xapian-profile 0.1.0

Xapian-based user profile management with schema validation and automatic index routing

XProfile

A Python package for Xapian-based user profile management with schema validation and automatic index routing.

Overview

xprofile provides the XProfile model class, built on top of xapian_model.base.BaseXapianModel. It offers a comprehensive schema for storing and managing user profiles in Xapian indexes with automatic routing based on entity ID and profile admin API ID.

Features

• Xapian-Based Storage: Leverages Xapian for efficient full-text search and retrieval
• Automatic Index Routing: Routes documents to appropriate indexes using configurable templates
• Comprehensive Schema: Includes fields for personal, business, reseller, and other profile types
• Zero Dependencies: Pure Python implementation with no external runtime dependencies
• Type-Safe: Full type hints support for Python 3.12+
• Well-Documented: Google-style docstrings throughout the codebase

Installation

pip install xapian-profile

Development Installation

Requirements: Python 3.12 or higher (specified in .python-version)

Clone the repository and install in editable mode:

git clone [e-mail]:Dubalu-Development-Team/xprofile.git
cd xprofile
python3.12 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .

Using direnv (recommended): If you have direnv installed, the virtual environment with the correct Python version will be automatically created and activated when you enter the project directory. Just run:

direnv allow

Usage

Security Configuration

For security reasons, INDEX_TEMPLATE and schema _foreign field must be defined in your application code:

from xprofile import XProfile
from xprofile.utils import get_encoded_uuid, get_slug

# Define your own profile identifiers (keep these secret!)
PROFILES_ADMIN_API = "Your Profile Admin API Name"
PROFILE_ADMIN_API_ID = get_encoded_uuid(get_slug(PROFILES_ADMIN_API))
PROFILE_SCHEMA = "Your Profile Schema Name"
PROFILE_SCHEMA_ID = get_encoded_uuid(get_slug(PROFILE_SCHEMA))

# Create a subclass with your configuration
class MyProfile(XProfile):
    INDEX_TEMPLATE = '{entity_id}/{profile_admin_api_id}'

# Configure the schema _foreign field
MyProfile.SCHEMA['_schema']['_foreign'] = f'.schemas/{PROFILE_SCHEMA_ID}'
MyProfile.SCHEMA['_schema']['_meta']['description'] = PROFILE_SCHEMA

# Now use your profile
profile = MyProfile(
    entity_id="your-entity-id",
    profile_admin_api_id=PROFILE_ADMIN_API_ID
)

Basic Usage

# Access the schema
schema = MyProfile.SCHEMA

# The schema includes fields for:
# - Basic info: name, slug, is_active
# - Profile types: personal, business, reseller, etc.
# - Contact info: email, phone with validation
# - Timestamps: created_at, updated_at, deleted_at
# - And more...

Profile Types

XProfile supports multiple profile types:

• personal - Personal user profiles
• business - Business organization profiles
• reseller - Reseller accounts
• referral - Referral program participants
• supplier - Supplier accounts
• mashup - Mashup service profiles
• affinity - Affinity group profiles
• dssupplier - Data supplier profiles

Schema

The profile schema includes comprehensive field definitions with:

• Type validation (string, uuid, boolean, date, json, etc.)
• Index configuration (terms, field_terms, field_all, none)
• Required/optional field markers
• Null value handling
• Default values
• Field-specific constraints

Access the complete schema via XProfile.SCHEMA or import get_profile_schema() from xprofile.schemas.
