+ # actvalue.azure-app-config
25
+
26
+ Hydrate `os.environ` from **Azure App Configuration**, with the failure handling that platform
27
+ actually needs. The Python half of [`@actvalue/azure-app-config`](https://github.com/pmosconi/azure-app-config/blob/main/README.md): the same option
28
+ names in snake_case, the same defaults, the same error semantics and the same four invariants.
29
+
30
+ ```bash
31
+ pip install actvalue.azure-app-config
32
+ ```
33
+
34
+ ```python
35
+ from azure_app_config import HydrateOptions, hydrate
36
+
37
+ CONFIG = HydrateOptions(
38
+ keys={
39
+ "shared:mongoUrl": "MONGO_URL",
40
+ "shared:serviceBus": "SERVICE_BUS_CONNECTION",
41
+ "myapp:httpPort": "HTTP_PORT",
42
+ },
43
+ )
44
+
45
+ hydrate(CONFIG)
46
+ ```
47
+
48
+ > **Status: `0.3.0`, pre-1.0.** It matches the TypeScript `0.3.0` release except for `gated()`,
49
+ > which is not here yet (see [Known gaps](#known-gaps)). `1.0.0` follows an API review across both
50
+ > halves. Python 3.11 or later. See the [root README](https://github.com/pmosconi/azure-app-config/blob/main/README.md) for why each behaviour exists
51
+ > and [`CHANGELOG.md`](https://github.com/pmosconi/azure-app-config/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md) for what changed.
52
+
53
+ Everything else comes from the environment by default:
54
+
55
+ | Variable | Meaning | Required |
56
+ |---|---|---|
57
+ | `APP_CONFIG_ENDPOINT` | Store endpoint, read with `DefaultAzureCredential` | yes, unless a connection string is set |
58
+ | `APP_CONFIG_LABEL` | The one label to read (`prod`, `staging`, …) | yes |
59
+ | `APP_CONFIG_CONNECTION_STRING` | Access-key fallback for runs with no identity to borrow | no |
60
+ | `WEBSITE_INSTANCE_ID` | Injected by App Service and Azure Functions. Its absence means a developer machine, where precedence inverts. Verified on App Service and Functions Premium/Elastic; **unverified on Flex Consumption and Linux Consumption**, see [Precedence](#precedence) | set by the platform |
61
+
62
+ ## What it does, in one paragraph
63
+
64
+ `hydrate()` makes **one attempt**: it loads exactly the keys in the map, at exactly one label,
65
+ resolves any Key Vault references with your identity, and writes the values into `os.environ`,
66
+ all or nothing. A success is memoised. A failure is not, but for `retry_floor_ms` (30 s) after
67
+ one, further calls raise `ConfigFloorError` without touching the store, so a stream of messages
68
+ cannot spend a capped store's daily quota. A failure says why: `ConfigLoadError.detail` is what
69
+ the store, the network or the credential actually did. Read [the store's quota](https://github.com/pmosconi/azure-app-config/blob/main/README.md#the-stores-quota)
70
+ before choosing a tier.
71
+
72
+ ## Long-lived processes
73
+
74
+ Bind the port first, answer unhealthy, then hydrate with backoff:
75
+
76
+ ```python
77
+ from azure_app_config import hydrate_with_backoff
78
+
79
+ ready = False
80
+ start_healthcheck(lambda: ready) # listening before anything can fail
81
+
82
+ hydrate_with_backoff(CONFIG) # 5 s → 10 s → … → 600 s, until it succeeds
83
+ ready = True
84
+ main()
85
+ ```
86
+
87
+ It sleeps, and returns only once the store answers, so it belongs in a process's startup and
88
+ never inside a function invocation. It re-raises every `ConfigInputError` at once — a typo is
89
+ not an outage. There is no async variant: an asyncio process that wants one runs
90
+ `await asyncio.to_thread(hydrate_with_backoff, CONFIG)`, knowing that cancelling the task does not
91
+ stop the thread.
92
+
93
+ ## Azure Functions
94
+
95
+ The host builds a trigger's connection before your code runs, so trigger connections stay app
96
+ settings. Everything else is hydrated on first use, at the top of each function. Build one
97
+ options object in a module with no side effects and pass it to every call:
98
+
99
+ ```python
100
+ # config.py
101
+ import logging
102
+ from types import SimpleNamespace
103
+
104
+ from azure_app_config import HydrateOptions
105
+
106
+ log = logging.getLogger("myapp")
107
+
108
+ CONFIG = HydrateOptions(
109
+ keys=KEYS,
110
+ # The success line at warning, so a host that keeps only warnings still shows it; a failed
111
+ # attempt through error, logged once by hydrate() itself.
