Dataframe-timeseries-mon 1.0.1

DataFrame ordered-window extraction with diagnostics and an envvar-based monitoring integration layer

dataframe-timeseries-mon

A small, dependency-light toolkit built around two complementary components:

1. DataFrame time-window extraction (PBM_SUPPORT_DF_WINDOW)

   • Extract an ordered, fixed-length hour window from a pandas DataFrame.
   • Robust coercion (auto / float / raw) and a diagnostic engine.
   • Optional “alert bridge” that can publish a visible monitoring signal when diagnostics fail.

2. Environment-variable monitoring integration layer (alerting_subsystem)

   • A transport-agnostic monitoring convention based on environment variables.
   • Cache + aggregation helpers and a human-readable “post” renderer (text or HTML).
   • A simple external-exception backstop channel.

The modules can be used independently, but they are designed to work well together:

• PBM_SUPPORT_DF_WINDOW can emit diagnostics and (optionally) publish a safe monitoring signal via cache envvars.
• alerting_subsystem can aggregate those cache signals and format a post, without any dependency on a notification system.

This distribution ships:

• Legacy top-level modules (backward compatible import paths):
  • PBM_SUPPORT_DF_WINDOW.py
  • alerting_subsystem.py
• A conventional wrapper package for normal imports:
  • dataframe_timeseries_mon

Install

pip install dataframe-timeseries-mon

Recommended imports:

import dataframe_timeseries_mon as dtm

Backwards-compatible imports (also supported):

from PBM_SUPPORT_DF_WINDOW import df_to_ordered_window_API
import alerting_subsystem

---

Quick start

1) Extract an ordered hour window from a DataFrame

from PBM_SUPPORT_DF_WINDOW import df_to_ordered_window_API

window = df_to_ordered_window_API(
    df=df,
    value_col="position",
    start_hour=0,
    num_hours=24,
    OVERRIDE_TO_6HR=False,   # IMPORTANT: default clamps to <= 6 hours
)

print(len(window), window[:6])

If your DataFrame has an hour column (recommended when rows may be missing or unordered):

window = df_to_ordered_window_API(
    df=df,
    value_col="position",
    hour_col="delivery_hour",  # values convertible to hour int (0-23), Timestamp, etc.
    start_hour=8,
    num_hours=6,
)

2) Surface issues via monitoring aggregation

alerting_subsystem reads environment variables. A common operational pattern is:

• call external_reset() at the start of an iteration (clears helper alarms and resets the external exception channel)
• run your pipeline under external_passthru(stage=...) (records uncaught exceptions into the external channel)
• use any_alarm(include_caut=True) as the final gate
• render a post with build_post_text_from_cache(...)

import alerting_subsystem as als

als.external_reset(iter_tag="RUN_001")

with als.external_passthru(stage="MAIN"):
    # your pipeline code here
    ...

if als.any_alarm(include_caut=True):
    post = als.build_post_text_from_cache(as_html=False)
    print(post)

3) Integrated behavior: DFWIN diagnostics can become monitoring CAUT

PBM_SUPPORT_DF_WINDOW.df_to_ordered_window_API(...) runs diagnostics by default. If diagnostics fail, it can publish a monitoring cache signal so that any_alarm(include_caut=True) becomes True.

Default bridge behavior (safe fanout):

• Publishes CAUT into cache keys for kind OZE for BOTH portfolios:
  • (PCPOL, OZE) and (PCAGR, OZE)

This default is chosen to avoid “going nowhere” with the default any_alarm() scan.

---

Wrapper package (dataframe_timeseries_mon)

The wrapper exists solely for conventional imports. It does not change behavior.

import dataframe_timeseries_mon as dtm

# df-window API
w = dtm.df_to_ordered_window_API(df=df, value_col="position", start_hour=0, num_hours=24, OVERRIDE_TO_6HR=False)

# monitoring API
if dtm.any_alarm(include_caut=True):
    print(dtm.build_post_text_from_cache(as_html=False))

Exports:

• dtm.df_to_ordered_window_API (alias: dtm.df_to_ordered_window)
• dtm.any_alarm, dtm.snapshot_cache_log, dtm.build_post_text_from_cache, dtm.external_reset, dtm.external_passthru, etc.

DataFrame window extraction (PBM_SUPPORT_DF_WINDOW)

Function

• PBM_SUPPORT_DF_WINDOW.df_to_ordered_window_API(...) -> list

Core parameters

• df: pandas DataFrame
• value_col: column name (or integer positional index)
• start_hour: starting hour for the window (modulo period, default 24)
• num_hours: requested length

Important defaults

• OVERRIDE_TO_6HR=True clamps num_hours to <= max_override_hours (default 6).
  • For a full-day window, pass OVERRIDE_TO_6HR=False.

Hour alignment modes (choose one)

1. hour_col="..." (recommended): map hours from a DataFrame column
2. use_index_as_hour=True: map hours from the DataFrame index
3. otherwise, positional extraction uses base_hour (default 0)

Notes:

• If hour_col is set or use_index_as_hour=True, missing hours can be detected and optionally enforced.
• period defaults to 24 and is used for modulo wrapping.

