Overview of this book

Python is currently used in many different areas such as software construction, systems administration, and data processing. In all of these areas, experienced professionals can find examples of inefficiency, problems, and other perils, as a result of bad code. After reading this book, readers will understand these problems, and more importantly, how to correct them. The book begins by describing the basic elements of writing clean code and how it plays an important role in Python programming. You will learn about writing efficient and readable code using the Python standard library and best practices for software design. You will learn to implement the SOLID principles in Python and use decorators to improve your code. The book delves more deeply into object oriented programming in Python and shows you how to use objects with descriptors and generators. It will also show you the design principles of software testing and how to resolve software problems by implementing design patterns in your code. In the final chapter we break down a monolithic application to a microservice one, starting from the code as the basis for a solid platform. By the end of the book, you will be proficient in applying industry approved coding practices to design clean, sustainable and readable Python code.

Use case

As an example of how we might organize the components of our application, and how the previous concepts might work in practice, we present the following simple example.

The use case is that there is an application for delivering food, and this application has a specific service for tracking the status of each delivery at its different stages. We are going to focus only on this particular service, regardless of how the rest of the application might appear. The service has to be really simple—a REST API that, when asked about the status of a particular order, will return a JSON response with a descriptive message.

We are going to assume that the information about each particular order is stored in a database, but this detail should not matter at all.

Our service has two main concerns for now: getting the information about a particular order (from wherever this might...