112
+ logger=SimpleNamespace(info=log.warning, error=log.error),
113
+ )
114
+ ```
115
+
116
+ Module-level clients have to become lazy: a client built at import reads the environment before
117
+ hydration can fill it.
118
+
119
+ **The logger is per attempt, not per call.** The call that starts an attempt logs it — the
120
+ success line, or one failure line; calls that join it, and memo hits, log nothing. That is why
121
+ every call passes `CONFIG`. The default logger is `logging.getLogger("azure_app_config")`, outside
122
+ the `azure` logger tree on purpose: consumers commonly silence `azure` below WARNING.
123
+
124
+ A logging handler may call `hydrate()`: the lines are written once the attempt is settled, so it
125
+ gets the memoised result or a `ConfigFloorError`. The default credential is created before an
126
+ attempt starts and outside the package's lock, so a handler on `azure.identity`, which its
127
+ constructor logs to on the calling thread, may call in too; a `hydrate()` from there raises
128
+ `ConfigLoadError` ("creating the default credential"), unlogged, and nothing is attempted for it.
129
+ Not from a handler on the provider's and SDK clients' loggers (`azure.appconfiguration.provider`
130
+ and the like), though: those run on the load thread, and such a call waits for the attempt it is
131
+ part of until `timeout_ms` fires.
132
+
133
+ ### On a message trigger, wait for the floor
134
+
135
+ After a failed attempt, every call for `retry_floor_ms` raises `ConfigFloorError` and sends
136
+ nothing. A handler that re-raises abandons the message, Service Bus redelivers it at once, and
137
+ every redelivery fails the same way within milliseconds: `maxDeliveryCount` is spent in seconds
138
+ and the message is dead-lettered. Wait as long as `retry_after_ms(error)` says, make one more
139
+ attempt, and only then let the invocation fail:
140
+
141
+ ```python
142
+ import time
143
+
144
+ import azure.functions as func
145
+
146
+ from azure_app_config import ConfigInputError, hydrate, retry_after_ms
147
+ from config import CONFIG
148
+
149
+ app = func.FunctionApp()
150
+
151
+
152
+ def configured() -> None:
153
+ try:
154
+ hydrate(CONFIG)
155
+ except ConfigInputError:
156
+ raise # waiting won't fix it
157
+ except Exception as error:
158
+ wait = retry_after_ms(error) or 0 # None here: the floor is open, go now
159
+ time.sleep(wait / 1000)
160
+ hydrate(CONFIG) # one more attempt; if it fails, the message is retried
161
+
162
+
163
+ @app.service_bus_queue_trigger(arg_name="message", queue_name="rollup", connection="SERVICE_BUS_CONNECTION")
164
+ def rollup(message: func.ServiceBusMessage) -> None:
165
+ configured()
166
+ process(message)
167
+ ```
168
+
169
+ `retry_after_ms(error)` covers both: a `ConfigFloorError`'s own `retry_after_ms`, and for a fresh
170
+ failure the time until the floor it armed opens — rounded up, plus a 50 ms margin, so a timer
171
+ that fires a little early still lands outside the floor. Its `None` means two things — don't
172
+ retry, for a `ConfigInputError`; retry now, for anything else — so branch on
173
+ `isinstance(error, ConfigInputError)`, never on `None`. Nothing to log: `hydrate()` logged the
174
+ failed attempt, and logs nothing for a floor rejection. The pattern assumes `retry_floor_ms` sits
175
+ well inside the invocation's timeout, as the 30 s default does.
176
+
177
+ An **async handler** does the same through `hydrate_async`, which runs `hydrate` on a worker
178
+ thread and shares its memo, floor and in-flight attempt:
179
+
180
+ ```python
181
+ import asyncio
182
+
183
+ from azure_app_config import ConfigInputError, hydrate_async, retry_after_ms
184
+
185
+
186
+ async def configured_async() -> None:
187
+ try:
188
+ await hydrate_async(CONFIG)
189
+ except ConfigInputError:
190
+ raise
191
+ except Exception as error:
192
+ await asyncio.sleep((retry_after_ms(error) or 0) / 1000)
193
+ await hydrate_async(CONFIG)
194
+ ```
195
+
196
+ Callers that arrive while an attempt is in flight — from any thread, sync or async — join it: one
197
+ request, and on failure every one of them receives the identical exception object.
