python class AttributeError

The purpose of this script is:

• Read a group of csv files.

• Scrape the date and extract some features out of it.

• Merge these csv files into a single data frame.

• Import the final data frame into another class and print it.

Here is the code:

import pandas as pd
import os


class DataSource:
    def __init__(self):
        self.dfs = []
        self.final = pd.DataFrame()
        self.names = ['Date', 'Time', 'open', 'high', 'low', 'close', 'Volume']
        self.directory = os.chdir(r"C:\Users\Sayed\Desktop\forex")

    def merge(self):
        for file in os.listdir(self.directory):
            df = pd.read_csv(file, names=self.names,
                             parse_dates={'Release Date': ['Date', 'Time']})
            self.dfs.append(df)

        self.final = pd.concat(self.dfs, axis=0)
        self.final = self.final[['Release Date', 'open', 'high', 'low', 'close']]
        print(self.final.head())
        return self.final


class test():
    def __init__(self):
        self.df = DataSource.final

    def print(self):
        return print(self.df.head())

x = test()
x.print()

Here is the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "C:/Users/Sayed/PycharmProjects/project/hello.py", line 31, in x = test()

File "C:/Users/Sayed/PycharmProjects/project/hello.py", line 26, in init self.df = DataSource.final

AttributeError: type object 'DataSource' has no attribute 'final'

Your cannot access self.final property directly in your DataSource class. You need to instantiate it first. So your test class will more be like :

class test():
    def __init__(self):
        self.d = DataSource()
        self.df = self.d.merge()
    def print(self):
        return print(self.df.head())
