How would you apply a decorator to a class method that needs to access the class itself?

  • Use a class method decorator with @classmethod
  • Use a function decorator with @func
  • Use a property decorator with @property
  • Use a static method decorator with @staticmethod
To apply a decorator to a class method that needs to access the class itself, you should use a class method decorator with @classmethod. Class methods have access to the class itself as their first argument, conventionally named cls. Static methods do not have access to the class, and property decorators are used to define getter, setter, and deleter methods for class attributes. Function decorators without specifying @func are not standard in Python.
