feat: add Python library extensions for rickshaw Perl-to-Python port#110
Merged
Conversation
…block Extends the Python toolbox with reusable modules for the ongoing Perl to Python3 port: - logging.py: setup_logging() with level mapping (replaces toolbox::logging) - run.py: run_cmd() via invoke (replaces toolbox::run) - parallel.py: ThreadPoolExecutor wrapper (replaces Perl fork patterns) - roadblock.py: native roadblock wrapper for leader/follower roles All modules are stdlib + existing controller image dependencies (invoke, jsonschema). No new workshop.json requirements needed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add toolbox.fileio with open_read_text_file() and open_write_text_file() for transparent xz compression/decompression, matching the Perl open_read_text_file/open_write_text_file interface. Add save_json_file() to toolbox.json as the write counterpart to load_json_file. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Read followers file into a list and pass to set_followers() instead of calling non-existent set_followers_file(). Set user_messages to None explicitly since the roadblock constructor initializes it to [] which passes the 'is not None' check and causes a TypeError.
