Warning: this trick will make your code not working with tools like Pylint. Everything fails. I guess typing more characters at the end save the time in this case: see libraries like tqdm whose are primarily called with from tqdm import tqdm but they didn't apply this trick.

Not sure what you mean, like from mymodule import __call__ ?

| Jul 2, 2010 at 1:43 | comment | added | Roger Pate | @Longpoke: It would be cumbersome and inconsistent to import just call. Perhaps I could've phrased that better (when I asked this over a year ago), but it still appears that way to me. | |

| Jun 30, 2009 at 5:18 | comment | added | Roger Pate | I had also thought it could simplify some modules such as datetime and decimal, by making the module.__call__ be datetime.datetime or decimal.Decimal respectively. However, then type(decimal('1')) wouldn't be the same as decimal, and possible other issues. shrug It was an idea. | |
| Jun 30, 2009 at 5:15 | comment | added | Roger Pate | Migrating a decorator from a package into its own sub-module. @example(...) was by far still the most common use-case, but @example.special_case(...) was a new use. I didn't want to implement it with an example class and static methods, since that was a poor fit. Not sure a callable module is a better fit, but I started investigating it and then wanted to know why it didn't work. | |
