Utilities for i.ai to use

i.AI Utility Code

i-dot-ai-utilities is a python package used and developed by the i.AI team within DSIT. It provides common features used in many of our applications.

Features

Current features:

Structured Logging

The structured logging library is used to generate logs in a known format so they can be further processed into logging systems downstream. It also provides the ability to easily enrich log messages with useful data, and in some cases does this automatically.

You can find information on usage of the logging library in the logging library readme.

Metrics Collection

The metrics collection library provides the ability to write time-series metrics out to useful destinations. In the case of i.AI, this is CloudWatch Metrics.

There's also a handy interface provided which can be used in your code to allow for modularity if the swapping out of implementations is desired.

You can find information on usage of the metrics collection library in the metrics library readme.

File store

The file store library currently only supports aws s3 as this is the main/only file store that we use in anger.

It can be used to upload and download files, and generate file download links for end-users to use.

The aim is to be able to plug more file storage destinations into this module so it can be swapped out easily.

You can find out information on usage of the file store library in the file store library readme.

LiteLLM

This library currently supports LLM proxy through LiteLLM, for chat and embedding functions.

The hope for this library is to easily swap between proxies for whichever is best-in-market at the time.

As the end-user, you'll have to make sure that the API key issued to you by LiteLLM will support the models you're trying to use.

More information on usage and setup can be found in the litellm library readme.

Future features:

• authentication
• authorisation
• vector stores

How to use

Unit Testing

All modules contained within this repo include robust test suites. You can run tests for all modules in this package using make test.

Tests and linting runs on every push and merge to main.

When making changes or adding tests, please ensure tests run in isolation, as failures of external dependencies will impact the CI tests for all packages. Please also make sure that tests pass before merging, as failing tests will impact every package in the application.

CI/CD & Releases

Releases must be manually created, after which the specified package version will be released to PyPI. As such, release names must adhere to semantic versioning. They must not be prefixed with a v.

You may release a pre-release tag to the test version of PyPI by specifying the release as a pre-release on creation. This allows for the testing of a tag in a safe environment before merging to main.

To test a pre-release tag, you can follow these steps in a repo of your choice:

1. Update pyproject.toml:

[[tool.poetry.source]]
name = "test-pypi"
url = "https://test.pypi.org/simple/"
priority = "supplemental"

2. Load the specific version into the environment (replacing version number as required)

poetry add --source test-pypi i-dot-ai-utilities==0.1.1rc202506301522
