What is Rapyer?

Rapyer (Redis Atomic Pydantic Engine Reactor) is a modern async Redis ORM that enables atomic operations on complex data models. Built with Pydantic v2, it provides type-safe Redis interactions while maintaining data consistency and preventing race conditions.

Key Features

🚀 Atomic Operations - Built-in atomic updates for complex Redis data structures
⚡ Async/Await - Full asyncio support for high-performance applications
🔒 Type Safety - Complete type validation using Pydantic v2
🌐 Universal Types - Native optimization for primitives, automatic serialization for complex types
🔄 Race Condition Safe - Lock context managers and pipeline operations
📦 Redis JSON - Efficient storage using Redis JSON with support for nested structures

Installation

pip install rapyer

Requirements:

  • Python 3.10+
  • Redis server with JSON module
  • Pydantic v2

Quick Start

import asyncio
from rapyer.base import AtomicRedisModel
from typing import List, Dict


class User(AtomicRedisModel):
    name: str
    age: int
    tags: List[str] = []
    metadata: Dict[str, str] = {}


async def main():
    # Create and save a user
    user = User(name="John", age=30)
    await user.asave()

    # Atomic operations that prevent race conditions
    await user.tags.aappend("python")
    await user.tags.aextend(["redis", "pydantic"])
    await user.metadata.aupdate(role="developer", level="senior")

    # Load user from Redis
    loaded_user = await User.aget(user.key)
    print(f"User: {loaded_user.name}, Tags: {loaded_user.tags}")

    # Atomic operations with locks for complex updates
    async with user.alock("update_profile") as locked_user:
        locked_user.age += 1
        await locked_user.tags.aappend("experienced")
        # Changes saved atomically when context exits


if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Core Concepts

Atomic Operations

Rapyer ensures data consistency with built-in atomic operations:

# These operations are atomic and race-condition safe
await user.tags.aappend("python")           # Add to list
await user.metadata.aupdate(role="dev")     # Update dict

Lock Context Manager

For complex multi-field updates:

async with user.alock("transaction") as locked_user:
    # Locked actions, only single process can be inside this lock section at a time
    call_new_action()

Pipeline Operations

Batch multiple operations for performance:

async with user.apipeline() as pipelined_user:
    await pipelined_user.tags.aappend("redis")
    await pipelined_user.metadata.aupdate(level="senior")
    # Executed as single atomic transaction

Type Support

Rapyer supports all Python types with automatic serialization:

  • Native types (str, int, List, Dict) - Optimized Redis operations
  • Complex types (dataclass, Enum, Union) - Automatic pickle serialization
  • Nested models - Full Redis functionality preserved
from dataclasses import dataclass
from enum import Enum

@dataclass
class Config:
    debug: bool = False

class User(AtomicRedisModel):
    name: str = "default"
    scores: List[int] = []
    config: Config = Config()  # Auto-serialized
    
# All types work identically
user = User()
await user.config.set(Config(debug=True))  # Automatic serialization
await user.scores.aappend(95)               # Native Redis operation

🏆 What Makes Rapyer Unique

True Atomic Operations Out of the Box

# Rapyer - Atomic by default
await user.tags.aappend("python")  # Race-condition safe
await user.metadata.aupdate(role="dev")  # Always atomic

# Others - Manual transaction management required
async with redis.apipeline() as pipe:  # Manual setup
    pipe.multi()  # Manual transaction
    # ... manual Redis commands               # Error-prone
    await pipe.execute()

Intelligent Lock Management

# Rapyer - Automatic lock context
async with user.alock("profile_update") as locked_user:
    locked_user.balance -= 50
    locked_user.transaction_count += 1
    # All changes saved atomically on exit

# Others - Manual lock implementation
lock_key = f"lock:{user.key}"
while not await redis.set(lock_key, token, nx=True):  # Manual retry logic
    await asyncio.sleep(0.1)  # Race conditions possible
# ... manual cleanup required

Universal Type System

# Rapyer - Any Python type works identically
class User(AtomicRedisModel):
    scores: List[int] = []              # Native Redis operations
    config: MyDataClass = MyDataClass()  # Auto-serialized
    metadata: Dict[str, Any] = {}       # Native Redis operations

# All types support the same atomic operations
await user.config.set(new_config)      # Automatic serialization
await user.scores.aappend(95)           # Native Redis LIST operations
await user.metadata.aupdate(key="val") # Native Redis JSON operations

Pipeline with True Atomicity

# Rapyer - Everything in pipeline is atomic
async with user.apipeline() as pipelined_user:
    await pipelined_user.tags.aappend("redis")
    await pipelined_user.metadata.aupdate(level="senior")
    # Single atomic transaction - either all succeed or all fail

# Others - No built-in pipeline abstraction for ORM operations
