Provider SDKs already retry transient 5xx/429 with exponential backoff
(default max_retries=2), and pytest.mark.flaky covers test-level
retries on top of that. Setting litellm.num_retries=3 here just
multiplied the existing layers — worst case 6 (flaky) x 3 (this) x
2 (CI rerunfailures) = 36 attempts on a single test.
Removing it keeps SDK-level network-blip protection intact and
shortens worst-case latency on cache-miss runs.
This commit updates the codebase to replace instances of DualCache with UserApiKeyCache in various files, including utils, expired_ui_session_key_cleanup_manager, and team_member_permission_checks. Additionally, it enhances the UserApiKeyCache class with new methods for cache management, improving type safety and consistency across the application.
This commit deletes the AuthMetrics class and its associated methods, which were responsible for tracking combined_view SQL query metrics. The PrometheusLogger integration has been updated to remove references to these metrics, streamlining the codebase. Additionally, minor whitespace adjustments were made in the cache coordinator for consistency.
Removes commentary that restated the code, including:
- module-level banners explaining what the conftest does (covered by
Readme.md and the function bodies)
- docstrings on _scrub_response, _before_record_response, vcr_config,
_vcr_disabled, pytest_recording_configure (function names + bodies
are self-evident)
- inline notes about header filtering, match_on, etc.
- per-test docstrings restating the test name
Keeps the two non-obvious notes that aren't recoverable from the code:
the vcrpy/respx httpx-transport collision rationale on
_RESPX_CONFLICTING_FILES, the vcrpy "return None to skip persisting"
contract on filter_non_2xx_response, and the fixture-ordering
dependency on _vcr_record_retries.
Removes the YAML cassette feature entirely and replaces it with a
Redis-only flow. Every test in tests/llm_translation/ and
tests/llm_responses_api_testing/ is auto-marked @pytest.mark.vcr via
conftest.pytest_collection_modifyitems, so any provider call lands in
the Redis cache (litellm:vcr:cassette:<rel_path>, 24h TTL). First run
records, runs within the day replay, day rollover re-records and
surfaces upstream API drift within 24h.
VCR is on by default. Set LITELLM_VCR_DISABLE=1, or simply leave
REDIS_HOST unset, to opt out — both bypass the auto-marker entirely so
nothing about cassettes runs. record_mode is "once" so cache-miss
records and cache-hit replays.
The 8 existing respx-using files in tests/llm_translation are excluded
from the auto-marker (vcrpy and respx both patch the httpx transport;
applying both makes one silently win). The persister's own unit-test
file is also excluded so it doesn't recursively run inside a cassette.
The persister moved from tests/llm_translation/_vcr_redis_persister.py
to tests/_vcr_redis_persister.py so both conftests share it. The two
demo tests in test_anthropic_completion_vcr.py were ported into
test_anthropic_completion.py and the demo file was deleted.
Adds tests/_flush_vcr_cache.py + a Make target
(test-llm-translation-flush-vcr-cache) that scans
litellm:vcr:cassette:* and pipelines DELETEs, for the
"I want the next CI run to re-record now" workflow. Drops the now-dead
test-llm-translation-record target.
Provider keys are still required on cache-miss (which happens on first
run and once a day after that). Replay-mode runs need only Redis.
A managed cntr_ ID can encode a non-OpenAI provider (e.g. azure) with an
empty model_id when streaming events have no router model_info.id. The
provider override was nested inside 'if model_id:', so such IDs unwrapped
the container_id but kept custom_llm_provider='openai', routing the
request to the wrong upstream. Hoist the override out of the model_id
guard.
Stores VCR cassettes in Redis under litellm:vcr:cassette:<rel_path> with
a 24h expiry instead of YAML on disk. The TTL means each daily CI run
starts with an aged-out cache, naturally re-records against live providers,
and surfaces upstream API drift within a day without a manual `make`
re-record sweep. Opt-in via LITELLM_VCR_REDIS=1; default behaviour is
unchanged so local dev keeps the on-disk cassettes.
before_record_response now drops non-2xx responses so a transient 5xx or
429 from a provider can't poison the cache for the rest of the TTL window.
Vcr-marked tests bump litellm.num_retries to 3 during recording so
provider-SDK exponential backoff kicks in on the cache-miss path.
Tests cover the three surfaces we depend on in CI: serialize/deserialize
roundtrip via the real vcrpy serializer, TTL is actually applied to saved
keys, cache miss raises CassetteNotFoundError so vcrpy falls through to
record mode, and 2xx-only filtering across the status-code matrix
(2xx kept, 3xx/4xx/5xx dropped, with 429 and 503 explicitly pinned).
