Exactly Once Processing Dedupe Mock in Python
Implements a streaming deduplicator using a set and queue to guarantee each item is processed exactly once while preserving insertion order.
from collections import deque
class DedupeStream:
def __init__(self):
self.seen = set()
self.queue = deque()
def add(self, item):
if item not in self.seen:
self.seen.add(item)
self.queue.append(item)
print(f"Processed: {item} (exactly once)")
…How to Order Partition Key Events in Python (Mock Stream)
Generate a mock event stream grouped by partition key and sort it deterministically by key then sequence in Python.
import itertools
import random
def partition_key_events(keys, events_per_key=3, seed=None):
"""Produce a realistic-looking, but mock, event stream grouped by partition key.
Args:
keys: iterable of partition keys (e.g. strings or ints).
events_per_key: how many events we want per key.
…How to Create a Mock Kafka Producer in Python
Build a Kafka producer that generates mock streaming records with JSON serialization and error handling for local testing.
import json
import time
from kafka import KafkaProducer
from kafka.errors import KafkaError
def create_mock_producer(bootstrap_servers="localhost:9092", topic="input-topic"):
"""Create a Kafka producer that generates mock streaming data."""
producer = KafkaProducer(

Simulate a streaming socket source with a generator to test stream-read and buffering logic without a real network.
import socket
import threading
import time
def mock_socket_stream(data_chunks, delay=0.1):
"""Generator that simulates a streaming socket source."""
for chunk in data_chunks:
time.sleep(delay)
yield chunk

"""Reads from mock stream and prints received ch…Sliding Window Streaming Mock in Python
A simple Python class that maintains a sliding window of recent streaming values and computes the running average.
import time
import random
class StreamingMock:
"""Produces a stream of numbers using a sliding window."""
def __init__(self, window_size=5):
self.window = []
self.window_size = window_size
def push(self, value):
"""Add a value, sliding the window forward."""
