Project description

# python-pipeline

This library allows users to easily wrap functions with a series of decorators to form
an execution pipeline.
This is useful in scenarios where input needs to be cleaned and output needs to be processed in a systematic way.

## Installation
pip install execution-pipeline


## Usage
A pipeline consists of four optional segments
### Pre
The `pre` execution segment allows you to modify any input parameters passed to the decorated function. Any functions
passed to the `pre` segment will always be executed first.

from pipeline import execution_pipeline

def do_thing_before(params):
params['arg1'] = 'okay'
return params


@execution_pipeline(pre=[do_thing_before])
def do_thing(arg1=5):
return arg1*10



do_thing()
# okayokayokayokayokayokayokayokayokayokay


### Post
The `post` execution segment allows you to modify or handle the result after the decorated function has already run.

def do_thing_after(response):
response['added'] = 'yup'
return response


@execution_pipeline(post=[do_thing_after])
def do_thing(**kwargs):
return {**kwargs} # just make a new dictionary using the passed keyword arguments


do_thing(apples=2, oranges=3, bananas=0)
# {'apples': 2, 'oranges': 3, 'bananas': 0, 'added': 'yup'}

Just like the other segments, you can use as many post processing functions as you need; they will be executed in the order
that they are passed.


def do_another_thing_after(response):
assert response['added'] == 'yup' # the one that is first in the pipeline happens first.
response['also_added'] = 'also yup'
return response


@execution_pipeline(post=[do_thing_after, do_another_thing_after])
def do_thing(**kwargs):
return {**kwargs}


do_thing()
# {'apples': 2, 'oranges': 3, 'bananas': 0, 'added': 'yup', 'also_added': 'also yup'}

### Error
The `error` execution segment allows you to pass error handling to log, modify, absorb, etc. any exceptions that are
raised by the wrapped function.


class MyException(BaseException):
pass

def handle_this_error(e, response=None):
print(f"oh no, Bob! {e}")
return "Don't worry, we handled a TypeError."


def handle_that_error(e, response=None):
print(f"oh no, Bob! {e}")
return "Don't worry, we handled MyException."

error_handlers = [
{"exception_class": TypeError, "handler": handle_this_error},
{"exception_class": MyException, "handler": handle_that_error},
]


@execution_pipeline(pre=[do_thing_before], post=[do_thing_after], error=error_handlers)
def fun_boys(arg1, arg4, arg2, arg3, thing=None):
raise MyException('Something went wrong!')


result = fun_boys(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
# oh no, Bob! Something went wrong!

print(result)
# Don't worry, we handled MyException.

### Cache
The `cache` execution segment will record all arguments (before and after the `pre` segment) and store the result
(after the `post` and `error` segments).

from pipeline.cache.mock import MockCache
# MockCache is basically just a dict() with some expiration convenience methods.
mock_cache = MockCache()

changing_value = 0

@execution_pipeline(cache=mock_cache)
def fun_boys(arg1, arg4, arg2, arg3, thing=None):
return changing_value



fun_boys(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
# 0

changing_value = 100


fun_boys(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
# 0 # ignores the changes ( ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ that's caching! )

#### Supported Cache Backends
Note: if the appropriate backend is not installed, they will be replaced with a `MockCache` instance at runtime. This
is intended to improve portability of pipeline code.

##### Redis
```
pip install redis
```
And then same as above except with

from pipeline.cache.redis import RedisCache
redis = RedisCache(host='localhost', port=6379) # defaults


##### MemCached
```
pip install memcached
```
And then the same as above except with

from pipeline.cache.mem_cache import MemCache
mem_cache = MemCache(host='localhost', port=11211) # defaults
