Production deployment patterns
Graceful shutdown, prod config, rollouts, readiness probes, and ship-with-confidence checks.
Generate a docker-compose.yml with mock services in Python
Build a docker-compose.yml string from a Python dict of service names and images, then write it to a file.
import yaml
from pathlib import Path
def generate_mock_compose(services: dict) -> str:
compose = {
"version": "3.9",
"services": {}
}
for name, image in services.items():
compose["services"][name] = {
"image": image,
"container_name": f"mock-{name}",

How to Build a Mock Trivy Image Scan Gate in Python
Simulate a Trivy image scan and enforce a security gate that fails the pipeline when vulnerabilities meet or exceed a severity threshold.
import json
import sys
def mock_trivy_scan(image_name, severity_threshold="HIGH"):
"""Simulate a Trivy image scan result."""
mock_vulnerabilities = [
{"ID": "CVE-2023-1234", "Severity": "HIGH", "Package": "openssl", "FixedVersion": "3.0.9"},
{"ID": "CVE-2024-5678", "Severity": "CRITICAL", "Pa…
How to Mock Docker Image Non-Root User in Python
This Python class simulates Docker image layers and inspects whether the final user is a non-root user, returning UID, GID, and security status.
from pathlib import Path
class DockerImageMock:
def __init__(self, name, tag):
self.name = name
self.tag = tag
self.layers = []
self.user = "root"
def add_file(self, path, content):
self.layers.append({"file": path, "content": content})
def set_user(self, usernam…
How to Mock Image Signing Cost in Python
Create a deterministic mock signing cost calculator that predicts resource usage for image signatures before real signing infrastructure is staged.
import math
import struct
def sign_image_cost(image_signature: bytes) -> int:
"""Deterministic mock signing cost based on image signature bytes."""
if not image_signature:
raise ValueError("Empty image signature")
digest = 0
for byte in image_signature:
digest = (digest * 31 + byte) &…
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 = {}
def add_file(self, dest, content):
s…
How to Roll Back to a Previous Image Tag in Python
A dataclass-based mock registry that tracks image tag history and rolls back to the previous tag, useful for deployment rollback logic.
"""Demonstrates a rollback pattern for a Docker-style image tag registry."""
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
@dataclass
class ImageRegistry:
"""A minimal mock registry tracking current tags per image."""
tags: dict[str, list[str]] = field(default_factory=dict)
def push(self, image: str, tag: …
