magic-storage 1.1.0

Small Python 3 library providing wrapper classes for storage (caching) of test resources (and unintentionally other types of resources too).

Magic Storage cooler than you think!

---

Magic storage is a Python library that provides tools to easily write, read and delete resources for testing. This applies, of course, to resources that are difficult to obtain but not very expensive to store locally and, in addition, do not change. A good example are responses from REST APIs or at least those of them that are not live data.

The library consists of a set of classes that implement storage using the file system and temporary storage in RAM. All tools can be accessed through the MagicStorage class.

Installing

Install and update using pip:

$ pip install -U magic_storage

Example

from typing import Any
from magic_storage import MagicStorage


def very_expensive_get() -> Any:
    ...


response = (
    MagicStorage()
    .filesystem(__file__)
    .cache_if_missing("Nice thing", lambda: very_expensive_get())
)
