Input/Output Processors with multiple arguments?

[Edward]

Hi,

I wondered if it was possible to define input/output processors with
multiple arguments?

I have this:

def function(x, y):
body = x.split("|")
for q in body:
if something specific to value y:
return x[some_index:]


Then, in my Item class I define a field as follows:

title = Field(input_processor=MapCompose(function, y="some value",
output_processor=Identity())

However, I get a TypeError when I try and run this, and I don't
understand how to declare the processor I want to use to the
MapCompose processor along with the second parameter.

Cheers!

I think you can use partial or better a class:

class MyProc(object):

def __init__(self, y):
self.y = y

def __call__(self, value):
# do something to value

proc = MapCompose(MyProc("foo"), MyProc("bar"))
