当然,应用引擎数据存储有停机时间。但是,我想要一个“故障安全”放置,它在面对数据存储错误时更加健壮(参见下面的动机)。当数据存储不可用时,任务队列似乎是一个明显的延迟写入的地方。不过,我不知道任何其他解决方案(除了通过 urlfetch 将数据发送给第三方)。
动机:我有一个真正需要放入数据存储区的实体 - 仅向用户显示错误消息是行不通的。例如,可能发生了一些无法轻易撤消的副作用(可能是与第三方站点的一些交互)。
我想出了一个简单的包装器(我认为)它提供了一个合理的“故障安全”放置(见下文)。您对此是否有任何问题,或者有一个更强大的实现的想法?(注意:感谢 Nick Johnson 和 Saxon Druce 在答案中发布的建议,这篇文章已经过编辑,对代码进行了一些改进。)
import logging

def put_failsafe(e, db_put_deadline=20, retry_countdown=60, queue_name='default'):
"""Tries to e.put(). On success, 1 is returned. If this raises a db.Error
or CapabilityDisabledError, then a task will be enqueued to try to put the
entity (the task will execute after retry_countdown seconds) and 2 will be
returned. If the task cannot be enqueued, then 0 will be returned. Thus a
falsey value is only returned on complete failure.
Note that since the taskqueue payloads are limited to 10kB, if the protobuf
representing e is larger than 10kB then the put will be unable to be
deferred to the taskqueue.
If a put is deferred to the taskqueue, then it won't necessarily be
completed as soon as the datastore is back up. Thus it is possible that
e.put() will occur *after* other, later puts when 1 is returned.
Ensure e's model is imported in the code which defines the task which tries
to re-put e (so that e can be deserialized).
"""
try:
e.put(rpc=db.create_rpc(deadline=db_put_deadline))
return 1
except (db.Error, CapabilityDisabledError), ex1:
try:
taskqueue.add(queue_name=queue_name,
countdown=retry_countdown,
url='/task/retry_put',
payload=db.model_to_protobuf(e).Encode())

任务的请求处理程序:
from google.appengine.ext import db, webapp
# IMPORTANT: This task deserializes entity protobufs. To ensure that this is
# successful, you must import any db.Model that may need to be
# deserialized here (otherwise this task may raise a KindError).
class RetryPut(webapp.RequestHandler):
def post(self):
e = db.model_from_protobuf(entity_pb.EntityProto(self.request.body))
e.put() # failure will raise an exception => the task to be retried
我不希望每次put 都使用它——大多数时候,显示错误消息就可以了。每次 put 都使用它很诱人,但我认为有时如果我告诉他们他们的更改将在稍后出现(并继续向他们显示旧数据,直到数据存储区备份和延迟执行)。
