Making decorators with optional arguments [duplicate]

Answer 1

Enhanced Generic Decorator Decorator Code

Here's my adaption of @Nicole's answer with the following enhancements:

• optional kwargs may be passed to the decorated decorator
• the decorated decorator may be a bound method

import functools

def optional_arg_decorator(fn):
    @functools.wraps(fn)
    def wrapped_decorator(*args, **kwargs):
        is_bound_method = hasattr(args[0], fn.__name__) if args else False

        if is_bound_method:
            klass = args[0]
            args = args[1:]

        # If no arguments were passed...
        if len(args) == 1 and len(kwargs) == 0 and callable(args[0]):
            if is_bound_method:
                return fn(klass, args[0])
            else:
                return fn(args[0])

        else:
            def real_decorator(decoratee):
                if is_bound_method:
                    return fn(klass, decoratee, *args, **kwargs)
                else:
                    return fn(decoratee, *args, **kwargs)
            return real_decorator
    return wrapped_decorator
