Batch Consume Process Commit Pattern in Python
A mock batch processor that accumulates items in a queue, processes full batches, commits successful or failed results, and flushes remaining items.
import random
import threading
import time
from collections import deque
class MockBatchProcessor:
def __init__(self, process_func, commit_func, batch_size=5):
self.queue = deque()
self.batch_size = batch_size
self.process_func = process_func
self.commit_func = commit_func
de…How to Build a Materialized View Updater Consumer Mock in Python
A mock consumer that queues change events and triggers refresh callbacks to simulate materialized view updates.
import time
from collections import deque
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from typing import Callable, Deque, Optional
@dataclass
class MaterializedViewUpdater:
"""Mock updater that consumes change events and refreshes a view."""
refresh: Optional[Callable[[str], None]] = None
queue: Deque[tuple…How to Implement Backpressure Pause Producer with a Bounded Queue in Python
Places a Producer thread that sends items into a bounded queue with backpressure: on Full, it pauses to let the consumer catch up.
import threading
import time
import queue
import random
class Producer:
def __init__(self, q):
self.q = q
self.running = True
def produce(self):
while self.running:
item = random.randint(1, 100)
try:
self.q.put(item, timeout=0.5)
…How to Mock RabbitMQ Ack Nack Requeue in Python
A mock RabbitMQ channel and consumer that simulates ack, nack, and requeue handling for testing message processing logic without a broker.
import json
from collections import deque
class MockChannel:
def __init__(self):
self.acked = []
self.nacked = []
self.requeued = []
def basic_ack(self, delivery_tag):
self.acked.append(delivery_tag)
def basic_nack(self, delivery_tag, requeue=False):
self.nacked.…How to Simulate RabbitMQ Exchange Routing in Python
Simulate RabbitMQ exchange routing using a nested dict, matching routing keys against patterns like error.* and info.# to return bound queues.
from collections import defaultdict
def route_message(exchanges, exchange_name, routing_key):
"""
Simulate RabbitMQ exchange routing using a nested dict structure.
Returns list of queue names that match the routing key.
"""
queues = exchanges.get(exchange_name, {})
matched = []
for pa…How to mock RabbitMQ queue binding with routing keys in Python
A mock demonstration of binding a queue to an exchange with multiple routing keys in RabbitMQ using Python and pika, without a real broker connection.
import pika
import sys
def bind_queue_with_routing(channel, queue_name, exchange_name, routing_keys):
"""
Mock RabbitMQ queue binding with routing keys.
Prints the binding configuration instead of connecting to a real broker.
"""
for routing_key in routing_keys:
binding = {
"q…How to Mock Redis Pub/Sub in Python
Test Redis pub/sub logic without a live server using an in-memory fake that queues published messages per channel.
import redis
import time
import threading
class MockRedisPubSub:
def __init__(self):
self.channels = {}
def publish(self, channel, message):
if channel not in self.channels:
return 0
for subscriber in self.channels[channel]:
subscriber.put(message)
ret…How to Mock a Redis Transaction with MULTI/EXEC in Python
A minimal in-memory mock of Redis MULTI/EXEC transactions that queues commands and applies them atomically on EXEC.
class RedisTransactionMock:
def __init__(self):
self.data = {}
self.queue = []
self.in_transaction = False
def multi(self):
self.in_transaction = True
self.queue = []
return "OK"
def set(self, key, value):
if self.in_transaction:
self.qu…How to implement a write-behind cache with async queue in Python
Build an async write-behind cache that queues writes in memory and flushes them in batches to persistent storage.
import asyncio
from collections import deque
from dataclasses import dataclass
@dataclass
class CacheEntry:
key: str
value: str
class WriteBehindCache:
def __init__(self, flush_interval=1.0):
self.cache = {}
self.queue = deque()
self.flush_interval = flush_interval
self._f…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)")