198
+
199
+ ### Timers
200
+
201
+ Call `configured()` (or `hydrate(CONFIG)`) at the top of the function. A failed run fails; the
202
+ next schedule tries again, and the 30 s floor is far shorter than a typical schedule.
203
+
204
+ ### Starting early at import
205
+
206
+ A `hydrate(CONFIG)` at module top is an early start, never the guarantee — handlers still call it.
207
+ Never let it raise at import, which fails the worker's indexing:
208
+
209
+ ```python
210
+ try:
211
+ hydrate(CONFIG)
212
+ except Exception:
213
+ pass # hydrate() logged it; handlers will call again
214
+ ```
215
+
216
+ Import blocks for up to `timeout_ms` while it runs.
217
+
218
+ ### Health without spending quota
219
+
220
+ A health endpoint that calls `hydrate()` starts a store attempt whenever the floor opens, and
221
+ pings from several instances spend a capped store's quota during an outage. `hydration_status()`
222
+ reads what `hydrate()` has done and never makes a request:
223
+
224
+ ```python
225
+ import json
226
+
227
+ from azure_app_config import hydration_status
228
+
229
+
230
+ @app.route(route="health", auth_level=func.AuthLevel.ANONYMOUS)
231
+ def health(req: func.HttpRequest) -> func.HttpResponse:
232
+ config = hydration_status(KEYS)
233
+ return func.HttpResponse(
234
+ json.dumps({"config": config.state, "loadedAt": config.loaded_at, "nextAttemptAt": config.next_attempt_at}),
235
+ status_code=503 if config.state == "failing" else 200,
236
+ mimetype="application/json",
237
+ )
238
+ ```
239
+
240
+ `none` and `pending` are normal: nothing is loaded until a handler asks.
241
+
242
+ ## Precedence
243
+
244
+ Deployed, **the store wins**. On a developer machine a value already in the environment wins, so
245
+ a `.env` line can point one variable somewhere local. `local_overrides_win` defaults to "not
246
+ deployed", read on every attempt from `WEBSITE_INSTANCE_ID`, which App Service and Functions
247
+ inject and `func start`, `python` and pytest never set. **Any other host — Container Apps,
248
+ Kubernetes, a VM — must pass `local_overrides_win=False`.** Local precedence still reads the
249
+ store: the request also checks that the store exists and that the identity holds its grants.
250
+
251
+ The signal is verified on App Service and on Functions Premium/Elastic Premium. **On Flex
252
+ Consumption and Linux Consumption it is unverified** — the host may leave it empty, which reads as
253
+ a developer machine — so pass `local_overrides_win=False` explicitly there until it is confirmed.
254
+ The success line's mode is how you confirm it: `(store wins: WEBSITE_INSTANCE_ID present)` from a
255
+ deployed instance means the signal is there.
256
+
257
+ The success line says which side won and why:
258
+
259
+ ```
260
+ Configuration loaded from App Configuration, label prod: MONGO_URL, HTTP_PORT (store wins: WEBSITE_INSTANCE_ID present)
261
+ Configuration loaded from App Configuration, label prod: MONGO_URL, HTTP_PORT (local wins: WEBSITE_INSTANCE_ID absent)
262
+ Configuration loaded from App Configuration, label prod: MONGO_URL, HTTP_PORT (store wins: local_overrides_win option false)
263
+ Configuration loaded from App Configuration, label prod: MONGO_URL, HTTP_PORT (local wins: local_overrides_win option true)
264
+ ```
265
+
266
+ The option is read by truthiness, so the string `"false"` gives `local wins: … option true`;
267
+ `None` is not passed. An empty `WEBSITE_INSTANCE_ID` is absent. Names only, never values; when
268
+ something was kept, a second line, `Kept from the local environment: …`, names it.
269
+
270
+ ## API
271
+
272
+ ### `hydrate(options: HydrateOptions) -> HydrationResult`
273
+
274
+ One attempt, memoised on success against the key map and label. Raises `ConfigLoadError` when
275
+ the store cannot be read, `ConfigInputError` for a call no retry can fix, `ConfigFloorError`
276
+ inside the retry floor, and a `LookupError` naming every key that was absent, empty or not a
277
+ string at that label. All or nothing: a raise leaves `os.environ` as it was.
