🚀 Usage

Basic Setup

from services.calendar_generation_datasource_framework import (
    DataSourceRegistry,
    StrategyAwarePromptBuilder,
    QualityGateManager,
    DataSourceEvolutionManager
)

# Initialize framework components
registry = DataSourceRegistry()
prompt_builder = StrategyAwarePromptBuilder(registry)
quality_manager = QualityGateManager()
evolution_manager = DataSourceEvolutionManager(registry)

Registering Data Sources

from services.calendar_generation_datasource_framework import ContentStrategyDataSource

# Create and register a data source
content_strategy = ContentStrategyDataSource()
registry.register_source(content_strategy)

Retrieving Data with Dependencies

# Get data from a source with its dependencies
data = await registry.get_data_with_dependencies("content_strategy", user_id=1, strategy_id=1)

Building Strategy-Aware Prompts

# Build a prompt for a specific step
prompt = await prompt_builder.build_prompt("step_1_content_strategy_analysis", user_id=1, strategy_id=1)

Quality Gate Validation

# Validate calendar data through all quality gates
validation_results = await quality_manager.validate_all_gates(calendar_data, "step_name")

# Validate specific quality gate
uniqueness_result = await quality_manager.validate_specific_gate("content_uniqueness", calendar_data, "step_name")

Evolution Management

# Check evolution status
status = evolution_manager.get_evolution_status()

# Get evolution plan for a source
plan = evolution_manager.get_evolution_plan("content_strategy")

# Evolve a data source
success = await evolution_manager.evolve_data_source("content_strategy", "2.5.0")

🔧 Extending the Framework

Adding a New Data Source

Create the data source module:

# data_sources/custom_source.py
from ..interfaces import DataSourceInterface, DataSourceType, DataSourcePriority, DataSourceValidationResult

class CustomDataSource(DataSourceInterface):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__("custom_source", DataSourceType.CUSTOM, DataSourcePriority.MEDIUM)
        self.version = "1.0.0"
    
    async def get_data(self, user_id: int, strategy_id: int) -> Dict[str, Any]:
        # Implement data retrieval logic
        return {"custom_data": "example"}
    
    async def validate_data(self, data: Dict[str, Any]) -> DataSourceValidationResult:
        # Implement validation logic
        validation_result = DataSourceValidationResult(is_valid=True, quality_score=0.8)
        return validation_result
    
    async def enhance_data(self, data: Dict[str, Any]) -> Dict[str, Any]:
        # Implement AI enhancement logic
        return {**data, "enhanced": True}

Register the data source:

from .data_sources.custom_source import CustomDataSource

custom_source = CustomDataSource()
registry.register_source(custom_source)

Update the package exports:

# data_sources/__init__.py
from .custom_source import CustomDataSource

__all__ = [
    # ... existing exports
    "CustomDataSource"
]

Adding a New Quality Gate

Create the quality gate module:

# quality_gates/custom_gate.py
class CustomGate:
    def __init__(self):
        self.name = "custom_gate"
        self.description = "Custom quality validation"
        self.pass_threshold = 0.8
        self.validation_criteria = ["Custom validation criteria"]
    
    async def validate(self, calendar_data: Dict[str, Any], step_name: str = None) -> Dict[str, Any]:
        # Implement validation logic
        return {
            "passed": True,
            "score": 0.9,
            "issues": [],
            "recommendations": []
        }

Register the quality gate:

# quality_gates/quality_gate_manager.py
from .custom_gate import CustomGate

self.gates["custom_gate"] = CustomGate()
