues
Variables:
  • cache –

    A read-only attribute that returns a dictionary containing the cached instances of this class.

    Note

    This is not an instance property, so it can only be accessed through the class itself.

  • caching – A read-only attribute that returns whether this class is caching its instances by default.
__init__(index, caching=True)[source]

Initialize the Entity instance.

Parameters:
  • index (int) – The entity index to wrap.
  • caching (bool) – Whether to lookup the cache for an existing instance or not.
call_input(name, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Call the input function matching the given name.

Parameters:
  • name (str) – Name of the input function.
  • args – Optional arguments that should be passed to the input function.
  • kwargs – Optional keyword arguments that should be passed to the input function.
Raises:

ValueError – Raised if the input function wasn’t found.
delay(delay, callback, args=(), kwargs=None, cancel_on_level_end=False)[source]

Create the delay which will be stopped after removing the entity.

Parameters:
  • delay (float) – The delay in seconds.
  • callback – A callable object that should be called after the delay expired.