278
+
279
+ Every failure that reached the store arms the floor — a refused or failed read, a missing key, an
280
+ input error raised after the store answered. Input refused before any request leaves it alone.
281
+
282
+ A failed attempt is logged once, through the `error` method of the starting call's logger
283
+ (`info` if it has none):
284
+
285
+ ```
286
+ Configuration load failed: <the error's message>
287
+ ```
288
+
289
+ Joiners, memo hits and floor rejections log nothing. A call refused before any request is logged
290
+ the first time its message is seen, and not again until `reset_hydration()`. A logger that raises
291
+ changes nothing; a coroutine a logger returns is closed unawaited.
292
+
293
+ | `HydrateOptions` field | Default | |
294
+ |---|---|---|
295
+ | `keys` | — | **Required.** `{store_key: variable_name}`. No unescaped `*` or `,`; `\*` and `\,` match the literal character |
296
+ | `label` | `APP_CONFIG_LABEL` | Refused if neither is set, or if it holds `*` or `,` |
297
+ | `endpoint` | `APP_CONFIG_ENDPOINT` | |
298
+ | `connection_string` | `APP_CONFIG_CONNECTION_STRING` | Takes precedence when set. Never in the `repr` |
299
+ | `credential` | one `DefaultAzureCredential()` per process | Used for the store and for Key Vault references. The default one is created on first need, reused by every attempt (its token cache survives a failure), and dropped — not closed — by `reset_hydration()`; yours is never touched |
300
+ | `timeout_ms` | `15_000` | Bound on one attempt. Finite, above 0, at most 2**31 - 1 |
301
+ | `retry_floor_ms` | `DEFAULT_RETRY_FLOOR_MS` (`30_000`) | Finite, 0 or more — NaN would switch it off |
302
+ | `local_overrides_win` | `not WEBSITE_INSTANCE_ID`, read every attempt | Dev-only. Other hosts pass `False` |
303
+ | `logger` | `logging.getLogger("azure_app_config")` | `info` gets the success line, `error` (else `info`) a failure |
304
+
305
+ `HydrationResult` is `label`, `applied`, `kept` (tuples of variable names) and `loaded_at`
306
+ (milliseconds since the epoch).
307
+
308
+ **The bound.** `hydrate()` returns within `timeout_ms`. The provider checks its own startup
309
+ timeout only between passes, so a request that hangs would hold it far longer; the load therefore
310
+ runs on a daemon thread, and when the bound fires the call raises and the thread is abandoned —
311
+ anything it later returns is closed, and it never writes the environment, which only the calling
312
+ thread does. The provider holds a failure until five seconds after it started; below 5 000 ms such
313
+ a failure arrives after the bound and is reported from the wire evidence instead.
314
+
315
+ **What ends an abandoned thread, and what does not.** Every store client and every Key Vault
316
+ client the provider builds gets `retry_total=0` and connection and read timeouts of twice
317
+ `timeout_ms` (call it 2T):
318
+
319
+ - No SDK retries, and so no `Retry-After` sleep — azure-core sleeps whatever the header says,
320
+ uncapped, before it re-checks its own timeout, so the only way to bound it is not to retry. The
321
+ caller's floor and backoff do the retrying; the price is below.
322
+ - Each connection attempt is bounded at 2T, and each socket read at 2T of silence.
323
+ - The provider's own loop sends nothing after a failed pass (it backs its only client off for
324
+ 30 s) and raises once its next 5 s delay would overrun `timeout_ms`.
325
+
326
+ Requests inside one pass run one after another: one list request per selector (more if the
327
+ result is paged), then, per Key Vault reference, up to two vault requests (the challenge, then the
328
+ read). So the worst case, if every request answers just inside its limits, is about
329
+ (selectors + pages + 2 × references) × 4T after the load started. Not bounded by this package:
330
+ the credential's own token requests, which have their own timeouts and retries; a server that
331
+ trickles bytes more often than every 2T, since the read timeout is per read; the system resolver;
332
+ and the provider's DNS replica discovery for real `*.azconfig.io` endpoints, a few lookups of up
333
+ to about ten seconds each before the first request.
