How to Mock Sticky Session Read-Your-Writes in Python
Simulates a sticky session store that routes reads for a session to the node where the last write occurred, demonstrating read-your-writes consistency.
class StickySessionStore:
def __init__(self):
self.data = {}
self.session_nodes = {}
def write(self, session_id, key, value):
self.data[key] = value
self.session_nodes[session_id] = key
return f"Wrote {key}={value} for session {session_id}"

self.cookie = http.cookies.SimpleCookie()
def create_session_cookie(self, session_id=None):
session_id = session_id or secrets.token_hex(16)
self.cookie["session"] = session_id
