How to Implement Namespaced Cache Keys for Tenant Isolation in Python
Build a tenant-aware cache wrapper that prefixes keys with tenant and namespace, and test it with mocks.
from keyvaluestore import SimpleCache
from unittest.mock import patch
class TenantCache(SimpleCache):
def __init__(self, tenant_id, namespace="default"):
super().__init__()
self.tenant_id = tenant_id
self.namespace = namespace
def _key(self, key):
return f"tenant:{self.tenant_…How to Mock a Cache Key Schema Version Bump in Python
Show how to test a cache key schema bump by mocking the class-level version attribute with unittest.mock.
from unittest import mock
class VersionCache:
SCHEMA_VERSION = 1
def __init__(self, key_prefix="cache"):
self.key_prefix = key_prefix
def build_key(self, resource_id):
return f"{self.key_prefix}:schema-v{self.SCHEMA_VERSION}:{resource_id}"
def bump_schema(self):