334
+
335
+ ### `hydrate_async(options) -> HydrationResult` (coroutine)
336
+
337
+ `hydrate()` on a worker thread via `asyncio.to_thread`: the same memo, floor and in-flight
338
+ attempt. Cancelling the task does not stop an attempt already running.
339
+
340
+ ### `hydrate_with_backoff(options, backoff: BackoffOptions | None = None) -> HydrationResult`
341
+
342
+ Calls `hydrate` until it succeeds. `BackoffOptions(initial_ms=5_000, max_ms=600_000,
343
+ on_error=None)`. Re-raises every `ConfigInputError`; sleeps through a `ConfigFloorError` without
344
+ calling `on_error`, logging or widening the delay. After a real failure, `on_error(error,
345
+ next_delay_ms)` gets the real wait — the backoff delay or the time until the floor opens, whichever
346
+ is longer. The default `on_error` logs `Configuration load failed, retrying in <s>s: <message>`,
347
+ guarded so a broken logger cannot end the loop; a custom one that raises ends it. The attempts it
348
+ starts do not also log `hydrate()`'s failure line. A wait longer than 2**31 - 1 ms is slept in
349
+ steps.
350
+
351
+ ### `retry_after_ms(error) -> int | None`
352
+
353
+ | `error` | Returns |
354
+ |---|---|
355
+ | `ConfigFloorError` | Its `retry_after_ms` |
356
+ | `ConfigInputError`, whether or not it reached the store | `None` — waiting won't fix it |
357
+ | Anything else | Time until the armed floor opens (by the `retry_floor_ms` of the attempt that armed it), rounded up, plus 50 ms; `None` if open — retry now |
358
+
359
+ Makes no request.
360
+
361
+ ### `hydration_status(keys, label=None) -> HydrationStatus`
362
+
363
+ `state` is `loaded`, `pending`, `failing` or `none`, with `loaded_at`, `failed_at`, `last_error`
364
+ and `next_attempt_at` (milliseconds since the epoch) as in the TypeScript half. Never makes a
365
+ request and never starts an attempt. Raises `ConfigInputError` for a call `hydrate()` would refuse
366
+ before any request. `next_attempt_at` appears only in `failing` and `none`, while the floor —
367
+ armed by any key map — is closed.
368
+
369
+ ### `reset_hydration()`
370
+
371
+ Clears the memo, the recorded failures, the floor and the set of pre-request errors already
372
+ logged, and drops the package's own `DefaultAzureCredential` without closing it. For tests. An
373
+ attempt still in flight, or an abandoned load thread, settles against the state it started in and
374
+ keeps using the credential it started with; the garbage collector takes it afterwards.
375
+
376
+ ### Errors
377
+
378
+ The cause is always `__cause__`, the Python idiom — there is no separate `cause` attribute.
379
+
380
+ - **`ConfigLoadError`** — `detail` (the reason), `status_code`, `observations` (every distinct
381
+ failure the store's pipeline saw), `__cause__` (the provider's error, unmodified).
382
+ - **`ConfigInputError`** — a call no retry can fix: this package's own checks, and an argument
383
+ the provider refused **before any network activity** (no token asked for, no request sent).
384
+ Anything that fails later is a `ConfigLoadError`, whatever its class — a transient failure can
385
+ arrive as a `ValueError`, and an input error stops every retry for good. `reached_store` is
386
+ therefore always `False` in this release; it stays for parity with the TypeScript half, where it
387
+ is equally defensive, and `hydrate_with_backoff` stops on any `ConfigInputError`.
388
+ - **`ConfigFloorError`** — `retry_after_ms`; `__cause__` is the error of the attempt that armed
389
+ the floor. Neither of the other two, so a count of load failures does not count it and
390
+ `hydrate_with_backoff` waits it out.
391
+
392
+ `DEFAULT_RETRY_FLOOR_MS` is `30_000`.
393
+
394
+ ## What a failure costs, on provider 2.5.0
395
+
396
+ Measured against a local fake store, per attempt at the default 15 s timeout:
397
+
398
+ | Failure | Store requests | Arrives after |
399
+ |---|---|---|
400
+ | Success, or a missing key | one per key | at once |
401
+ | 401 or 403 | 1 (the provider backs its only client off for 30 s) | ~10 s |
402
+ | 429 or 5xx | 1 (no SDK retries, and no `Retry-After` sleep) | ~10 s |
403
+ | Unreachable: failed lookup, refused connection | 0 | ~10 s |
404
+ | A Key Vault reference it cannot parse, or with no URI | one per key, then `ConfigLoadError` naming the reference, with the stored URI withheld | 5 s |
405
+ | A vault that refuses a reference | one per key, then `ConfigLoadError` | ~10 s |
406
+
407
+ A broken Key Vault reference is retried like any other load failure: fixing the reference in the
408
+ store heals the process.
