📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Three new public methods are added to the CacheBase class to expose state management APIs: get_state() for retrieving stream state, set_state() for writing stream state, and migrate_state() for cross-cache state transfer. The first delegates to an internal provider; the latter two are placeholder implementations.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
State management API additions
airbyte/caches/base.py
Added three new public methods to CacheBase: get_state() (wrapper delegating to get_state_provider), set_state() (placeholder), and migrate_state() (placeholder).

Estimated code review effort

🎯 1 (Trivial) | ⏱️ ~5 minutes

The changes consist of three straightforward method signatures with minimal logic—one thin wrapper and two placeholder implementations. Single file, clear intent, low complexity. Wdyt—anything specific about these APIs you'd like reviewers to focus on?

Description Check ✅ Passed Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.
Title Check ✅ Passed The title clearly indicates that new cache stream state get and setter APIs are being added, which aligns with the main changes of exposing get_state and set_state on CacheBase. It concisely reflects the primary developer intent without listing every detail and avoids vague or generic language. Although migrate_state is also introduced, titles don’t need to cover every nuance. Overall it accurately summarizes the key change.

1-38: Verify and add imports for StreamState and Literal.

The new methods reference StreamState (confirm its module, e.g. in airbyte.shared.state_providers) and Literal (from typing), but neither is imported. Could you check the correct path for StreamState and add both imports? wdyt?

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Critical issues: Missing self, undefined type, and incorrect logic.

This method has several blockers preventing it from working:

  1. Missing self parameter: Line 284 needs self as the first parameter
  2. Undefined StreamState type: Need to import StreamState from the appropriate module
  3. Parameter name mismatch: Calling get_state_provider(stream_name=stream_name) but that method expects source_name, not stream_name (see lines 253-266)
  4. Return type mismatch: get_state_provider() returns StateProviderBase, not StreamState | None

The intent seems to be retrieving state for a specific stream, but get_state_provider() requires a source name and returns a provider interface, not individual stream state. Would you like to clarify the intended behavior here? Perhaps this should delegate to a method on the StateProviderBase to extract a specific stream's state? wdyt?

Here's a potential fix assuming StateProviderBase has a method to get individual stream state:

-    def get_state(
-        stream_name: str,
-    ) -> StreamState | None:
+    def get_state(
+        self,
+        stream_name: str,
+        source_name: str,
+    ) -> StreamState | None:
         """Return a stream state object for the provided stream name.
 
         This is a thin wrapper around the internal `StateProvider` interface.
         """
-        return self.get_state_provider(stream_name=stream_name)
+        state_provider = self.get_state_provider(source_name=source_name)
+        return state_provider.get_state_for_stream(stream_name)  # Assuming such a method exists

Note: You'll also need to add the import for StreamState at the top of the file.

❓ Verification inconclusive

Missing self and undefined type; placeholder implementation.

The method signature has the same critical issues as get_state:

  1. Missing self parameter: Line 293 needs self as the first parameter
  2. Undefined StreamState type: Need to import StreamState

Additionally, the method body is a placeholder (...). Since this is a draft PR, that might be intentional, but wanted to flag it. When implementing, you'll likely need to delegate to the StateWriter interface via get_state_writer(), perhaps something like:

def set_state(
    self,
    stream_name: str,
    stream_state: StreamState | dict,
    source_name: str,
) -> None:
    """Set a stream state object for the provided stream name.

    This is a thin wrapper around the internal `StateWriter` interface.
    """
    state_writer = self.get_state_writer(source_name=source_name)
    state_writer.write_state(stream_name, stream_state)  # Assuming such a method exists

Does that align with your intended design? wdyt?


Add missing self, import StreamState, and implement the placeholder body

  • Could you add self as the first parameter of set_state?
  • Could you import the StreamState type?
  • Could you replace ... with a call to StateWriter (e.g. self.get_state_writer(...).write_state(...))? wdyt?
🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In airbyte/caches/base.py around lines 292 to 300, the set_state method is
missing self, the StreamState type is not imported, and the method body is a
placeholder; change the signature to include self as the first parameter, add an
import for StreamState at the top of the file, and replace the ellipsis with a
call to the StateWriter usage on this instance (e.g. obtain the writer via
self.get_state_writer(...) and call write_state(stream_name, stream_state) or
equivalent method) so the wrapper forwards the stream name and state to the
internal StateWriter.

🧩 Analysis chain

Missing self, undefined type, and formatting issue; placeholder implementation.

A few issues to address:

  1. Missing self parameter: Line 304 needs self as the first parameter
  2. Missing import: Literal needs to be imported from typing (it's likely already imported at line 7, but needs to be added to the import list)
  3. Extra blank line: Line 302 has too many blank lines (flagged by linter E303)
  4. Placeholder implementation: The method body is ... which is expected for a draft PR

When implementing, this could iterate over the streams and copy state from this cache to the target cache. Something like:

def migrate_state(
    self,
    streams: list[str] | Literal["*"],
    to_cache: CacheBase,
    source_name: str,
) -> None:
    """Copies all matching stream states to the specified `Cache` object.

    This is a thin wrapper around the respective `Cache` objects'
    `get_state` and `set_state` methods.
    """
    stream_list = self._catalog_backend.stream_names if streams == "*" else streams
    for stream_name in stream_list:
        state = self.get_state(stream_name, source_name)
        if state is not None:
            to_cache.set_state(stream_name, state, source_name)

Would this match your vision for the feature? wdyt?

Add missing self, import Literal, and remove extra blank line

  • Include self as the first parameter in the migrate_state signature.
  • Add from typing import Literal to the import statements.
  • Remove the extra blank line immediately above migrate_state.
  • The body is currently a placeholder (...); will you implement the stream iteration and state-transfer logic here? wdyt?
