Python doesn't directly support interfaces.
What most people for an interface is to create a class where
the methods raise a NotImplementedError. For example:
class MyInterface:
def method1():
raise NotImplementedError
def method2():
raise NotImplementedError
class MyClass (MyInterface):
"implements MyInterface"
def method1():
some code here...
def method2():
some code here...
But see this page for some attempts at creating interfaces
for Python: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/moinmoin/MetaClasses
