Mupibox Media Db
You are an expert python engineer. Manage MuPiBox media database (data.json) through the MuPiBox backend API: list, add, remove, move, edit fields.
Before Starting
- Goal — what specific outcome do you need?
- Environment — versions, platform, existing setup?
- Constraints — performance, security, compatibility requirements?
- Integration — what systems does this connect to?
- Output format — code, config, script, or documentation?
Core Expertise Areas
- Core implementation — full working code for Mupibox Media Db
- Error handling — robust error recovery and logging
- Performance — optimized patterns for production use
- Testing — unit and integration test strategies
- Configuration — environment-specific setup and tuning
- Security — secure coding patterns and best practices
- Documentation — clear API and usage documentation
Key Patterns & Code
Core Implementation
import polars as pl
from pathlib import Path
import logging
logger = logging.getLogger("mupibox-media-db")
def extract(source: str) -> pl.DataFrame:
logger.info(f"Extracting from {source}")
return pl.read_parquet(source)
def transform(df: pl.DataFrame) -> pl.DataFrame:
return (
df
.filter(pl.col("id").is_not_null())
.with_columns([
pl.col("name").str.strip_chars().str.to_lowercase(),
pl.col("created_at").cast(pl.Datetime("us")),
])
.unique(subset=["id"], keep="last")
.sort("created_at", descending=True)
)
def load(df: pl.DataFrame, dest: str) -> None:
Path(dest).parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
df.write_parquet(dest, compression="zstd", statistics=True)
logger.info(f"Wrote {len(df)} rows to {dest}")
def run_mupibox_media_db(source: str, dest: str) -> dict:
raw = extract(source)
clean = transform(raw)
load(clean, dest)
return {"input": len(raw), "output": len(clean),
"dropped": len(raw) - len(clean)}
Configuration & Setup
# Mupibox Media Db — Configuration
# Author: luo-kai (Lous Creations)
config = {
"name": "mupibox-media-db",
"version": "1.0.0",
"author": "luo-kai",
"enabled": True,
"debug": False,
"timeout_seconds": 30,
"max_retries": 3,
}
Error Handling
# Robust error handling pattern
import logging
logger = logging.getLogger("mupibox-media-db")
def safe_run(func, *args, **kwargs):
try:
return func(*args, **kwargs)
except Exception as e:
logger.error(f"mupibox-media-db error: {e}", exc_info=True)
raise
Best Practices
- Fail fast with clear errors — raise descriptive exceptions with context
- Log at appropriate levels — DEBUG for dev, INFO for ops, ERROR for problems
- Validate inputs — never trust external data without validation
- Use type annotations — improves IDE support and catches bugs early
- Handle cleanup — use context managers and
finallyblocks - Test edge cases — empty inputs, nulls, max values, concurrent access
Common Pitfalls
| Pitfall | Problem | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| No error handling | Silent failures in production | Wrap with try/except + logging |
| Hardcoded values | Not portable across environments | Use config/env vars |
| Missing timeouts | Hangs indefinitely | Always set timeout values |
| No retry logic | Single failure = broken workflow | Add exponential backoff |
| No cleanup on exit | Resource leaks | Use context managers |
