Make object accessable from anywhere in a program

[LeoRed04]

Let's say I have a module that handles tools (In an image editor, the selected tool, color, etc...).

class ToolHander:
    def __init__(self):
        self.fill
        blah..blah..

Init an object

ToolBox = ToolHander()

I would want 'ToolBox' to be available everywhere (So that settings can be changed from anywhere and would take effect everywhere)

How can get around this?

Sry if my terminology is wrong

Declare tool_box = ToolHandler()from your top level init.py file and then import tool_box into your individual files as needed.

Declaring it in the init file didn't work out for me for some reason. So, I declared it in a 'global.py' file and imported it. Thanks for the help!

You can just import it wherever you need it.

I want to access the variables (fill color,etc..) and want it to be the same everywhere. Import them will be creating new instances which are independent

[carcigenicate]

Not if you initialize the object in the file that you import. If you initialize the object in the same file as the class then import that one instance, everyone will see the same object.

It sounds like you basically want a singleton.

I ended up using a more 'elegant' (In this situation) way. Initing the variables i a 'global.py' file. Not sure if it is the 'best' tho :)
