  • member_id (ascii bytes) – the id of the member
Returns:

capabilities and statistics of a member

Return type:

CoordAsyncResult

static get_members(group_id)[source]

Return the set of all members ids of the specified group.

Returns:set of all created group ids
Return type:CoordAsyncResult
static heartbeat()[source]

Update member status to indicate it is still alive.

Method to run once in a while to be sure that the member is not dead and is still an active member of a group.

Returns:The number of seconds to wait before sending a new heartbeat.
static join_group(group_id, capabilities='')[source]

Join a group and establish group membership asynchronously.

Parameters:
  • group_id (ascii bytes) – the id of the group to join
  • capabilities (object) – the capabilities of the joined member
Returns:

Return type:

CoordAsyncResult

join_group_create(*args, **kw)[source]

Join a group and create it if necessary.

If the group cannot be joined because it does not exist, it is created before being joined.

This function will keep retrying until it can create the group and join it. Since nothing is transactional, it may have to retry several times if another member is creating/deleting the group at the same time.

Parameters:
  • group_id – Identifier of the group to join and create
  • capabilities – the capabilities of the joined member
join_partitioned_group(group_id, weight=1, partitions=32)[source]

Join a group and get a partitioner.

A partitioner allows to distribute a bunch of objects across several members using a consistent hash ring. Each object gets assigned (at least) one member responsible for it. It’s then possible to check which object is owned by any member of the group.

This method also creates if necessary, and joins the group with the selected weight.

Parameters:
  • group_id – The group to create a partitioner for.
  • weight – The weight to use in the hashring for this node.
  • partitions – The number of partitions to create.
Returns:

A Partitioner object.

static leave_group(group_id)[source]

Leave a group asynchronously.

Parameters:group_id (ascii bytes) – the id of the group to leave
Returns:None
Return type:CoordAsyncResult
leave_partitioned_group(partitioner)[source]

Leave a partitioned group.

This leaves the partitioned group and stop the partitioner. :param group_id: The group to create a partitioner for.

requires_beating = False

Usage requirement that if true requires that the heartbeat() be called periodically (at a given rate) to avoid locks, sessions and other from being automatically closed/discarded by the coordinators backing store.

static run_elect_coordinator()[source]

Try to leader elect this coordinator & activate hooks on success.

static run_watchers(timeout=None)[source]

Run the watchers callback.

This may also activate run_elect_coordinator() (depending on driver implementation).

Stand down as the group leader if we are.

Parameters:group_id – The group where we don’t want to be a leader anymore
start(start_heart=False)[source]

Start the service engine.

If needed, the establishment of a connection to the servers is initiated.

stop()[source]

Stop the service engine.

If needed, the connection to servers is closed and the client will disappear from all joined groups.

Redis

class tooz.drivers.redis.RedisDriver(member_id, parsed_url, options)[source]

Bases: tooz.coordination.CoordinationDriverCachedRunWatchers, tooz.coordination.CoordinationDriverWithExecutor

Redis provides a few nice benefits that act as a poormans zookeeper.

It is fully functional and implements all of the coordination driver API(s). It stores data into redis using the provided redis API(s) using msgpack encoded values as needed.

  • Durability (when setup with AOF mode).
  • Consistent, note that this is still restricted to only one redis server, without the recently released redis (alpha) clustering > 1 server will not be consistent when partitions or failures occur (even redis clustering docs state it is not a fully AP or CP solution, which means even with it there will still be potential inconsistencies).
  • Master/slave failover (when setup with redis sentinel), giving some notion of HA (values can be lost when a failover transition occurs).

To use a sentinel the connection URI must point to the sentinel server. At connection time the sentinel will be asked for the current IP and port of the master and then connect there. The connection URI for sentinel should be written as follows:

redis://<sentinel host>:<sentinel port>?sentinel=<master name>

Additional sentinel hosts are listed with multiple sentinel_fallback parameters as follows:

redis://<sentinel host>:<sentinel port>?sentinel=<master name>&
  sentinel_fallback=<other sentinel host>:<sentinel port>&
  sentinel_fallback=<other sentinel host>:<sentinel port>&
  sentinel_fallback=<other sentinel host>:<sentinel port>

Further resources/links:

Note that this client will itself retry on transaction failure (when they keys being watched have changed underneath the current transaction). Currently the number of attempts that are tried is infinite (this might be addressed in https://github.com/andymccurdy/redis-py/issues/566 when that gets worked on). See http://redis.io/topics/transactions for more information on this topic.

General recommendations/usage considerations:

  • When used for locks, run in AOF mode and think carefully about how your redis deployment handles losing a server (the clustering support is supposed to aid in losing servers, but it is also of unknown reliablity and is relatively new, so use at your own risk).

CHARACTERISTICS = (<Characteristics.NON_TIMEOUT_BASED: 'NON_TIMEOUT_BASED'>, <Characteristics.DISTRIBUTED_ACROSS_THREADS: 'DISTRIBUTED_ACROSS_THREADS'>)

Tuple of Characteristics introspectable enum member(s) that can be used to interogate how this driver works.

Zookeeper

class tooz.drivers.zookeeper.KazooDriver(member_id, parsed_url, options)[source]

Bases: tooz.coordination.CoordinationDriverCachedRunWatchers

This driver uses the kazoo client against real zookeeper servers.

It is fully functional and implements all of the coordination driver API(s). It stores data into zookeeper using znodes and msgpack encoded values.

To configure the client to your liking a subset of the options defined at http://kazoo.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api/client.html will be extracted from the coordinator url (or any provided options), so that a specific coordinator can be created that will work for you.

Currently the following options will be proxied to the contained client:

Name Source Default
hosts url netloc + ‘hosts’ option key localhost:2181
timeout ‘timeout’ options key 10.0 (kazoo default)
connection_retry ‘connection_retry’ options key None
command_retry ‘command_retry’ options key None
randomize_hosts ‘randomize_hosts’ options key True
