Idempotent Pipeline Dedupe by Record ID Set in Python
Filters records against a persistent set of seen IDs, returning only new ones and the updated set for idempotent pipeline processing.
def dedupe_records(records, seen_ids=None):
"""Return records whose id has not been seen before."""
if seen_ids is None:
seen_ids = set()
unique = []
for record in records:
record_id = record.get("id")
if record_id not in seen_ids:
seen_ids.add(record_id)
…Implement Exactly-Once Transaction Log in Python
A mock transaction log that deduplicates transaction IDs so each is recorded only once, with a dataclass for records and simple in-memory storage.
from dataclasses import dataclass
from typing import Dict, Optional
@dataclass
class TxnRecord:
txn_id: str
status: str
class ExactlyOnceTxnLog:
def __init__(self) -> None:
self._log: Dict[str, TxnRecord] = {}
self._processed_ids: set = set()
def record(self, txn_id: str, status: s…Generate an Idempotency-Key header mock with UUID in Python
This code provides a mock idempotency service that generates a UUID-based Idempotency-Key header token and validates it, useful for simulating production API behavior in tests.
import uuid
class MockIdempotencyService:
def __init__(self):
self._tokens = {}
def get_token(self, header_name="Idempotency-Key"):
token = str(uuid.uuid4())
self._tokens[header_name] = token
return token
def validate(self, header_name="Idempotency-Key"):
return s…Idempotent Consumer: Store Processed IDs in Python
Implement an idempotent consumer that persists processed message IDs to a JSON file, skipping duplicates on restart.
import json
from pathlib import Path
class IdempotentStore:
def __init__(self, storage_path: str = "processed_ids.json"):
self.storage_path = Path(storage_path)
self.processed_ids = self._load()
def _load(self) -> set:
if self.storage_path.exists():
with self.storage_path…Exactly Once Idempotent Consumer Store in Python
A mock key-value store that guarantees exactly-once processing by rejecting duplicate message keys in a message or event stream.
from collections import defaultdict
class ExactlyOnceStore:
def __init__(self):
self.processed = defaultdict(set)
self.data = {}
def consume(self, key, value):
if key in self.data:
return False
self.data[key] = value
return True
def get_processed_count…How to implement an idempotency key store in Python
Build an in-memory idempotency key store with TTL that processes a request once and reuses the cached result for duplicate calls.
import hashlib
import time
from typing import Dict, Optional
class IdempotencyStore:
"""Simple in-memory idempotency key store with mock processing."""
def __init__(self, ttl_seconds: int = 3600) -> None:
self.ttl = ttl_seconds
self._store: Dict[str, tuple[str, float]] = {}
def _is_expi…Idempotent Consumer Event Processing in Python
Track processed event IDs to skip duplicates and count event types for a reliable, idempotent consumer.
import json
from collections import defaultdict
class EventProcessor:
def __init__(self):
self.processed_ids = set()
self.counts = defaultdict(int)
def process_event(self, event):
event_id = event["id"]
if event_id in self.processed_ids:
return {"status": "skipped"…Browse by section
