Description

Hi, I'm trying to expose the method test of class Test using eel._expose(test, 'foo'), but I have an error: AssertionError: Already exposed function with name "test"

How to fix it?

Research direction
The error occurs in the ` expose` function within `eel/ init .py`. The assertion checks if a function with the same ` name ` is already exposed. The user's function is named `test`, causing the conflict. To fix, either rename the function or modify the ` expose` method to use the provided alias. Review the implementation at https://github.com/python eel/Eel/blob/master/eel/ init .py and the issue comments for potential solutions.
