[QUESTION]Can Decorators take place of pyhooks?

[Shir0kamii]

Hi,

Pyhooks is in fact built to work with classes that you don't define yourself. You can use a simple decorator in this case because you define the DatabaseEntry class yourself. However, when you want to do this for a third party class, pyhooks will allow less boilerplate, as you won't have to override the function to change its behavior.

When you want to do that for one of your own classes, a simpler approach without pyhooks works better.

Thank @Shir0kamii ,i already know what does Pyhooks do.In general,Pyhooks is a wrapper around Decorators.If i want to implement AOP（Aspect Oriented Programming）,Pyhooks can let me implement it directly rather than by rewriting Decorators.On the other hand,it can be used by people who don't know much about Decorators.After all Decorators is too hard to understand with callbacks and parameters.By the way, i want to disclose the secret about the code is so hard to understand in order that I was already confused when I read it.