409
+
410
+ **The price of `retry_total=0`, plainly: it is a trade, not a saving.** A single transient 5xx
411
+ or 429 now fails the attempt: at the defaults it arrives after about 10 s (the provider benches its
412
+ only client for 30 s, then waits out its startup timeout) and arms the 30 s floor, so the process
413
+ goes about 40 s without configuration. On the TypeScript half the SDK's own retries would usually
414
+ absorb such a blip inside the attempt. What it buys: one request per failure, and an abandoned
415
+ load thread that ends, since azure-core sleeps a `Retry-After` uncapped. If a blip matters more
416
+ than those, the caller retries — the floor and `hydrate_with_backoff` are built for that.
417
+
418
+
419
+ Requests, not quota units: on a capped tier each one costs several. The provider also logs its
420
+ own warning, `Failed to load configurations from endpoint …`, once per failing attempt, through
421
+ the `azure.appconfiguration.provider` logger.
422
+
423
+ ## Testing a consumer
424
+
425
+ Replace the provider's `load()` at the module boundary — the package looks it up on
426
+ `azure.appconfiguration.provider` at call time — and reset the package and the variables it
427
+ writes between tests:
428
+
429
+ ```python
430
+ import os
431
+
432
+ import pytest
433
+
434
+ from azure_app_config import reset_hydration
435
+
436
+ KEYS = {"shared:mongoUrl": "MONGO_URL"}
437
+
438
+
439
+ class FakeConfig:
440
+ def __init__(self, values: dict[str, str]) -> None:
441
+ self.values = values
442
+
443
+ def get(self, key: str) -> str | None:
444
+ return self.values.get(key)
445
+
446
+
447
+ @pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
448
+ def config(monkeypatch: pytest.MonkeyPatch) -> None:
449
+ reset_hydration()
450
+ for variable in KEYS.values():
451
+ monkeypatch.delenv(variable, raising=False)
452
+ monkeypatch.setenv("APP_CONFIG_ENDPOINT", "https://example.invalid")
453
+ monkeypatch.setenv("APP_CONFIG_LABEL", "test")
454
+ values = {"shared:mongoUrl": "mongodb://example.invalid/app"}
455
+ monkeypatch.setattr("azure.appconfiguration.provider.load", lambda *a, **k: FakeConfig(values))
456
+ ```
457
+
458
+ **Clear the mapped variables too.** A test run sets no `WEBSITE_INSTANCE_ID`, so local precedence
459
+ is on, and a value one test's `hydrate()` wrote would beat the next test's fake store. Do not
460
+ `importlib.reload` the package for fresh state: that makes a second set of error classes that
461
+ `except` clauses elsewhere will not match. Call `reset_hydration()`.
462
+
463
+ ## Known gaps
464
+
465
+ - **`gated()`**, the TypeScript half's wrapper that answers 503 with `Retry-After` for an HTTP
466
+ handler while configuration is not loaded. No Python consumer has HTTP triggers yet; it will be
467
+ added, additively, with the first one. Until then an HTTP handler does it by hand: on any
468
+ exception from `hydrate`, answer 503 with `Retry-After: max(1, ceil(retry_after_ms(error) / 1000))`
469
+ seconds when `retry_after_ms` gives a wait, and without it otherwise.
470
+ - **No dual-build registry, no error brands.** The TypeScript package ships two builds that one
471
+ process can load, so it keeps its state on `globalThis` and brands its errors. A Python process
472
+ imports a module once: there is one state and one set of classes by construction.
473
+ - **No async `hydrate_with_backoff`.** See [Long-lived processes](#long-lived-processes).
474
+
475
+ ## Development
476
+
477
+ From the repository root: `make install-py`, `make test-py`, `make test-integration-py` (the real
478
+ provider against an RFC 2606 `.invalid` endpoint and a loopback fake store — no Azure, no egress),
479
+ `make lint-py`, `make typecheck-py`, `make build-py`.
