Overview
This slice adds the async counterparts of the SDK's hook and plugin extension points, plus the async flag tracker used by the async client:
AsyncHook(ldclient/hook.py) — abstract base for async hooks.before_evaluation/after_evaluationare coroutines awaited by the async client.AsyncPlugin(ldclient/plugin.py) — abstract base for async plugins.register()is a coroutine (allowing async initialization such as connecting to telemetry backends);get_hooks()remains synchronous and returnsAsyncHookinstances.AsyncFlagTrackerImpl/AsyncFlagValueChangeListener(ldclient/impl/async_flag_tracker.py) — the async flag tracker implementation.Unit tests are added in
ldclient/testing/test_async_hooks.pyandldclient/testing/test_async_flag_tracker.py.The async public classes carry the experimental
.. caution::block, matching the rest of the async surface.This PR depends only on already-merged foundation work and can be reviewed independently.
Tracked internally: SDK-2737
Note
Low Risk
Additive experimental APIs and implementation behind the async client surface; no changes to sync evaluation paths, with behavior covered by new unit tests.
Overview
Adds experimental async extension points and flag-change tracking for
AsyncLDClient, paralleling the syncHook,Plugin, andFlagTrackerAPIs.AsyncHookandAsyncPluginintroduce coroutine-basedbefore_evaluation/after_evaluationandregister(), with syncget_hooks()returningAsyncHookinstances. New public types are marked with the experimental caution block.AsyncFlagTracker(interface) andAsyncFlagTrackerImplimplement async per-flag value listeners: subscription awaits an initial evaluation for a baseline, re-evaluates on config changes, and notifies only when the value differs. Work is scheduled viaAsyncCallbackSchedulerso notifications from worker threads remain safe.Docs clarify that
AsyncReadOnlyStoreis experimental and thatBigSegmentStoreStatusProvider.statusis non-blocking on the async client (available=Falseuntil the first background poll). Unit tests cover hook dispatch semantics and flag-tracker behavior, including cross-thread notify.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 733132b.
