evennia.web.website.views.mixins

These are mixins for class-based views, granting functionality.

class evennia.web.website.views.mixins.TypeclassMixin

Bases: object

This is a “mixin”, a modifier of sorts.

Django views typically work with classes called “models.” Evennia objects are an enhancement upon these Django models and are called “typeclasses.” But Django itself has no idea what a “typeclass” is.

For the sake of mitigating confusion, any view class with this in its inheritance list will be modified to work with Evennia Typeclass objects or Django models interchangeably.
