data-retrieval-module 1.0.2

A standardized interface for data providers with sync and async support

Data Retrieval Module

A standardized interface for data providers with both synchronous and asynchronous support. This module provides abstract base classes that enable consistent data retrieval patterns across different data sources (APIs, databases, files, etc.).

Features

• 🔄 Dual API Support: Both sync and async interfaces
• 🏗️ Abstract Base Classes: Standardized patterns for data providers
• 🔌 Connection Management: Built-in connection handling with context managers
• 🔄 Retry Logic: Automatic retry with configurable parameters
• 📊 Pagination Support: Standardized pagination with QueryResult
• 🎣 Hook Methods: Customizable validation and transformation
• 🧪 Type Safety: Full type hints and generic support
• ✅ Well Tested: Comprehensive unit test coverage

Installation

Basic Installation

Quick Start

Synchronous Data Provider

from data_retrieval import DataProvider, QueryResult
from data_retrieval.model import ProviderStatus

class UserProvider(DataProvider[User]):
    def _connect(self) -> None:
        self._db = Database.connect(...)
    
    def _disconnect(self) -> None:
        self._db.close()
    
    def fetch(self, *args, **kwargs) -> QueryResult[User]:
        filters = kwargs.get("filters", {})
        users = self._db.users.find(filters)
        return QueryResult(
            data=users,
            total_count=len(users),
            metadata={"source": "database"}
        )

# Usage
provider = UserProvider()
with provider.connection(host="localhost", port=5432):
    result = provider.fetch(filters={"active": True})
    for user in result.data:
        print(user.name)

Asynchronous Data Provider

from data_retrieval import AsyncDataProvider

class AsyncUserProvider(AsyncDataProvider[User]):
    async def _connect(self) -> None:
        self._db = await Database.connect(...)
    
    async def _disconnect(self) -> None:
        await self._db.close()
    
    async def fetch(self, *args, **kwargs) -> QueryResult[User]:
        filters = kwargs.get("filters", {})
        users = await self._db.users.find(filters)
        return QueryResult(
            data=users,
            total_count=len(users),
            metadata={"source": "database"}
        )

# Usage
async def main():
    provider = AsyncUserProvider()
    async with provider.async_connection(host="localhost", port=5432) as p:
        result = await p.fetch(filters={"active": True})
        for user in result.data:
            print(user.name)

Core Classes

DataProvider (Synchronous)

Abstract base class for synchronous data providers.

Key Methods:

• connect(**config) - Establish connection
• disconnect() - Close connection
• fetch(*args, **kwargs) - Retrieve data
• fetch_or_raise(*args, **kwargs) - Fetch with error handling
• with_retry(operation, max_retries, retry_delay) - Retry logic

Hook Methods:

• validate(data) - Validate data
• transform(data) - Transform data
• health_check() - Health status

AsyncDataProvider (Asynchronous)

Abstract base class for asynchronous data providers.

Key Methods:

• async connect(**config) - Establish connection
• async disconnect() - Close connection
• async fetch(*args, **kwargs) - Retrieve data
• async fetch_or_raise(*args, **kwargs) - Fetch with error handling
• async with_retry(operation, max_retries, retry_delay) - Retry logic

QueryResult

Standardized container for query results.

@dataclass
class QueryResult[T]:
    data: List[T]
    total_count: int
    metadata: Dict[str, Any]
    
    def is_empty(self) -> bool:
        return self.total_count == 0

Advanced Usage

Custom Validation

class ValidatedProvider(DataProvider[User]):
    def validate(self, data: User) -> bool:
        # Custom validation logic
        return data.email and "@" in data.email

Data Transformation

class TransformingProvider(DataProvider[User]):
    def transform(self, data: dict) -> User:
        # Convert raw data to User object
        return User(**data)

Retry Logic

provider = MyProvider()

# Retry with custom parameters
result = provider.with_retry(
    operation=lambda: provider.fetch(filters={"id": "123"}),
    max_retries=5,
    retry_delay=2.0,
    parameters={}
)

Context Managers

# Automatic connection management
with provider.connection(host="localhost") as p:
    data = p.fetch()

# Async version
async with provider.async_connection(host="localhost") as p:
    data = await p.fetch()

Error Handling

The module provides specific exception types:

from data_retrieval.model.exceptions import (
    DataProviderError,
    ConnectionError,
    QueryError,
    ValidationError
)

try:
    result = provider.fetch(filters={"invalid": "field"})
except ConnectionError as e:
    print(f"Connection failed: {e}")
except QueryError as e:
    print(f"Query failed: {e}")
except DataProviderError as e:
    print(f"General error: {e}")
