# Hapax: Type-Safe Graph Execution Framework

Hapax is a powerful Python framework for building type-safe, observable data processing pipelines. Built on top of OpenLit, it provides multi-stage type checking, rich error messages, and comprehensive monitoring out of the box.

## Features

✨ **Multi-Stage Type Safety**
- Import-time type validation through `@ops` decorator
- Definition-time type checking when building graphs
- Runtime type validation during execution
- Rich error messages that pinpoint issues

🔍 **Static Analysis**
- Graph structure validation
- Cycle detection
- Type compatibility verification
- Configuration and metadata checks

📊 **OpenLit Integration**
- Automatic monitoring and observability
- Execution time tracking
- Success/failure rates
- Graph visualization

🎮 **Intuitive API**
- Fluent interface for building pipelines
- Type-safe operation composition using `>>`
- Rich control flow (branch, merge, condition, loop)

## Quick Start

1. Install Hapax:
```bash
pip install hapax
```

2. Create your first pipeline:
```python
from hapax import ops, graph
import openlit
from typing import List, Dict

# Initialize OpenLit (optional but recommended)
openlit.init(otlp_endpoint="http://127.0.0.1:4318")

# Define operations - type checked at import time
@ops(name="clean_text")
def clean_text(text: str) -> str:
return text.lower().strip()

@ops(name="tokenize")
def tokenize(text: str) -> List[str]:
return text.split()

@ops(name="analyze")
def analyze(tokens: List[str]) -> Dict[str, int]:
from collections import Counter
return dict(Counter(tokens))

# Build pipeline - type compatibility checked at definition time
pipeline = (
Graph("text_processing")
.then(clean_text) # str -> str
.then(tokenize) # str -> List[str]
.then(analyze) # List[str] -> Dict[str, int]
)

# Execute pipeline - types checked at runtime
result = pipeline.execute("Hello World! Hello Hapax!")
```

## Core Concepts

### 1. Operations

Operations are pure functions with multi-stage type checking:

```python
@ops(name="summarize", tags=["nlp"])
def summarize(text: str) -> str:
"""Generate a concise summary."""
return summary

# Type checking happens at:
# 1. Import time - through @ops decorator
# 2. Definition time - when used in a graph
# 3. Runtime - during execution
result = summarize(42) # Runtime TypeError: Expected str, got int
```

### 2. Graph Building

Build complex pipelines with immediate type validation:

```python
# Using the fluent API - type compatibility checked at definition time
pipeline = (
Graph("text_analysis")
.then(clean_text) # str -> str
.branch(
summarize, # str -> str
sentiment_analysis # str -> float
)
.merge(combine_results)
)

# Or using the >> operator for composition
pipeline = clean_text >> tokenize >> analyze # Type compatibility checked immediately
```

### 3. Control Flow

Rich control flow operations with type safety:

```python
# Parallel Processing
pipeline = (
Graph("parallel_nlp")
.branch(
summarize, # Branch 1: str -> str
extract_entities, # Branch 2: str -> List[str]
analyze_sentiment # Branch 3: str -> float
)
.merge(lambda results: {
"summary": results[0],
"entities": results[1],
"sentiment": results[2]
})
)

# Conditional Logic
pipeline = (
Graph("smart_translate")
.then(detect_language)
.condition(
lambda lang: lang != "en",
translate_to_english, # If true
lambda x: x # If false (pass through)
)
)
```

## OpenLit Integration

Hapax is built on OpenLit for automatic monitoring:

```python
# 1. Basic Setup
import openlit
openlit.init(otlp_endpoint="http://localhost:4318")

# 2. Operation-Level Monitoring
@ops(
name="tokenize",
tags=["nlp"],
openlit_config={
"trace_content": True,
"disable_metrics": False
}
)
def tokenize(text: str) -> List[str]:
return text.split()

# 3. Graph-Level Monitoring
@graph(
name="nlp_pipeline",
description="Process text using NLP"
)
def process_text(text: str) -> Dict[str, Any]:
return clean >> analyze
```

## Error Handling

Hapax provides clear error messages:

```python
# Type Mismatch
TypeError: Cannot compose operations: output type List[str] does not match input type Dict[str, Any]

# Structural Issues
GraphValidationError: Graph contains cycles: [['op1', 'op2', 'op1']]

# Runtime Errors
BranchError: Errors in branches: [('sentiment', ValueError('Invalid input'))]
```

## Best Practices

1. **Type Safety**
- Always specify input and output types
- Let Hapax handle type validation
- Use mypy for additional static checking

2. **Operation Design**
- Keep operations pure and focused
- Use meaningful names
- Add proper documentation

3. **Monitoring**
- Initialize OpenLit early
- Add meaningful tags
- Use trace_content for debugging

4. **Error Handling**
- Handle branch errors appropriately
- Check partial results in case of failures
- Use the rich error information
