NOTE: This is a question I found on StackOverflow which I’ve archived here, because the answer is so effing phenomenal.
If you are not into long explanations, see [Paolo Bergantino’s answer][2].

The best explanation of Python decorators I’ve ever seen. (An archived answer from StackOverflow.)
This snippet of code was posted in 2014 and slightly revised in 2016 and 2017. It was more of a quick'n'dirty script than a polished tool. It is made only for Linux and in Python 2, which has since become outdated.
I currently do not use it, and I suggest you avoid it as well. Please do not expect support for using this script.
🔥 If you need an alternative, @glaucocustodio has kindly suggested EasyVPN in this comment.
The rest of the README is left for historical purposed.

The code below does the same as the example snippet you've just seen: opening a database connection,
creating a new table with some columns, storing some data, altering the table schema and adding another row.
