Overview

acris is a python library providing useful programming patterns and tools.

acris started as Acrisel’s internal idioms and utilities for programmers.

It included:

1. programming idioms that are repeatedly used by programmers.

2. utilities that helps programmers and administrators manage their environments

We decided to contribute this library to Python community as a token of appreciation to what this community enables us.

We hope that you will find this library useful and helpful as we find it.

If you have comments or insights, please don’t hesitate to contact us at [e-mail]

Programming Idoms

threaded

Note: inherent from acrilib decorator for methods that can be executed as a thread. RetriveAsycValue callable class used in the example below provide means to access results. One can provide their own callable to pass results.

example

from acris import threaded, RetriveAsycValue
from time import sleep

class ThreadedExample(object):
    @threaded
    def proc(self, id_, num, stall):
        s = num
        while num > 0:
            print("%s: %s" % (id_, s))
            num -= 1
            s += stall
            sleep(stall)
        print("%s: %s" % (id_, s))
        return s

example output

print("starting workers")
te1 = ThreadedExample().proc('TE1', 3, 1)
te2 = ThreadedExample().proc('TE2', 3, 1)

print("collecting results")
te1_callback = RetriveAsycValue('te1')
te1.addCallback(te1_callback)
te2_callback = RetriveAsycValue('te2')
te2.addCallback(te2_callback)

print('joining t1')
te1.join()
print('joined t1')
print('%s callback result: %s' % (te1_callback.name, te1_callback.result))
result = te1.syncResult()
print('te1 syncResult : %s' %result)

result = te2.syncResult()
print('te2 syncResult : %s' % result)
print('%s callback result: %s' % (te2_callback.name, te2_callback.result))

will produce:

starting workers
TE1: 3
TE2: 3
collecting results
joining t1
TE1: 4
TE2: 4
TE1: 5
TE2: 5
TE1: 6
TE2: 6
joined t1
te1 callback result: 6
te1 syncResult : 6
te2 syncResult : 6
te2 callback result: 6

Singleton and NamedSingleton

Note: inherent from acrilib meta class that creates singleton footprint of classes inheriting from it.

Singleton example

from acris import Singleton

class Sequence(Singleton):
    step_id = 0

    def __call__(self):
        step_id = self.step_id
        self.step_id += 1
        return step_id

example output

A = Sequence()
print('A', A())
print('A', A())
B = Sequence()
print('B', B())

will produce:

A 0
A 1
B 2

NamedSingleton example

from acris import Singleton

class Sequence(NamedSingleton):
    step_id = 0

    def __init__(self, name=''):
        self.name = name

    def __call__(self,):
        step_id = self.step_id
        self.step_id += 1
        return step_id

example output

A = Sequence('A')
print(A.name, A())
print(A.name, A())
B = Sequence('B')
print(B.name, B())

will produce:

A 0
A 1
B 0

Sequence

Note: inherent from acrilib meta class to produce sequences. Sequence allows creating different sequences using name tags.

example

from acris import Sequence

A = Sequence('A')
print('A', A())
print('A', A())
B = Sequence('B')
print('B', B())

A = Sequence('A')
print('A', A())
print('A', A())
B = Sequence('B')
print('B', B())

example output

A 0
A 1
B 0
A 2
A 3
B 1

TimedSizedRotatingHandler

use acrilog instead.

MpLogger and LevelBasedFormatter

use acrilog instead.

Decorators

Note: inherent from acrilib Useful decorators for production and debug.

traced_method

logs entry and exit of function or method.

from acris import traced_method

traced = traced_method(print, print_args=True, print_result=True)

class Oper(object):
    def __init__(self, value):
        self.value = value

    def __repr__(self):
        return str(self.value)

    @traced
    def mul(self, value):
        self.value *= value
        return self

    @traced
    def add(self, value):
        self.value += value
        return self

o = Oper(3)
print(o.add(2).mul(5).add(7).mul(8))

would result with the following output:

[ add ][ entering][ args: (2) ][ kwargs: {} ][ trace_methods.py.Oper(39) ]
[ add ][ exiting ] [ time span: 0:00:00.000056][ result: 5 ][ trace_methods.py.Oper(39) ]
[ mul ][ entering][ args: (5) ][ kwargs: {} ][ trace_methods.py.Oper(34) ]
[ mul ][ exiting ] [ time span: 0:00:00.000010][ result: 25 ][ trace_methods.py.Oper(34) ]
[ add ][ entering][ args: (7) ][ kwargs: {} ][ trace_methods.py.Oper(39) ]
[ add ][ exiting ] [ time span: 0:00:00.000007][ result: 32 ][ trace_methods.py.Oper(39) ]
[ mul ][ entering][ args: (8) ][ kwargs: {} ][ trace_methods.py.Oper(34) ]
[ mul ][ exiting ] [ time span: 0:00:00.000008][ result: 256 ][ trace_methods.py.Oper(34) ]
256

Data Types

Note: inherent from acrilib varies derivative of Python data types

MergeChainedDict

Similar to ChainedDict, but merged the keys and is actually derivative of dict.

a={1:11, 2:22}
b={3:33, 4:44}
c={1:55, 4:66}
d=MergedChainedDict(c, b, a)
print(d)

Will output:

{1: 55, 2: 22, 3: 33, 4: 66}

ResourcePool

Resource pool provides program with interface to manager resource pools. This is used as means to funnel processing.

