+ # python-saga-orchestrator
36
+
37
+ Lightweight embedded saga orchestration for `asyncio` Python services.
38
+
39
+ The library implements the Saga pattern for long-running business processes that:
40
+ - span multiple steps,
41
+ - call external systems,
42
+ - need retry and compensation,
43
+ - must survive worker crashes and process restarts.
44
+
45
+ Unlike external workflow platforms, this library runs inside your service and stores saga state in your application's database through SQLAlchemy.
46
+
47
+ ## What it provides
48
+
49
+ - typed step definitions with `Pydantic` models
50
+ - saga construction with `SagaBuilder` and `StepRef`
51
+ - persisted saga state through `SagaStateMixin`
52
+ - runtime execution through `SagaOrchestrator` and `SagaEngine`
53
+ - retry, timeout, recovery, and compensation
54
+ - administrative operations through `SagaAdmin`
55
+ - PostgreSQL-first reliability using `SELECT ... FOR UPDATE`
56
+
57
+ ## Installation
58
+
59
+ Requirements:
60
+ - Python 3.12+
61
+ - PostgreSQL for production-grade execution semantics
62
+
63
+ Install from source:
64
+
65
+ ```bash
66
+ pip install .
67
+ ```
68
+
69
+ Or install development dependencies:
70
+
71
+ ```bash
72
+ pip install .[dev]
73
+ ```
74
+
75
+ ## Core concepts
76
+
77
+ ### `BaseStep`
78
+
79
+ Each saga step is a class with:
80
+ - `execute(inp) -> out`
81
+ - optional `compensate(inp, out) -> None`
82
+
83
+ Steps are regular Python objects. In practice they are created once at application startup and reused.
84
+
85
+ ### `SagaBuilder`
86
+
87
+ `SagaBuilder` creates an immutable `SagaDefinition`.
88
+ Each added step includes:
89
+ - the step object
90
+ - `input_map`
91
+ - optional timeout
92
+ - retry policy
93
+ - optional dependency on a previous step via `StepRef`
94
+
95
+ ### `SagaStateMixin`
96
+
97
+ Your SQLAlchemy model inherits `SagaStateMixin` to store:
98
+ - current status
99
+ - current step index
100
+ - execution token
101
+ - context
102
+ - step history
103
+ - deadline
104
+ - retry counter
105
+
106
+ ### `SagaOrchestrator`
107
+
108
+ `SagaOrchestrator` is the public runtime API used by application code:
109
+ - `register(...)`
110
+ - `start(...)`
111
+ - `notify(...)`
112
+ - `run_due(...)`
113
+ - `get_snapshot(...)`
114
+
115
+ ### `SagaAdmin`
116
+
117
+ `SagaAdmin` exposes operational controls:
118
+ - `get_saga(...)`
119
+ - `retry_step(...)`
120
+ - `skip_step(...)`
121
+ - `compensate_step(...)`
122
+ - `abort(...)`
123
+
124
+ ## Quick start
125
+
126
+ ```python
127
+ from datetime import timedelta
128
+
129
+ from pydantic import BaseModel
130
+ from sqlalchemy.ext.asyncio import async_sessionmaker
131
+ from sqlalchemy.orm import DeclarativeBase
132
+
133
+ from saga_orchestrator import (
134
+ BaseStep,
135
+ ExponentialRetry,
136
+ SagaAdmin,
137
+ SagaBuilder,
138
+ SagaOrchestrator,
139
+ SagaStateMixin,
140
+ )
141
+
142
+
143
+ class Base(DeclarativeBase):
144
+ pass
145
+
146
+
147
+ class OrderSagaState(Base, SagaStateMixin):
148
+ __tablename__ = "order_saga_state"
149
+
150
+
151
+ class ReserveInput(BaseModel):
152
+ order_id: str
153
+
154
+

163
+ class ChargeOutput(BaseModel):
164
+ payment_id: str
165
+
166
+
167
+ class ReserveInventoryStep(BaseStep[ReserveInput, ReserveOutput]):
168
+ async def execute(self, inp: ReserveInput) -> ReserveOutput:
169
+ return ReserveOutput(reservation_id=f"res-{inp.order_id}")
170
+
171
+ async def compensate(self, inp: ReserveInput, out: ReserveOutput) -> None:
172
+ return None
173
+
174
+
175
+ class ChargePaymentStep(BaseStep[ChargeInput, ChargeOutput]):
176
+ async def execute(self, inp: ChargeInput) -> ChargeOutput:
177
+ return ChargeOutput(payment_id=f"pay-{inp.reservation_id}")
178
+
179
+
180
+ def build_order_saga():
181
+ builder = SagaBuilder()
182
+
183
+ reserve_ref = builder.add_step(
184
+ step=ReserveInventoryStep(),
185
+ input_map=lambda ctx: ReserveInput(order_id=ctx.initial_data["order_id"]),
186
+ )
187
+
188
+ builder.add_step(
189
