axiomatic-engine 0.1.0

A typed orchestration engine for configurable ingestion and transformation pipelines.

Axiomatic Engine

Axiomatic Engine orchestrates ingestion and transformation pipelines while keeping domain logic in project folders.

Quick Start

Install the package:

• uv add axiomatic-engine

Or with pip:

• pip install axiomatic-engine

Run a project entrypoint:

• copy projects/fake_store/.env.example to projects/fake_store/.env
• set required environment variables for your target warehouse and storage
• run uv run python projects/fake_store/run_pipeline.py

This gives a working reference for a REST ingestion source and transformation flow using the engine contracts.

Contributor Quickstart

The project standardises on uv for local quality checks and packaging workflows.

• Install hooks once:
  • uv run --group dev pre-commit install
• Run hooks across the repository:
  • uv run --group dev pre-commit run --all-files
• Run the full package quality gate:
  • uv run --group dev --group test python scripts/quality_gate.py

Runtime Configuration Contract

The engine reads typed runtime settings from AXIOMATIC_* environment variables, with project entrypoints able to override values via CLI flags.

Schema layers are configured independently:

• AXIOMATIC_SCHEMA_BRONZE
• AXIOMATIC_SCHEMA_SILVER
• AXIOMATIC_SCHEMA_GOLD
• AXIOMATIC_SCHEMA_ANALYTICS

This keeps medallion naming explicit and consistent across ingestion and dbt model targets.

Source Routing Contract

Source implementations now expose specific source kinds:

• rest_api
• http_file

The standard project path is typed source definitions routed through axiomatic_engine.sources.factory via build_source(...).

Direct source constructors remain supported for advanced project-specific customisation.

Ingestion Resource Load Hints

Sources can provide optional per-resource hints through ResourceLoadHints:

• write_disposition: append, replace, or merge
• primary_key: key used by merge semantics
• schema_evolution_mode: auto, strict, or discard

These hints are source-agnostic contracts and are mapped by the source bridge when building dlt.resource(...).

Schema Evolution Policy

The engine supports a hybrid schema evolution policy:

• auto: evolve bronze schema when new fields appear
• strict: freeze schema and fail on drift
• discard: discard unexpected values while keeping rows

Projects can set this per resource so strictness can vary by endpoint.

Rerun Semantics

Replay behaviour depends on per-resource load hints:

• merge with a primary key provides idempotent upsert behaviour
• replace gives deterministic snapshot tables on rerun
• append preserves full arrival history

Choose by resource based on analytical needs and source stability.

Operationally, ingestion stage gating also considers:

• force_reload=True always triggers ingestion
• otherwise storage-cache heuristics decide whether ingestion should run

Security Defaults

Current security defaults prioritise secret-safe runtime surfaces:

• dbt command environments are filtered to an allowlist instead of forwarding the full process environment
• token-like values in dbt stderr are redacted before being returned in transformation failure details
• ingestion logs avoid dumping raw loader result objects

Package Quality Gate

The package quality gate is standardised on uv and runs the same checks you should later enforce in CI:

• pre-commit checks across the repository
• unit tests
• distribution build (wheel + source distribution)
• distribution metadata checks
• wheel content validation for src-layout packaging boundaries

Run it with both dependency groups enabled:

uv run --group dev --group test python scripts/quality_gate.py

Pre-commit Checks

Use pre-commit for fast local feedback before commits.

Install the hooks:

uv run --group dev pre-commit install

Run hooks on all files:

uv run --group dev pre-commit run --all-files

Release Publishing

Release publishing is handled by .github/workflows/release.yml.

• Trigger: push a tag matching v* (for example v0.1.1)
• Required PyPI setup: configure a Trusted Publisher for this GitHub repository
• Workflow behaviour:
  • runs the same quality gate command used locally and in CI
  • builds release distributions
  • uploads dist/* as workflow artefacts
  • publishes with pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish via OIDC
