In this tutorial, you'll learn about How to Fix Servant Errors. We cover key concepts, practical examples, and best practices.

Fix servant errors when utility method duplicated across classes or static helper smells.

Quick Fix

Wrong

class Circle:
    def move(self,dx,dy): self.x+=dx; self.y+=dy
class Square:
    def move(self,dx,dy): self.x+=dx; self.y+=dy  # duplicated!

move() method duplicated in every shape class. Same logic, different class.

class Movable:
    def move(self,dx,dy): self.x+=dx; self.y+=dy
class Circle(Movable):
    def __init__(self): self.x=0; self.y=0
class Square(Movable):
    def __init__(self): self.x=0; self.y=0
# Or servant pattern:
class MoveServant:
    @staticmethod
    def move_to(obj,dx,dy):
        obj.x+=dx; obj.y+=dy
c=Circle(); MoveServant.move_to(c,5,10)
Move logic encapsulated once in servant. Shared across classes without inheritance.

Prevention

Servant provides shared behavior to unrelated classes. Alternatively: mixin or trait.

FAQ

What is Servant?

Class providing common methods to unrelated classes. Behavior reuse without inheritance.

vs Mixin?

Servant: external class operating on objects. Mixin: inherited behavior.

When to use?

Operations applicable to heterogeneous types. Move, serialize, validate.
