Build a docker-compose.yml string from a Python dict of service names and images, then write it to a file.

docker compose yaml
Python
import yaml
from pathlib import Path

def generate_mock_compose(services: dict) -> str:
    compose = {
        "version": "3.9",

How to Build a Synthetic Monitor Mock in Python

Simulates a synthetic monitoring system in Python that collects latency samples, averages them, and reports service status as UP or DEGRADED.

monitoring dataclass simulation
Python
import random
import time
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from statistics import mean


@dataclass
class SyntheticMonitor:
    service: str
    endpoint: str
    latency_ms: list[float] = field(default_factory=list)

    def check(self) -> float:
        latency = random.uniform(50.0, 250.0)

How to Mock a Dependency for Readiness Probe in Python

Use unittest.mock.Mock to simulate a dependency's readiness check response for testing a service's is_ready method without hitting a real connection.

unittest.mock mock readiness probe
Python
import time
import unittest
from unittest.mock import Mock

class Service:
    def __init__(self, dependency):
        self.dependency = dependency

    def is_ready(self):
        try:
            result = self.dependency.check()
            return result == "ready"
        except Exception:
            return False

How to build a maintenance mode page in Python

Mock a service maintenance status page that computes remaining downtime and lists affected features from a simple class.

maintenance status datetime
Python
from datetime import datetime

class MaintenanceMode:
    """Mock a maintenance mode status page for a service."""
    
    def __init__(self, service_name: str, scheduled_end: str):
        self.service_name = service_name
        self.scheduled_end = datetime.fromisoformat(scheduled_end)
