Execute python method from a string

Question

I have a string that has the method name and value in it. Currently, I'm using the following implementation which works but doesn't seem elegant. Is there a better way to implement this?

class ObjectResolver:

    def methodResolver(self, value):
        """Some logic here"""
        print(value)


objectResolver = ObjectResolver()

channel = 'methodResolver(helloWorld)'

findValue = channel.strip().find('(')
objectMethod = channel.strip()[:findValue]
attribute = channel.strip()[findValue:][1:-1]

channelResolver = getattr(objectResolver, objectMethod)(attribute)

Output:

helloWorld

Answer 1

The best method I found is to use eval here and specifically to my question above, the implementation is as follows:

class ObjectResolver:

    def methodResolver(self, value):
        """Some logic here"""
        print(value)


objectResolver = ObjectResolver()

channel = "methodResolver('helloWorld')"
handlers = dict(methodResolver=objectResolver.methodResolver)
eval(channel, handlers)
