[0.0.20] - 2025-03-21

Added

• New PynencBuilder for Enhanced Configuration:

  • Introduced a fluent, chainable builder pattern for configuring Pynenc applications, replacing direct Pynenc() instantiation in examples and documentation.

  • Supports configuration of Redis/memory backends via redis(url, db) and memory().

  • Offers multiple runner types: multi_thread_runner(min_threads, max_threads, enforce_max_processes), persistent_process_runner(num_processes), thread_runner(min_threads, max_threads), process_runner(), and dummy_runner().

  • Configures serializers with serializer(name) supporting shortnames (json, pickle) and full class names.

  • Adds fine-grained argument logging control with hide_arguments(), show_argument_keys(), show_full_arguments(), and show_truncated_arguments(truncate_length=32), underpinned by argument_print_mode(mode, truncate_length).

  • Enhances concurrency management with concurrency_control(running_concurrency, registration_concurrency), accepting both strings and ConcurrencyControlType enums.

  • Includes additional utilities: dev_mode(force_sync_tasks), logging_level(level), runner_tuning(...), task_control(...), max_pending_seconds(seconds), and custom_config(**kwargs).

  • Validates memory component compatibility with runners via _validate_memory_compatibility().

  • Comprehensive test suite covering all builder methods, including edge cases and enum validations.

[0.0.19] - 2025-03-19

Added

• New direct_task Decorator:

  • Introduced a new decorator direct_task in Pynenc that wraps the existing task decorator to provide a simpler interface for task execution.

  • Unlike task, which returns an invocation object, direct_task returns the result directly:

    • For synchronous functions, it waits and returns the result immediately.

    • For async functions, it returns an awaitable that resolves to the result.

  • Supports parallel execution with optional parallel_func (generates arguments for parallel tasks) and aggregate_func (combines results into a single value).

  • Inherits all options from task (e.g., max_retries, retry_for, call_result_cache), ensuring full compatibility with existing task configuration.

  • Example usage:

    @app.direct_task
    def add(x, y):
        return x + y
    result = add(1, 2)  # Returns 3 directly

    @app.direct_task(parallel_func=lambda _: [(i, i+1) for i in range(5)], aggregate_func=sum)
    async def parallel_add(x, y):
    return x + y
    result = await parallel_add(0, 0)  # Returns 25 (sum of parallel results)

• Comprehensive Tests for direct_task:

• Added a new test file tests/unit/task/test_direct_task.py with full coverage for the direct_task decorator.

Changed

• Enhanced ConcurrentInvocation to Support Async Tasks:

• Updated the run method in ConcurrentInvocation to use run_task_sync.

• Previously, async tasks were called directly without awaiting, returning a coroutine object. Now, run_task_sync detects async functions and runs them in a new event loop, ensuring the result is returned correctly.

• This fix ensures that direct_task and task decorators work seamlessly with async tasks in development environments (when dev_mode_force_sync_tasks is enabled), aligning its behavior with DistributedInvocation.

• Increased test coverage for pynenc.util.import_app.

• Increased test coverage for pynenc.runner.persistent_process_runner.

Fixed

• Corrected Async Task Execution in ConcurrentInvocation:

• Fixed an issue where async tasks in a ConcurrentInvocation (used in dev mode) returned coroutine objects instead of results, breaking the direct_task decorator’s promise of direct result return.

• The fix ensures compatibility with both sync and async tasks, improving reliability in test and development scenarios.

[0.0.18] - 2025-03-06

Added

• Full support for asynchronous task execution and result retrieval:

  • Introduced async_result() for awaiting individual task results.

  • Introduced async_results() for awaiting multiple task results in parallel.

  • Enabled async group invocations using parallelize().async_results().

• File Path Support in find_app_instance: Enhanced pynenc.util.import_app.find_app_instance to support loading a Pynenc instance from a file path (e.g., path/to/app.py) in addition to module paths. The function now detects file paths using os.path.sep or .py extension, loads the module with spec_from_file_location, and adjusts sys.path for relative imports.

• Enhanced sys.path Handling in find_app_instance: For file paths, now adds the inferred project root (three levels up from the file) to sys.path, enabling nested imports (e.g., from core.params.config_helpers import load_settings) to resolve correctly, aligning with tools like Uvicorn.

• Comprehensive Tests for File Path Loading: Added tests/unit/util/test_import_app_filepath.py with full test coverage for find_app_instance file path functionality, including:

  • Successful loading with and without .py extension.

  • Error handling for nonexistent files, invalid module specs, and missing Pynenc instances.

  • Type hints for static type checking with mypy.

