Sidestepping the issue of whether action should be part of the class, action could be defined as a static method (@staticmethod def action(func)...).

@chepner: sure, but that doesn't make the static method any more useful.

what if we want to call another method of SomeClass in action? We cannot access methods and properties of an instance of SomeClass using self.

@ddzzbbwwmm: there is no class yet when running the code inside the class body. You can treat it as a local namespace in a function instead, so reference other functions by their name.
