Python interface to SWF

Typed Python interface to AWS Simple Workflow service

• Type annotations
• Execution state construction
• Consistent method/attribute/parameter names (see below)
• Consistent model struture
• Automatic flattening of paged-list responses
  • next-page calls are run concurrently and on-demand
• Better execution filtering

• python-simple-workflow - higher-level interface layer

Installation

pip install swf-typed

Usage

Example

import swf_typed

execution = swf_typed.ExecutionId(id="spam", run_id="abcd1234")
execution_details = swf_typed.describe_execution(execution, domain="eggs")
print(execution_details.configuration)

events = swf_typed.get_execution_history(execution, domain="eggs")
state = swf_typed.build_state(events)
for task in state.tasks:
    print(task.status)

Terminology

This library uses a slight terminology change from SWF SDKs/APIs:

• Workflow type -> workflow
• Workflow execution -> execution
• Workflow execution workflowId -> execution ID
• Activity type -> activity
• Activity task -> task
• Activity worker -> worker
• Activity task activityId -> task ID