ResourcePoolRequestor object can be used to request resource set resides in multiple pools.

ResourcePoolRequestors object manages multiple requests for multiple resources.

Sync Example

import time
from acris import resource_pool as rp
from acris import Threaded
import queue
from datetime import datetime

class MyResource1(rp.Resource): pass

class MyResource2(rp.Resource): pass

rp1 = rp.ResourcePool('RP1', resource_cls=MyResource1, policy={'resource_limit': 2, }).load()
rp2 = rp.ResourcePool('RP2', resource_cls=MyResource2, policy={'resource_limit': 1, }).load()

@Threaded()
def worker_awaiting(name, rp):
    print('[ %s ] %s getting resource' % (str(datetime.now()), name ) )
    r = rp.get()
    print('[ %s ] %s doing work (%s)' % (str(datetime.now()), name, repr(r)))
    time.sleep(4)
    print('[ %s ] %s returning %s' % (str(datetime.now()), name, repr(r)))
    rp.put(*r)


r1 = worker_awaiting('>>> w11-direct', rp1)
r2 = worker_awaiting('>>> w21-direct', rp2)
r3 = worker_awaiting('>>> w22-direct', rp2)
r4 = worker_awaiting('>>> w12-direct', rp1)

Virtual ResourcePool

Like ResourcePool, VResourcePool manages resources. The main difference between the two is that ResourcePool manages physical resource objects. VResourcePool manages virtual resources (VResource) that only represent physical resources. VResources can not be activated or deactivated.

One unique property VResourcePool enables is that request could be returned by quantity.

Virtual Requestors Example

class Callback(object):
    def __init__(self, notify_queue, name=''):
        self.q = notify_queue
        self.name = name
    def __call__(self,received=False):
        self.q.put(received)

requestors = rp.Requestors()

    callback = Callback(notify_queue, name=name)
    request_id = requestors.reserve(request=rps, callback=callback)

    if not requestors.is_reserved(request_id):
        print('[ %s ] %s doing work before resource available' % (str(datetime.now()), name,))
        notify_queue.get()
    resources = requestors.get(request_id)

Mediator

Note: inherent from acrilib Class interface to generator allowing query of has_next()

Example

from acris import Mediator

def yrange(n):
    i = 0
    while i < n:
        yield i
        i += 1

n = 10
m = Mediator(yrange(n))
for i in range(n):
    print(i, m.has_next(3), next(m))
print(i, m.has_next(), next(m))

Example Output

0 True 0
1 True 1
2 True 2
3 True 3
4 True 4
5 True 5
6 True 6
7 True 7
8 False 8
9 False 9
Traceback (most recent call last):

Utilities

commdir.py

usage: commdir.py [-h] [--dir1 DIR1] [--dir2 DIR2] [--quiet] [--out [REPORT]]
                  [--follow] [--detailed] [--sync-cmd] [--merge] [--total]
                  [--ignore [PATTERN [PATTERN ...]]]

Reports differences in directory structure and content. commdir.py will exit
with 0 if directories found the same. otherwise, it will exit with 1.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --dir1 DIR1           source folder for the comparison
  --dir2 DIR2           target folder for the comparison
  --quiet               avoid writing any report out, default: False
  --out [REPORT]        file to write report to, default: stdout
  --follow              follow links when walking folders, default: False
  --detailed            provide detailed file level diff, default: False
  --sync-cmd            provide commands that would align dirs and files,
                        default: False
  --merge               when sync-cmd, set how diff commands would be
                        resolved, default: dir1 is base.
  --total               outputs summary.
  --ignore [PATTERN [PATTERN ...]]
                        pattern to ignore

example: python commdir.py --dir1 my_folder --dir2 other_folder --ignore __pycache__ .*DS_Store

commdir.py also provides access to its underlined function commdir:

commdir(dir1, dir2, ignore=[], detailed=False, followlinks=False, quiet=False, bool_result=True)

compares two directory structures and their files.

commdir walks through two directories, dir1 and dir2. While walking, it aggregates information on the difference between the two structures and their content.

If bool_result is True, commdir will return True if difference was found. When False, it would return a DiffContent namedtuple with the following fields:

• diff (boolean)

• folders_only_in_dir1 (list)

• folders_only_in_dir2 (list)

• files_only_in_dir1 (list)

• files_only_in_dir2 (list)

• diff_files (list)
