Contract.base_contracts()

Returns Contracts object for the contracts from which contract was inherited directly or indirectly.

base_contracts() → Contracts

It returns the Contracts object representing the base contracts of a Contract. The function is recursive. See the example.

Example query

from glider import *

def query():
  contracts = Contracts().exec(1, 6)
  
  names = []
  for contract in contracts:
    bases = contract.base_contracts().exec()

    for base in bases:
      names.append(base.name)

  return [{"names": names}]

Example output

{
  "names": [
    "Context",
    "ERC165",
    "IERC165",
    "IERC721",
    "IERC721Metadata"
  ]
}

If you add print(contract.source_code()) to the loop, you will see these contracts in the declaration: contract ERC721 is Context, ERC165, IERC721, IERC721Metadata. Note that the function outputs IERC165, though it is not directly inherited.
