🏝 Simplify Cloud Native Microservices development base on FastAPI and gRPC.


Documentation: https://bali-framework.github.io/bali/


Bali

Bali is a framework integrate FastAPI and gRPC. If you want to provide both HTTP and RPC, it can improve development efficiency.

It gives you the following features:

  • A simple layout of file structure rule.
  • Integrated SQLAlchemy ORM and provide generic model methods.
  • Utilities of transform models to Pydantic schemas.
  • GZipMiddleware included and GZip decompression enabled.
  • 🍻 Resource layer to write code once support both HTTP and RPC

Who's using bali framework

Requirements

1. Python 3.7+
2. FastAPI 0.63+
3. grpcio>=1.32,<1.50

Install

pip install bali-core # Bali framework 
pip install bali-cli # Bali command line tool 

Project structure layout

Application

Create Application

app = Bali() # Initialized App

Launch

# With bali-cli 
bali run http
bali run rpc
bali run event

python main.py run --http  # launch HTTP in development mode 
python main.py run --rpc  # launch RPC 
python main.py run --event  # launch Event 

More usage of Application: example

Database

connect

from bali import db

# connect to database when app started
# db is a sqla-wrapper instance
db.connect('DATABASE_URI')  
  

Declarative mode with sqla-wrapper

class User(db.Model):
    __tablename__ "users"
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    ...

db.create_all()

db.add(User(...))
db.commit()

todos = db.query(User).all()

More convenient usage, ref to SQLA-Wrapper

Declare models inherit from convenient base models

BaseModel

# using BaseModel
class User(db.BaseModel):
    __tablename__ "users"
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    ...
# BaseModel's source code 

class BaseModel(db.Model):
    __abstract__ = True

    created_time = Column(DateTime(timezone=True), default=datetime.utcnow)
    updated_time = Column(
        DateTime(timezone=True), default=datetime.utcnow, onupdate=datetime.utcnow
    )
    is_active = Column(Boolean(), default=True)

Transaction

SQLA-wrapper default model behavior is auto commit, auto commit will be disabled with db.transaction context.

with db.transaction():
    item = Item.create(name='test1')

Operators

Operators provided get_filters_expr to transform filters (dict) to SQLAlchemy expressions.

from bali.db.operators import get_filters_expr
from models import User

users = User.query().filter(*get_filters_expr(User, **filters)).all()

Schema

model_to_schema

# generate pydantic schema from models
# `User` is a db.Model or db.BaseModel instance 
from bali.schemas import model_to_schema
UserSchema = model_to_schema(User)

Resource

New in version 2.0.

Resource’s design borrows several key concepts from the REST architectural style.

Inspired by ViewSet in Django REST Framework.

Actions' name according Standard methods in Google API design guide

Generic HTTP/RPC Actions

Generic HTTP/RPC support actions:

Action Route Method RPC Description
get /{id} GET Get{Resource} Get an existing resource matching the given id
list / GET List{Resource} Get all the resources
create / POST Create{Resource} Create a new resource
update /{id} PATCH Update{Resource} Update an existing resource matching the given id
delete /{id} DELETE Delete{Resource} Delete an existing resource matching the given id

Generic Actions examples:

# 1. import `Resource` base class
from bali.resources import Resource


# 2. implementation actions inherited from Resource

class GreeterResource(Resource):

    schema = Greeter

    @action()
    def get(self, pk=None):
        return [g for g in GREETERS if g.get('id') == pk][0]

    @action()
    def list(self, schema_in: ListRequest):
        return GREETERS[:schema_in.limit]

    @action()
    def create(self, schema_in: schema):
        return {'id': schema_in.id, 'content': schema_in.content}

    @action()
    def update(self, schema_in: schema, pk=None):
        return {'id': pk, 'content': schema_in.content}

    @action()
    def delete(self, pk=None):
        return {'id': pk, 'result': True}  # using `id` instand of `result`

Custom HTTP/RPC Actions

Custom actions also decorated by @action, but detail signature is required.

@action(detail=False)
def custom_action(self):
    pass

detail has no default value.

True means action to single resource, url path is '/{resources}/{id}'.

False means action set of resources, url path is '/{resources}'.

Override HTTP Actions

If the default HTTP action template is not satisfied your request, you can override HTTP actions.

# Get the origin router 
router = GreeterResource.as_router()

# Override the actions using the FastAPI normal way
@router.get("/")
def root():
    return {"message": "Hello World"}

More usage of Resource: GreeterResource

ModelResource

New in version 2.1.

class UserResource(ModelResource):
    model = User
    schema = UserSchema
    filters = [
        {'username': str},
        {'age': Optional[str]},
    ]  # yapf: disable
    permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated]

Service Mixin

# import 
from bali.mixins import ServiceMixin

class Hello(hello_pb2_grpc.HelloServiceServicer, ServiceMixin):
    pass

Cache

Cache API

from bali import cache

# Usage example (API)

# Read cache 
cache.get(key)

# Set cache 
cache.set(key, value, timeout=10)

cache memoize

# Import the cache_memoize from bali core 
from bali import cache_memoize

# Attach decorator to cacheable function with a timeout of 100 seconds.
@cache_memoize(100)
def expensive_function(start, end):
    return random.randint(start, end)

Utils

dateparser

dateparser docs

MessageToDict/ParseDict

Optimized MessageToDict/ParseDict from google.protobuf.js_format

from bali.utils import MessageToDict, ParseDict

Tests

gRPC service tests

from bali.tests import GRPCTestBase
from service.demo import demo_service, demo_pb2, demo_pb2_grpc


class TestDemoRPC(GRPCTestBase):
    server_class = demo_service.DemoService  # Provided service 

    pb2 = demo_pb2  # Provided pb2
    pb2_grpc = demo_pb2_grpc  # Provided pb2 grpc

    def setup_method(self):  # Pytest setup 
        pass

    def teardown_method(self):  # Pytest teardown
        pass

    def test_demo(self):
        pass
