How to Mock a Service Registry in Python with an In-Memory Dict
A lightweight ServiceRegistry class backed by a dict, exposing register, unregister, lookup, list, and health-check methods.
class ServiceRegistry:
def __init__(self):
self._services = {}
def register(self, name, endpoint, version="1.0"):
self._services[name] = {
"endpoint": endpoint,
"version": version,
"status": "healthy"
}
def unregister(self, name):

Retry idempotent GET requests in Python
A Python function that retries an idempotent GET request a fixed number of times with a delay between attempts, raising a RuntimeError only after all retries fail.
import time
import urllib.error
import urllib.request
from http.client import HTTPException
def fetch_with_retry(url, max_retries=3, delay=1.0):
for attempt in range(1, max_retries + 1):
try:
with urllib.request.urlopen(url, timeout=5) as response:
return response.read().decode…
Model registry version mock in Python
A simple in-memory model registry that stores model versions with metadata and supports version listing and latest retrieval.
class ModelRegistry:
def __init__(self):
self.models = {}
def register(self, name, version, model_type, metrics=None):
if name not in self.models:
self.models[name] = []
entry = {
"version": version,
"model_type": model_type,
"metrics": m…
How to Mock a Container Registry in Python
Build an in-memory container registry mock with push, tag listing, and manifest retrieval logic for testing deployment tooling.
import json
from collections import defaultdict
class MockRegistry:
def __init__(self):
self.repositories = defaultdict(dict)
def push_image(self, repo: str, tag: str, layers: list[str]) -> None:
self.repositories[repo][tag] = {
"layers": layers,
"size": sum(len(layer…
How to Roll Back to a Previous Image Tag in Python
A dataclass-based mock registry that tracks image tag history and rolls back to the previous tag, useful for deployment rollback logic.
"""Demonstrates a rollback pattern for a Docker-style image tag registry."""
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
@dataclass
class ImageRegistry:
"""A minimal mock registry tracking current tags per image."""
tags: dict[str, list[str]] = field(default_factory=dict)
def push(self, image: str, tag: …