Output / coercion

output="auto" (default):

• preserves booleans
• parses boolean-like strings ("true/false", "yes/no") if enabled
• treats 0/1 as boolean only if the entire non-null value set is binary-only
• otherwise coerces to float

Other modes:

• output="float": always float coercion
• output="raw": no coercion

Invalid value policy (invalid=):

• "nan" (default): coercion failures produce nan
• "keep": keep original value
• "raise": raise exception

Diagnostics

Diagnostics are enabled by default (diag_enable=True). When enabled:

• a diagnostic envvar pair is set per call:
  • <DIAG_BASE_KEY> is set to OK or ALRM
  • <DIAG_BASE_KEY>_D contains a readable detail string (including meta)
• logging markers are emitted via logging (WARNING level by default)

Stable diagnostic key naming (recommended for dashboards):

_ = df_to_ordered_window_API(
    df=df,
    value_col="position",
    start_hour=0,
    num_hours=24,
    OVERRIDE_TO_6HR=False,
    diag_namespace="OZE",
    diag_name="POSITIONS",
)

If you do not specify diag_namespace / diag_name, unique keys are generated per call to avoid collisions.

Strict time-axis validation (optional):

• diag_time_col="cet_datetime" enables a strict monotonic hourly axis check.
• diag_expected_rows=24 enforces row count (set None to disable).

Strict hour coverage (optional):

• diag_strict_hours_coverage=True can enforce that every requested hour is present when hour mapping is used.

Alert bridge (DFWIN -> monitoring cache)

When diagnostics are enabled, the alert bridge is enabled by default.

• Default behavior publishes CAUT via PBM_CACHE_* keys (not via trap keys).
• Disable explicitly with alert_bridge_enable=False.
• Route explicitly with:
  • alert_bridge_targets=[("PCPOL","OZE")], or
  • alert_bridge_pfs=[...], alert_bridge_kinds=[...] (cross-product)

The bridge is designed to be safe by default:

• If routing would otherwise “go nowhere”, safe defaults are added unless you explicitly allow it.

Monitoring integration (alerting_subsystem)

What it does

• Defines a monitoring convention via environment variables.
• Aggregates state and determines whether anything is not OK (any_alarm).
• Snapshots a small set of DataFrame columns into cache keys (snapshot_cache_log).
• Renders a “post” for downstream notification systems (text or HTML).
• Provides an external exception backstop channel (external_passthru).

Typical usage

Snapshot a DataFrame into the cache (and also cache a rendered snapshot text):

import alerting_subsystem as als

msg, overall = als.snapshot_cache_log(
    pf="PCPOL",
    kind="OZE",
    df=df,
    col_specs=als.COL_SPECS_OZE,
)

print("overall:", overall)
print(msg)

Render a post from the cache (human-readable, suitable for sending via email/Teams/etc.):

post_text = als.build_post_text_from_cache(as_html=False)
post_html = als.build_post_text_from_cache(as_html=True, html_doc=True)

Key state families

Trap inputs (external force):

• PBM_TRAP_{PF}_{KIND} : OK / ALRM / missing
• PBM_TRAP_{PF}_{KIND}_D : descriptor text

Cache outputs (computed status):

• PBM_CACHE_{PF}_{KIND}_TS
• PBM_CACHE_{PF}_{KIND}_OVERALL : OK / CAUT / ALRM
• PBM_CACHE_{PF}_{KIND}_TRAP
• PBM_CACHE_{PF}_{KIND}_DESC
• PBM_CACHE_{PF}_{KIND}_DATA

Snapshot text:

• PBM_LAST_{PF}_{KIND}_TEXT
• PBM_LAST_{PF}_{KIND}_TS

Helper alarm text:

• PBM_HELPER_LAST_{PF}_{KIND}_TEXT
• PBM_HELPER_LAST_{PF}_{KIND}_TS

External exception channel:

• PBM_EXTERNAL_STATE (OK / ALRM)
• PBM_EXTERNAL_ITER
• PBM_EXTERNAL_LAST_TEXT
• PBM_EXTERNAL_LAST_TS

Legacy mirror keys are also written/read (PBM_DRIVEBY_*).

Environment controls

Time column handling in snapshots:

• PBM_DATA_TIME_MODE controls how time columns are included in snapshot data.
  • omit (default): omit time columns (CET Delivery Start, cet_datetime)
  • hm: include time columns but formatted as HH:MM
  • any other value: include raw string values

Post formatting:

• PBM_POST_FORMAT controls default post format
  • values like html/htm/true/1/yes enable HTML
  • otherwise text
• PBM_POST_HTML_DOC controls whether HTML output is a full HTML document
  • 1/true/yes/on enables full document wrapping

Portfolio context:

• PBM_TRAP_PORTFOLIO is the conventional portfolio envvar used in multiple places.

Common functions

• snapshot_cache_log(pf, kind, df, col_specs, ...) -> (text, overall)
• any_alarm(pfs=("PCPOL","PCAGR"), kinds=("RB","OZE"), include_caut=True) -> bool
• build_post_text_from_cache(...) -> str
• external_reset(iter_tag=None, ...) and external_passthru(stage, iter_tag=None)
• alarm_passthru: context manager backstop that routes exceptions into the external channel

---

CLI

A small CLI is included that renders the current monitoring post from environment variables:

dfmon-post --text

The CLI does not send notifications; it only renders output.