+ step=ChargePaymentStep(),
190
+ depends_on=reserve_ref,
191
+ input_map=lambda out: ChargeInput(reservation_id=out.reservation_id),
192
+ retry_policy=ExponentialRetry(
193
+ max_attempts=3,
194
+ base_delay=timedelta(seconds=5),
195
+ ),
196
+ )
197
+
198
+ return builder.build()
199
+
200
+
201
+ def setup_saga(
202
+ session_maker: async_sessionmaker,
203
+ ) -> tuple[SagaOrchestrator[OrderSagaState], SagaAdmin[OrderSagaState]]:
204
+ orchestrator = SagaOrchestrator[OrderSagaState](
205
+ model_class=OrderSagaState,
206
+ session_maker=session_maker,
207
+ )
208
+ orchestrator.register("create_order_v1", build_order_saga())
209
+
210
+ admin = SagaAdmin[OrderSagaState](engine=orchestrator.engine)
211
+ return orchestrator, admin
212
+ ```
213
+
214
+ Start a saga:
215
+
216
+ ```python
217
+ orchestrator, admin = setup_saga(session_maker)
218
+
219
+ saga_id = await orchestrator.start(
220
+ saga_name="create_order_v1",
221
+ initial_data={"order_id": "order-123"},
222
+ aggregation_id="order-123",
223
+ )
224
+ ```
225
+
226
+ ## Recovery model
227
+
228
+ The library persists enough state to recover work after failures:
229
+
230
+ - `RUNNING` sagas with expired execution leases can be reclaimed
231
+ - `SUSPENDED` sagas with expired retry deadlines can be resumed
232
+ - `COMPENSATING` sagas can continue rollback after a crash
233
+
234
+ The recovery entry point is:
235
+
236
+ ```python
237
+ await orchestrator.run_due(limit=100)
238
+ ```
239
+
240
+ In production this should be called by a background worker or scheduled job.
241
+
242
+ ## Notifications and external events
243
+
244
+ Use `notify(...)` when a suspended saga should resume because of an external signal:
245
+
246
+ ```python
247
+ accepted = await orchestrator.notify(
248
+ saga_id=saga_id,
249
+ token=current_token,
250
+ event={"approved": True},
251
+ )
252
+ ```
253
+
254
+ The event payload is stored in saga context and can be used by root-step `input_map` functions through `InputContext`.
255
+
256
+ ## Administrative operations
257
+
258
+ Get the full persisted state:
259
+
260
+ ```python
261
+ snapshot = await admin.get_saga(saga_id)
262
+ print(snapshot.status)
263
+ print(snapshot.step_history)
264
+ ```
265
+
266
+ Retry the current failed step:
267
+
268
+ ```python
269
+ await admin.retry_step(saga_id)
270
+ ```
271
+
272
+ Skip the current suspended step:
273
+
274
+ ```python
275
+ await admin.skip_step(
276
+ saga_id,
277
+ mock_output={"payment_id": "manual-payment"},
278
+ )
279
+ ```
280
+
281
+ Start compensation manually:
282
+
283
+ ```python
284
+ await admin.compensate_step(saga_id)
285
+ ```
286
+
287
+ Abort the saga:
288
+
289
+ ```python
290
+ await admin.abort(saga_id)
291
+ ```
292
+
293
+ ## Persistence expectations
294
+
295
+ The library is PostgreSQL-first.
296
+
297
+ Important implementation details:
298
+ - state transitions are performed inside database transactions
299
+ - mutating reads use `SELECT ... FOR UPDATE`
300
+ - JSON state is stored in `context` and `step_history`
301
+ - `step_execution_token` is used to reject stale events and stale step completions
302
+
303
+ SQLite may be sufficient for local experiments, but PostgreSQL should be used for integration testing and production use.
304
+
305
+ ## Example workflow
306
+
307
+ A runnable end-to-end example is available in:
308
+
309
+ - [`test.py`](./test.py)
310
+
311
+ It demonstrates:
312
+ - retry and recovery through `run_due()`
313
+ - compensation after failure
314
+ - admin-driven step skipping
315
+
316
+ ## Running tests
317
+
318
+ Run unit tests:
319
+
320
+ ```bash
321
+ pytest -q tests/unit
322
+ ```
323
+
324
+ Run PostgreSQL integration tests:
325
+
326
+ ```bash
327
+ export TEST_DATABASE_URL='postgresql+asyncpg://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/saga_test_db'
328
+ pytest -q tests/integration
329
+ ```
330
+
331
+ The integration fixture creates an isolated schema per test, so it does not require a dedicated empty database schema.
