InvalidTransition: The transition from pending to failed is not valid

Installation

pip install fsmpy

Usage

  1. Define in a class the state_machine

  2. Initialize state, either with a value, using __init__ or as a django field

  3. Add hooks:

Method

Description

on_before_change_state

Before transitioning to the state

on_change_state

After transitioning to the state, if no failure, runs for every state

pre_<state_name>

Runs before a particular state, where state_name is the specified name in the state_machine

post_<state_name>

Runs after a particular state, where state_name is the specified name in the state_machine

This hooks will receive any extra argument given to change_state

E.g:

Running m.change_state('pending', name='john') will trigger pre_pending(name='john')

Django integration

import fsm
from django.db import models


class MyModel(models.Model, fsm.FiniteStateMachineMixin):
    """An example to test the state machine.

    Contains transitions to everywhere, nowhere and specific states.
    """

    CHOICES = (
        ('created', 'CREATED'),
        ('pending', 'PENDING'),
        ('running', 'RUNNING'),
        ('success', 'SUCCESS'),
        ('failed', 'FAILED'),
        ('retry', 'RETRY'),
    )

    state_machine = {
        'created': '__all__',
        'pending': ('running',),
        'running': ('success', 'failed'),
        'success': None,
        'failed': ('retry',),
        'retry': ('pending', 'retry'),
    }

    state = models.CharField(max_length=30, choices=CHOICES, default='created')

    def on_change_state(self, previous_state, next_state, **kwargs):
        self.save()

Django Rest Framework

If you are using serializers, they usually perform the save, so saving inside on_change_state is not necessary.

One simple solution is to do this:

class MySerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):

    def update(self, instance, validated_data):
        new_state = validated_data.get('state', instance.state)
        try:
            instance.change_state(new_state)
        except fsm.InvalidTransition:
            raise serializers.ValidationError("Invalid transition")
        instance = super().update(instance, validated_data)
        return instance

Development

To run the tests run:

tox

Note, to combine the coverage data from all the tox environments run:

Windows

set PYTEST_ADDOPTS=--cov-append
tox

Other
