Formation

A generic functional middleware infrastructure for Python.

Take a look:

from datetime.datetime import now
from hs_formation import wrap
from requests import get

def log(ctx, call):
    print("started")
    ctx = call(ctx)
    print("ended")
    return ctx

def timeit(ctx, call):
    started = now()
    ctx = call(ctx)
    ended = now() - started
    ctx['duration'] = ended
    return ctx

def to_requests(ctx):
    get(ctx['url'])
    return ctx

fancy_get = wrap(to_requests, middleware=[log, timeit])
fancy_get({'url':'https://google.com'})

Quick Start

Install from PyPI:

$ pip install hs-formation

Development

Install runtime dependencies plus the dev and ci groups, then run tests:

$ make install
$ make test

The ci group lists everything needed to execute the test suite and produce a coverage report in CI (for example pytest, pytest-cov, and other plugins). The dev group lists local-only tools such as pytest-watch.

To install only what CircleCI uses (no dev-only tools):

$ make install_ci

make ci_install is an alias for make install_ci.

After changing dependencies:

$ make lock

To verify pdm.lock is up to date without writing:

$ make verify_lock_file

Releases and tags

Release automation is handled by ci/release.sh and Makefile targets:

$ make release         # patch
$ make release_minor   # minor
$ make release_major   # major

For breaking changes (for example dropping Python support), use a major release so the tag and package version move to the next major semver:

$ make release_major

Best Practices

A context object is a loose bag of objects. With that freedom comes responsibility and opinion.

For example, this is how Formation models a requests integration, with data flowing inside context:

• It models a FormationHttpRequest which abstracts the essentials of making an HTTP request (later shipped to requests itself in the way that it likes)
• It tucks FormationHttpRequest under the fmtn.req key.
• Additional information regarding such a request is kept alongside fmtn.req. For example a request id is kept in the req.id key. This creates a flat (good thing) dict to probe. The reason additional data does not have the fmtn prefix is that you can always build your own that uses a different prefix (which you cant say about internal Formation inner workings).

added support for async http client via aio_http

You can use this via for_aio_http
