Ibhax - The Ultimate Decorator Toolkit

ibhax is a powerful and versatile Python library that provides 100 production-grade decorators to enhance your development workflow. It includes decorators for logging, debugging, caching, performance monitoring, security, error handling, and much more.

Features

✅ 100+ Ready-to-Use Decorators
✅ Production-Grade Implementation
✅ Performance & Debugging Tools
✅ Error Handling & Security Enhancements
✅ Logging & Monitoring Support
✅ Simple and Flexible API

Installation

Install ibhax using pip:

pip install ibhax

Quickstart

Import DecoratorFactory and start using decorators right away:

from ibhax.decorators import DecoratorFactory

factory = DecoratorFactory()

@factory.deprecated("Use `new_function()` instead.")
def old_function():
    print("This function is deprecated.")

old_function()

Example Output:

============================================================
                  DEPRECATION NOTICE                     
Function       : old_function
Location       : example.py:8
Reason         : Use `new_function()` instead.
Recommendation : Please update your code accordingly.
============================================================
This function is deprecated.

Available Decorators (Highlights)

The DecoratorFactory class provides 100 powerful decorators. Here are a few:

Decorator Name	Description
@factory.deprecated	Marks a function as deprecated with a custom warning.
@factory.log_execution_time	Logs the execution time of a function.
@factory.retry	Retries a function multiple times if it fails.
@factory.suppress_errors	Suppresses and logs exceptions instead of breaking the program.
@factory.cache_results	Caches function results to improve performance.
@factory.debug	Logs function calls and arguments for debugging.
@factory.thread_safe	Ensures a function is thread-safe.
@factory.rate_limit	Limits the rate at which a function can be called.
@factory.trace	Traces execution step-by-step for debugging.
@factory.timeout	Sets a time limit on function execution.

---

Usage Examples

1. Logging Execution Time

@factory.log_execution_time
def slow_function():
    import time
    time.sleep(2)
    print("Finished")

slow_function()

Output:

Execution time of slow_function: 2.0000 seconds
Finished

---

2. Retrying a Function on Failure

@factory.retry(attempts=3, delay=1)
def unstable_function():
    import random
    if random.random() < 0.7:
        raise ValueError("Random failure!")
    print("Success!")

unstable_function()

---

3. Suppressing Errors

@factory.suppress_errors(default="Error occurred!")
def risky_function():
    raise ValueError("Oops!")

print(risky_function())  # Output: Error occurred!

---

4. Debugging Function Calls

@factory.debug
def add(a, b):
    return a + b

add(2, 3)

Output:

DEBUG: add called with args: (2, 3), kwargs: {}
DEBUG: add returned 5

---

5. Rate Limiting Function Calls

@factory.rate_limit(calls=2, period=5)
def limited_function():
    print("Executed")

limited_function()
limited_function()
limited_function()  # This call may be blocked if made too soon.

---

6. Enforcing Thread Safety

@factory.thread_safe
def safe_function():
    print("Thread-safe function running.")

---

7. Tracing Function Execution

@factory.trace
def traced_function():
    x = 5
    y = x * 2
    return y

traced_function()
