This method will be called during machine-initialization and should yield a channel which will then be used for the machine. This method's return type is annotated as ``typing.ContextManager[channel.Channel]``, to allow more complex setup & teardown. As channels implement the context-manager protocol, simple connectors can just return the channel. A more complex connector can use the following pattern: .. code-block:: python import contextlib class MyConnector(Connector): @contextlib.contextmanager def _connect(self) -> typing.Iterator[channel.Channel]: try: # Do setup ... yield ch finally: # Do teardown ...

[docs] @classmethod def from_context( cls: typing.Type[Self], ctx: "tbot.Context" ) -> typing.ContextManager[Self]: """ Create this machine from a tbot context. This method defines how tbot can automatically attempt creating this machine from a given context. It is usually defined by the connector but might be overridden by board config in certain more complex scenarios. This method must return a context-manager that, upon entering, yields a **fully initialized** machine. In practical terms this means, the implementation must enter the "machine's context" as well. As an example, the most basic implementation would look like this: .. code-block:: python @contextlib.contextmanager def from_context(cls, ctx): # Create instance and enter its context, in this example, no # args are passed to the constructor ... with cls() as m: yield m """ raise NotImplementedError( f"connector of {cls!r} does not (yet) implement from_context()" )
[docs] @abc.abstractmethod def clone(self: Self) -> Self: """ Create a duplicate of this machine. For a lot of connections, it is trivial to open a second one in parallel. This can be exploited to easily connect further from one host to the next, thus building a tunnel. On the other hand, a serial connection to a board is unique and can't be cloned. Such connectors should raise an exception is ``.clone()`` is called. .. note:: **Important**: You should **always** set the new machines ``_orig`` attribute to the original machine (either ``self._orig`` or, if that is ``None``, ``self``) so tbot knows these machines belong together! The common pattern is: .. code-block:: python def clone(self): new = ... new._orig = self._orig or self return new Not setting ``_orig`` means that tbot will treat the new and old instances as separate machines which (theoretically) can't interact with each other.
