data class autoregister


  • hi
    I dont understand how DataCls is autoregistered in backtrader.stores.IBStore.
    The code in backtrader.stores.ibstore:

    class IBStore(with_metaclass(metasingleton,object)):
    #######
    DataCls = None # DataCls will autoregister?
    @classmethed
    def getdata(##):
        return cls.DataCls(###)

    When I create a Singleton of class IBStore by

    store = backtrader.stores.IBStore(####)

    and then I can get a ibdata instance by calling the store's method as your doc explained:

    data = store.getdata(####)

    so how it is done?

    Because the data feed IBData registers itself in the store overwriting DataCls. This would allow anyone to write a different version of IBData (call it MyIBData), which would again overwrite the value of DataCls in the store.

    And consequently, getdata would return an instance of MyIBData
