SLA as a plugin
===============

Let's create an SLA (success criterion) plugin that checks whether the
range of the observed performance measurements does not exceed the
allowed maximum value.

Creation
^^^^^^^^

Inherit a class for your plugin from the base *SLA* class and implement its API
(the *add_iteration(iteration)*, the *details()* method):

.. code-block:: python

    from rally.task import sla

    @sla.configure(name="max_duration_range")
    class MaxDurationRange(sla.SLA):
        """Maximum allowed duration range in seconds."""

        CONFIG_SCHEMA = {
            "type": "number",
            "minimum": 0.0,
        }

        def __init__(self, criterion_value):
            super(MaxDurationRange, self).__init__(criterion_value)
            self._min = 0
            self._max = 0

        def add_iteration(self, iteration):
            # Skipping failed iterations (that raised exceptions)
            if iteration.get("error"):
                return self.success   # This field is defined in base class

            # Updating _min and _max values
            self._max = max(self._max, iteration["duration"])
            self._min = min(self._min, iteration["duration"])

            # Updating successfulness based on new max and min values
            self.success = self._max - self._min <= self.criterion_value
            return self.success

        def details(self):
            return ("%s - Maximum allowed duration range: %.2f%% <= %.2f%%"
                     % (self.status(), self._max - self._min, self.criterion_value))


Usage
^^^^^

The new plugin can be used by specifying it in SLA section. Like below:

.. code-block:: json

    {
        "Dummy.dummy": [
            {
                "args": {
                    "sleep": 0.01
                },
                "runner": {
                    "type": "constant",
                    "times": 5,
                    "concurrency": 1
                },
                "context": {
                    "users": {
                        "tenants": 1,
                        "users_per_tenant": 1
                    }
                },
                "sla": {
                    "max_duration_range": 2.5
                }
            }
        ]
    }
