How to Run a Mock Cron Pipeline Scheduler in Python
This code schedules a mock pipeline job to run every 2 seconds and hourly at :30 using the schedule library, then runs pending tasks for 10 seconds.
import time
import schedule
from datetime import datetime
def run_pipeline():
print(f"{datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')} - Pipeline executed")
schedule.every(2).seconds.do(run_pipeline)
schedule.every().hour.at(":30").do(run_pipeline)
print("Scheduler started. Press Ctrl+C to stop.")
end_time = ti…
How to Simulate a Micro-Batch Interval Trigger in Python
A dataclass-based mock that emits batch numbers at fixed intervals, mimicking a micro-batch streaming scheduler for testing and development.
import time
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from typing import List, Callable
@dataclass
class MicroBatchTriggerMock:
batch_interval_seconds: float = 0.5
max_batches: int = 5
_batches_emitted: int = 0
_next_emit_time: float = field(init=False, default=0)
def start(self, on_batch: Callab…
