General Guidelines:

https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk/general_introduction.html

Gitub:

https://github.com/azure/azure-sdk-for-python


Supported python versions:
Code style:

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/


Naming conventions:

  • service_client = ServiceClient()
  • service_client.list_things()
  • def do_something():
  • class ThisIsCorrect(object):
    pass
  • MAX_SIZE = 4711
  • database_module.py

Method signatures:

DO NOT use, static, do not use get set, use properties

  • class GoodThing(object):
@property
def something(self):
    """ Example of a good read-only property."""
    return self._something

DO specify the parameter name when calling methods with more than two required positional parameters.

  • def foo(a, b, c):
    pass
  • def bar(d, e):
    pass
  • Yes:
    foo(a=1, b=2, c=3)
    bar(1, 2)
    bar(e=3, d=4)
  • No:
    foo(1, 2, 3)


Public vs “private”:

yes- azure.exampleservice._some_internal_module

no – azure.exampleservice.some_internal_module

Types (or not):

DO prefer structural subtyping and protocols over explicit type checks.

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/
Threading:

DO maintain thread affinity for user-provided callbacks unless explicitly documented to not do so.

DO explicitly include the fact that a method (function/class) is thread safe in its documentation.

Examples: asyncio.loop.call_soon_threadsafe, queue
