Core

The core subpackage groups core constants, functions and low-level components used throughout the framework.

The main focus here is on efficiency and re-usability as this forms the base layer of the entire framework. Message passing is a core design philosophy and the base massage types are contained here.

A generic FiniteStateMachine operates with C-level enums, ensuring correct state transitions for both domain entities and more complex components.

Datetime

This module provides efficient functions for performing standard datetime related operations.

Functions include awareness/tz checks and conversions, as well as ISO 8601 conversion.

Finite-State Machine (FSM)

Defines a generic Finite-State Machine (FSM).

The FSM operates with a state-transition table of tuples and C-level enums. The intended use case is to ensure correct state transitions, as well as holding a deterministic state value.

class FiniteStateMachine

Bases: object

FiniteStateMachine(dict state_transition_table, int initial_state, trigger_parser: Callable[[int], str] = str, state_parser: Callable[[int], str] = str)

Provides a generic finite state machine.

  • Parameters:
    • state_transition_table (dict of tuples and states) – The state-transition table for the FSM consisting of a tuple of starting state and trigger as keys, and resulting states as values.
    • initial_state (int / C Enum) – The initial state for the FSM.
    • trigger_parser (Callable [ *[*int ] , str ] , optional) – The trigger parser needed to convert C Enum ints into strings. If None then will just print the integer.
    • state_parser (Callable [ *[*int ] , str ] , optional) – The state parser needed to convert C Enum ints into strings. If None then will just print the integer.
  • Raises:
    • ValueError – If state_transition_table is empty.
    • ValueError – If state_transition_table key not tuple.
    • ValueError – If trigger_parser not of type Callable or None.
    • ValueError – If state_parser not of type Callable or None.
