Python bindings for Forge — hardened infra primitives on Postgres

forgelib

Python bindings for Forge via pyo3. A natively async ForgeClient over the async Rust core: every method returns an awaitable driven on a shared Tokio runtime, so an asyncio app awaits the binding directly: no thread-pool wrapper, the event loop is never blocked. The full primitive surface is exposed (kv, queue, config, ratelimit, blob, auth, schedule, pubsub), plus backend_report.

Forge errors surface as a typed exception hierarchy (forgelib.NotFoundError, forgelib.InvalidError, forgelib.LimitError, … all subclasses of forgelib.ForgeError), and every raised instance carries a retryable attribute.

Built against the stable ABI (abi3-py39), so one wheel runs on CPython ≥ 3.9.

Build

docker compose up -d db          # a Postgres for local use

cd bindings/python
python -m venv .venv && . .venv/bin/activate
pip install maturin
maturin develop                  # compiles + installs `forgelib` into the venv

(On a CPython newer than this pyo3 release knows about, prefix the build with PYO3_USE_ABI3_FORWARD_COMPATIBILITY=1.)

Use

Configuration lives in a forge.toml at the project root; init() reads it and instantiates the runtime. A minimal one:

[postgres]
url = "${DATABASE_URL:-postgres://postgres:forge@localhost:5432/forge_dev}"

[blob]
signing_secret = "${BLOB_SIGNING_SECRET:-dev-secret}"  # enables presigned blob URLs

import forgelib

forge = await forgelib.ForgeClient.init()  # reads ./forge.toml

greeting = forge.kv("greeting")
await greeting.set("hi")
print(await greeting.get())

# Realtime: topic handles decode JSON events for you.
async for event in forge.topic("chat:1").subscribe():
    handle(event)

Native typed handles

The main forgelib package binds names to JSON value types directly on the client, so most app code does not need raw queue strings plus json.dumps:

import forgelib

emails = forge.queue("emails")
await emails.enqueue({"to": "a@b.c", "template": "welcome"}, max_attempts=3)
job = await emails.dequeue(wait_seconds=1.0)
if job:
    handle(job.payload)            # already decoded
    await emails.ack(job.receipt)

profile = forge.kv("user:1:profile")
await profile.set({"name": "Ada"})

The raw methods (kv_set, queue_enqueue, ...) remain available for exact cross-language parity and string/byte contracts. The packaged stubs include both the raw client and the typed handles.