• CLI Test for File Path Config: Added test_cli_show_config_with_file_path to tests/unit/cli/test_config_cli.py to verify the CLI command pynenc --app <file_path> show_config loads and displays configuration from a file path.

• PersistentProcessRunner:

  • Introduced a new runner that maintains a fixed pool of persistent worker processes which continuously poll for invocations and execute them sequentially.

  • Workers receive shared communication arguments (via a managed dictionary passed in runner_args) to report waiting states, allowing the parent process to signal processes with SIGSTOP/SIGCONT.

  • This design reduces process startup overhead under heavy load and provides a more celery-like worker model for CPU-bound tasks.

Tests

• New unit tests for async result handling:

  • Verified that async_waiting_for_results() correctly delegates to _waiting_for_results().

  • Ensured that external invocations in DummyRunner use time.sleep() as expected.

  • Added tests for async_result() and async_results() behavior with delayed and failing invocations.

• New integration tests for async execution:

  • Full coverage of async task execution including:

    • Simple async tasks

    • Async sleep-based tasks

    • Tasks raising exceptions

    • Tasks with async dependencies

    • Cycle detection in async tasks

  • Group invocation tests verifying async parallel execution.

• Enhanced test isolation in conftest.py:

  • Before: Mocks were defined at the class level, leading to state sharing across tests.

  • Now: Each mock method is encapsulated within the instance, preventing unexpected state persistence in parallel test runs.

  • Improved MockPynenc instantiation to ensure each test gets a fresh, isolated instance.

• Renamed SynchronousInvocation to ConcurrentInvocation:

  • Why? The term Synchronous was misleading since the class is designed for concurrent execution, not strictly blocking synchronous execution.

  • What changed?

    • All references to SynchronousInvocation have been replaced with ConcurrentInvocation.

    • Code, documentation, and tests updated accordingly to reflect the new naming.

    • Ensured backward compatibility by aliasing SynchronousInvocation to ConcurrentInvocation (this will be removed in a future version).

• Added a unit test (test_thread_start_failure) that forces thread creation to fail and verifies that the invocation is correctly rerouted.

• Updated integration tests to cover asynchronous task execution, waiting, failure, dependency, and parallel performance.

• Added comprehensive performance tests to measure and validate task distribution efficiency.

• Implemented specific tests for the orchestrator’s task acquisition mechanism.

• Added dedicated tests for the blocking control functionality to ensure proper invocation limits.

• Benchmarked runner performance under various load conditions.

Changed

• Optimized async_result() to improve polling efficiency and reduce unnecessary orchestrator calls.

• Updated async_waiting_for_results() to respect configurable sleep time for better performance in distributed runners.

• Improved ThreadRunner error handling:

  • Wrapped thread creation in runner_loop_iteration() in try/except; on failure (RuntimeError), the offending invocation is requeued via reroute_invocations.

  • Enhanced cleanup of finished threads in the available_threads property by joining and removing them.

  • Clarified the use of daemon=True for threads (daemon threads won’t block process exit).

  • Slight adjustments to _waiting_for_results to continue polling the local final cache for dependency resolution.

• Updated ProcessRunner and MultiThreadRunner integration to support retrieving a shared cache when uninitialized.

• Improved argument cache purge logic to handle Manager.dict() shutdown cases gracefully.

• Optimized ThreadRunner to poll local cache instead of pausing threads:

  • Before: Used threading.Condition to pause threads in _waiting_for_results, relying on Redis status checks and condition notifications.

  • Now: Polls a local OrderedDict (final_invocations) to check for completed dependencies, reducing Redis queries and eliminating thread suspension overhead.

  • Details:

    • Removed wait_conditions and simplified wait_invocation to a set of collective dependencies.

    • Introduced final_invocations with a max size of 10,000 entries, evicting oldest entries when full.

    • Centralized status checks in runner_loop_iteration, populating the local cache and removing finalized invocations from wait_invocation.

    • Updated _waiting_for_results to poll the cache with a configurable sleep time (invocation_wait_results_sleep_time_sec), resuming tasks when all dependencies are final.

  • Impact: Improves performance by avoiding context switches, though it may slightly increase CPU usage due to polling. Memory is bounded by the cache size limit.

Fixed

• RedisOrchestrator Blocking Control: Fixed an issue where the orchestrator was processing more invocations than requested, causing some runners to receive tasks they weren’t executing. This improves resource allocation and prevents task queue overflow.

• Fixed runner reference update in subprocesses:

  • When a MultiThreadRunner spawns a ThreadRunner in a subprocess, the ThreadRunner now explicitly resets app.runner to itself.

  • This ensures that tasks executed within the subprocess use the correct runner instance, eliminating spurious warnings from waiting_for_results.
