Overview ๐#
FunChain is an open-source python package that implements tools for function composition, and reduces the code needed to create a pipeline to process data sequentially or through multiple branches in isolation, and capture errors from being propagated, then reports them at the end of each execution.
The idea behind this package is to help make and maintain reusable components ๐งฉ that could be combined, to make data processing easier and more scalable.
Its declarative syntax is intentionally easy and intuitive, this makes it easy to learn and to get started with;
The performance is a priority, and the package will always evolve towards being more optimized and to reduce its impact as much as itโs possible.
It is flexible enough to be integrated in bigger projects, or to be extended with more functionality.
It supports
async
๐ out of the box to make it the best choice for IO bound operation, like network fetching.
Dependencies ๐ฆ#
FunChain uses Failures [โฎฉ] under the hood to gather and report errors
Versioning ๐ท๏ธ#
This python package follows the semantic versioning specification, so breaking changes
will only be introduced in MAJOR version bumps (i.e. from 1.x.x
to 2.x.x
).
As long as your app relies on a specific version (i.e. 1.x.x
), the next MINOR releases will always be
backward compatible.
Note
However, itโs worth mentioning that funchain
is still in its experimental phase,
but itโs being tested and actively maintained.
Future changes will be documented in the CHANGELOG.md
file.
