cloudevents-pydantic 0.0.2

An implementation of the CloudEvents spec using Pydantic V2

cloudevents-pydantic

This is an implementation of the CloudEvents spec using Pydantic V2 for high performance during validation and serialization.

Currently supported bindings:

Binding	Format	Single	Batch
HTTP	JSON	✅	✅
HTTP	Binary	planned	planned
KAFKA	JSON	planned	planned
KAFKA	Binary	planned	planned

How to use

pip install cloudevents-pydantic

from cloudevents_pydantic.bindings.http import HTTPHandler
from cloudevents_pydantic.events import CloudEvent

handler = HTTPHandler()
minimal_attributes = {
    "type": "com.example.string",
    "source": "https://example.com/event-producer",
}

# `CloudEvent` is a Pydantic model to handle validation and serialization
# `event_factory` is a helper method to autogenerate some of the mandatory 
# such as id, time, specversion
event = CloudEvent.event_factory(**minimal_attributes)

# Single event HTTP serialization
headers, single_event_as_json = handler.to_json(event)

# Batch of events HTTP serialization
headers, batch_of_events_as_json = handler.to_json_batch([event])

# Parsing a JSON string for a single event
parsed_event = handler.from_json(single_event_as_json)

# Parsing a JSON string for a single event
parsed_event_list = handler.from_json(batch_of_events_as_json)

Refer to the docs for more advanced use cases and for details on how to create custom events.

Performance

Using pydantic gives a great performance boost if compared to the official SDK. (there's obviously some performance issue in the official serialization using pydantic)

These results come from a Macbook Pro M3 Max on python 3.12. Feel free to run the benchmark.py script yourself.
