# taskcontrol (py-taskcontrol)

## IN ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT

##### Workflow Automation Library with support for Concurrent or Event based processes or activities in Local/Network Automation Tasks, including CI/CD activities.

* `taskcontrol (py-taskcontrol)` is a python library to create tasks in and based on named taskflow controls. It allows middlewares before and after each task with support for concurrent processing. taskcontrol can run single or multiple tasks during task invocation/runs.
* It provides a simple decorator called `task` that takes arguments to set up the named taskflow controls. It also provides methods to create a plugin and allow working with tasks as a module and/or pre-created ordered task list. Taskcontrol allows for scaling of plugin development with various utilities like authentication, logging, concurrency, sockets, events, publisher-subscriber architectures, webhooks, client-server http api servers etc.

# Features

* Create Named task controls (tasks) - instance isolated and shared
* Allows creation of before / after middlewares for each task with access read-only contexts and results of middlewares/tasks
* Allows merging two instances of taskcontrols with namespace clash handling
* Run a private instance, shared instance, and mix (private and shared) of instances (individual or all groups)
* Allows working with Logging, Sockets, Events, Queues, etc
* Allows working with Publisher-Subscriber (Message Queue) Architecture, Client-Agent Architecture, Agent-less Architecture, and Webhooks
* In-Development:
* Allows support for / working with Concurrency (Threads/ Processes) (T)
* Allows working with Commands & Scripts (T), SSH (T), etc
* Allows working with Scheduling (T), Files (T - normal, yaml, ini, and csv), etc
* Allows working with ORMs/Databases (with in-memory support) (T), Authentication (T)
* Allows creating, registering, and using tasks / workflows as a plugin
* Planned Integrations with Subversioning, Build Tools, Deployment
* Planned Integrations with Data Transformation / Analytics Tooling
* Planned Integrations with Testing, and Infrastructure Automation toolings
* Monitoring Support (T)
* Allows working with best practices like Dependency Injection (T) within the library (including Tasks, Workflow)
* Hooks support after dependency-injection package integration
* Provided in and Allows plugins support for Python, Javascript languages

# Technical Specifications

##### Requirements:

* Python 3.x and above (any OS)

##### Package Dependencies:

* dependency-injector (planned todo)

##### Quick Demo:

[General demo example - main_workflow.py](https://github.com/taskcontrols/py-taskcontrol/blob/master/demos/main_workflow.py)

```python

from taskcontrol import Workflow, task

sparrow = Workflow()

@task(
name="migrate",
task_instance=sparrow
)
def fly(ctx, result, *args, **kwargs):
print("Running my task function: fly", args, kwargs)
return args, kwargs

result = sparrow.start()
print(result)

```

##### Note:

Though it may support Python version 2.x. However, it has not been tested in 2.x. The Syntax and Features of the library supports Python version 2.x. Use at your own risk.

##### Crazy Hint:
You can also create a simple workflow without taskcontrol using a simple list or nested list and loop through them using a for/while loop and invoke them during looping

```python

# Loop the lists below and invoke the functions
lst = ["f1", "f2", "f3"]
nest_lst = [["f1", "f2"], "f3", "f4", ["f5"]]

# Use a reducer if you want to send args to next function like below
def test(a,b):
print(a,b)
return {"a":a, "b":b}
def tester(a,b):
print(a,b)
return None

kwargs_for_first_function_the_its_returns_or_other_value_for_next_func = {"a":"a", "b":"b"}
ls = [kwargs_for_first_function_the_its_returns_or_other_value_for_next_func, test, tester]
import functools
def red(kwargs_for_first_then_func, p):
i = p(kwargs.get("a"), kwargs.get("b"))
return i
functools.reduce(red, ls)

```
