[QGIS-Developer] free variable 'self' referenced before assignment in enclosing scope

[Bjørn Burr Nyberg]

Dear QGIS community,

In the spirit of open-source I am trying to convert a set of scripts that ive designed in ArcMap to QGIS 3.x. I hope that this will enable a broader community of individuals to use the workflows ive designed. The original scripts can be found at https://github.com/BjornNyberg/NetworkGT/tree/master/Scripts

My problem is that in my first attempt to convert the scripts, QGIS either crashes or gives the following error. 

2019-01-30T16:51:27     WARNING    Traceback (most recent call last):
              File "C:/PROGRA~1/QGIS3~1.4/apps/qgis/./python/plugins\processing\gui\AlgorithmDialog.py", line 238, in on_complete
              self.feedback.pushInfo(self.tr('Execution completed in {0:0.2f} seconds').format(time.time() - start_time))
             NameError: free variable 'self' referenced before assignment in enclosing scope

I have established that this error occurs at the very end of the script when calling ' return {self.Branches:dest_id,self.Nodes:dest_id2}'. I do not believe that I have explicitly defined self  anywhere in the processAlgorithm function itself. The algorithms themselves work as intended and the shapefiles are created before the program crashes. 

I am not a programmer by trait so I'm not entirely sure how to problem solve this error and any help would be most appreciated. I can also provide a test dataset if that is helpful. 

Cheers,
Bjorn
