Object

class geodesic.entanglement.object.Object(**obj)

Object represents a node in a graph in Entanglement.

Objects are classified by their class (keyword: object_class), domain, category, type, and name. These values uniquely identify an object. Name and class must be specified, but the rest can remain empty if desired. These properties help to categorize nodes that are similar in name, but represent different things.

Object also has a metaclass, so calling the Object constructer may return a different type based on the specified object_class (or class if created using a dictionary.).
