views.Feed methods cannot be decorated

[Germano Gabbianelli]

If one applies a decorator on a method which is called by __get_dynamic_attr a TypeError like this occurs:

Exception Type: TypeError at /blog/feed/
Exception Value: item_link() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)

I think this is because __get_dynamic_attr tries to count the function's arguments, but decorators usally get defined with the *args, **kwargs syntax, so this trick does not work here.

            if code.co_argcount == 2:       # one argument is 'self'
                return attr(obj)
            else:
                return attr()

I think the best approach would be to remove one of the two methods. IMHO We should have either attr(item) or attr() not both, as "there should be one, and preferably only one, obvious way to do it".

Yes, that code is fragile.

I reproduced it. I'm working now on fix.

sample project, which show how patch works now

I sended pull request.

The problem is that methods without the 'item' argument (only with self) should be static now.
But the decorators works now (sample project is in attachments)

    @staticmethod
    def item_description(self):
        return force_text(item)
