Graceful shutdown, prod config, rollouts, readiness probes, and ship-with-confidence checks.
How to Mock Multi-Stage Docker Builds in Python
Simulate a multi-stage Docker build in pure Python using classes and temp directories to understand how build stages copy artifacts into a final image.
# Simulate multi-stage Docker build with pure Python
from pathlib import Path
import tempfile
import shutil
class BuildContext:
"""Mimics a Docker build context with stages."""
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
self.files = {}

Create a new copy of a frozen dataclass with selected fields changed, leaving the original unchanged.
from dataclasses import dataclass, replace
@dataclass(frozen=True)
class ServerConfig:
name: str
cpu: int = 2
ram: int = 4096
tags: tuple = ()
original = ServerConfig("web-01", cpu=4, tags=("env:prod",))
updated = replace(original, ram=8192, tags=("env:prod", "region:us-east"))
print("Original:", …Browse by section