332
+
333
+ ## Current limitations
334
+
335
+ - the implementation is optimized for sequential saga execution, not parallel DAG execution
336
+ - PostgreSQL is the intended reliability target
337
+ - tracing integration is not implemented yet

+
176
+ admin = SagaAdmin[OrderSagaState](engine=orchestrator.engine)
177
+ return orchestrator, admin
178
+ ```
179
+
180
+ Start a saga:
181
+
182
+ ```python
183
+ orchestrator, admin = setup_saga(session_maker)
184
+
185
+ saga_id = await orchestrator.start(
186
+ saga_name="create_order_v1",
187
+ initial_data={"order_id": "order-123"},
188
+ aggregation_id="order-123",
189
+ )
190
+ ```
191
+
192
+ ## Recovery model
193
+
194
+ The library persists enough state to recover work after failures:
195
+
196
+ - `RUNNING` sagas with expired execution leases can be reclaimed
197
+ - `SUSPENDED` sagas with expired retry deadlines can be resumed
198
+ - `COMPENSATING` sagas can continue rollback after a crash
199
+
200
+ The recovery entry point is:
201
+
202
+ ```python
203
+ await orchestrator.run_due(limit=100)
204
+ ```
205
+
206
+ In production this should be called by a background worker or scheduled job.
207
+
208
+ ## Notifications and external events
209
+
210
+ Use `notify(...)` when a suspended saga should resume because of an external signal:
211
+
212
+ ```python
213
+ accepted = await orchestrator.notify(
214
+ saga_id=saga_id,
215
+ token=current_token,
216
+ event={"approved": True},
217
+ )
218
+ ```
219
+
220
+ The event payload is stored in saga context and can be used by root-step `input_map` functions through `InputContext`.
221
+
222
+ ## Administrative operations
223
+
224
+ Get the full persisted state:
225
+
226
+ ```python
227
+ snapshot = await admin.get_saga(saga_id)
228
+ print(snapshot.status)
229
+ print(snapshot.step_history)
230
+ ```
231
+
232
+ Retry the current failed step:
233
+
234
+ ```python
235
+ await admin.retry_step(saga_id)
236
+ ```
237
+
238
+ Skip the current suspended step:
239
+
240
+ ```python
241
+ await admin.skip_step(
242
+ saga_id,
243
+ mock_output={"payment_id": "manual-payment"},
244
+ )
245
+ ```
246
+
247
+ Start compensation manually:
248
+
249
+ ```python
250
+ await admin.compensate_step(saga_id)
251
+ ```
252
+
253
+ Abort the saga:
254
+
255
+ ```python
256
+ await admin.abort(saga_id)
257
+ ```
258
+
259
+ ## Persistence expectations
260
+
261
+ The library is PostgreSQL-first.
262
+
263
+ Important implementation details:
264
+ - state transitions are performed inside database transactions
265
+ - mutating reads use `SELECT ... FOR UPDATE`
266
+ - JSON state is stored in `context` and `step_history`
267
+ - `step_execution_token` is used to reject stale events and stale step completions
268
+
269
+ SQLite may be sufficient for local experiments, but PostgreSQL should be used for integration testing and production use.
270
+
271
+ ## Example workflow
272
+
273
+ A runnable end-to-end example is available in:
274
+
275
+ - [`test.py`](./test.py)
276
+
277
+ It demonstrates:
278
+ - retry and recovery through `run_due()`
279
+ - compensation after failure
280
+ - admin-driven step skipping
281
+
282
+ ## Running tests
283
+
284
+ Run unit tests:
285
+
286
+ ```bash
287
+ pytest -q tests/unit
288
+ ```
289
+
290
+ Run PostgreSQL integration tests:
291
+
292
+ ```bash
293
+ export TEST_DATABASE_URL='postgresql+asyncpg://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/saga_test_db'
294
+ pytest -q tests/integration
295
+ ```
296
+
297
+ The integration fixture creates an isolated schema per test, so it does not require a dedicated empty database schema.
298
+
299
+ ## Current limitations
300
+
301
+ - the implementation is optimized for sequential saga execution, not parallel DAG execution
302
+ - PostgreSQL is the intended reliability target
303
+ - tracing integration is not implemented yet
