dbx-marker

Easily manage incremental progress using watermarks in your Databricks data pipelines.

Overview

dbx-marker is a Python library that helps you manage watermarks in your Databricks data pipelines using Delta tables.

It provides a simple interface to track and manage pipeline progress, making it easier to implement incremental processing and resume operations.

Features

• Simple API for managing pipeline watermarks
• Persistent storage using Delta tables
• Thread-safe operations
• Comprehensive error handling
• Built for Databricks environments

Installation

Install using pip:

pip install dbx-marker

Quick Start

from dbx_marker import DbxMarker
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession

# Initialize SparkSession
spark = SparkSession.builder.getOrCreate()

# Create a marker manager
manager = DbxMarker(
    delta_table_path="/path/to/markers",
    spark=spark
)

# Update a marker (will upsert if it doesn't exist)
manager.update_marker("my_pipeline", "2024-01-21")

# Get the current marker
current_marker = manager.get_marker("my_pipeline")

# Delete a marker when needed
manager.delete_marker("my_pipeline")

Usage

Initialization

Create a DbxMarkerManager instance by specifying the Delta table path where markers will be stored:

from dbx_marker import DbxMarker
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession

# Initialize SparkSession
spark = SparkSession.builder.getOrCreate()

manager = DbxMarker(
    delta_table_path="/path/to/markers",
    spark=spark  # Optional: will create new session if not provided
)

Managing Markers

Update a Marker

manager.update_marker("pipeline_name", "marker_value")

Get Current Marker

current_value = manager.get_marker("pipeline_name")

Delete a Marker

manager.delete_marker("pipeline_name")

Error Handling

The library provides specific exceptions for different scenarios:

• MarkerExistsError: When trying to create a duplicate marker
• MarkerNotFoundError: When a requested marker doesn't exist
• MarkerUpdateError: When marker update fails
• MarkerDeleteError: When marker deletion fails
