# python-resilience — detailed worked examples ## Advanced Patterns ### Pattern 5: Logging Retry Attempts Track retry behavior for debugging and alerting. ```python from tenacity import retry, stop_after_attempt, wait_exponential import structlog logger = structlog.get_logger() def log_retry_attempt(retry_state): """Log detailed retry information.""" exception = retry_state.outcome.exception() logger.warning( "Retrying operation", attempt=retry_state.attempt_number, exception_type=type(exception).__name__, exception_message=str(exception), next_wait_seconds=retry_state.next_action.sleep if retry_state.next_action else None, ) @retry( stop=stop_after_attempt(3), wait=wait_exponential(multiplier=1, max=10), before_sleep=log_retry_attempt, ) def call_with_logging(request: dict) -> dict: """External call with retry logging.""" ... ``` ### Pattern 6: Timeout Decorator Create reusable timeout decorators for consistent timeout handling. ```python import asyncio from functools import wraps from typing import TypeVar, Callable T = TypeVar("T") def with_timeout(seconds: float): """Decorator to add timeout to async functions.""" def decorator(func: Callable[..., T]) -> Callable[..., T]: @wraps(func) async def wrapper(*args, **kwargs) -> T: return await asyncio.wait_for( func(*args, **kwargs), timeout=seconds, ) return wrapper return decorator @with_timeout(30) async def fetch_with_timeout(url: str) -> dict: """Fetch URL with 30 second timeout.""" async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client: response = await client.get(url) return response.json() ``` ### Pattern 7: Cross-Cutting Concerns via Decorators Stack decorators to separate infrastructure from business logic. ```python from functools import wraps from typing import TypeVar, Callable import structlog logger = structlog.get_logger() T = TypeVar("T") def traced(name: str | None = None): """Add tracing to function calls.""" def decorator(func: Callable[..., T]) -> Callable[..., T]: span_name = name or func.__name__ @wraps(func) async def wrapper(*args, **kwargs) -> T: logger.info("Operation started", operation=span_name) try: result = await func(*args, **kwargs) logger.info("Operation completed", operation=span_name) return result except Exception as e: logger.error("Operation failed", operation=span_name, error=str(e)) raise return wrapper return decorator # Stack multiple concerns @traced("fetch_user_data") @with_timeout(30) @retry(stop=stop_after_attempt(3), wait=wait_exponential_jitter()) async def fetch_user_data(user_id: str) -> dict: """Fetch user with tracing, timeout, and retry.""" ... ``` ### Pattern 8: Dependency Injection for Testability Pass infrastructure components through constructors for easy testing. ```python from dataclasses import dataclass from typing import Protocol class Logger(Protocol): def info(self, msg: str, **kwargs) -> None: ... def error(self, msg: str, **kwargs) -> None: ... class MetricsClient(Protocol): def increment(self, metric: str, tags: dict | None = None) -> None: ... def timing(self, metric: str, value: float) -> None: ... @dataclass class UserService: """Service with injected infrastructure.""" repository: UserRepository logger: Logger metrics: MetricsClient async def get_user(self, user_id: str) -> User: self.logger.info("Fetching user", user_id=user_id) start = time.perf_counter() try: user = await self.repository.get(user_id) self.metrics.increment("user.fetch.success") return user except Exception as e: self.metrics.increment("user.fetch.error") self.logger.error("Failed to fetch user", user_id=user_id, error=str(e)) raise finally: elapsed = time.perf_counter() - start self.metrics.timing("user.fetch.duration", elapsed) # Easy to test with fakes service = UserService( repository=FakeRepository(), logger=FakeLogger(), metrics=FakeMetrics(), ) ``` ### Pattern 9: Fail-Safe Defaults Degrade gracefully when non-critical operations fail. ```python from typing import TypeVar from collections.abc import Callable T = TypeVar("T") def fail_safe(default: T, log_failure: bool = True): """Return default value on failure instead of raising.""" def decorator(func: Callable[..., T]) -> Callable[..., T]: @wraps(func) async def wrapper(*args, **kwargs) -> T: try: return await func(*args, **kwargs) except Exception as e: if log_failure: logger.warning( "Operation failed, using default", function=func.__name__, error=str(e), ) return default return wrapper return decorator @fail_safe(default=[]) async def get_recommendations(user_id: str) -> list[str]: """Get recommendations, return empty list on failure.""" ... ```
