Problem
The
connections
module has outgrown its container. There are many things in this module, and it makes it difficult to troubleshoot issues. Scope of impact for methods is not clear. As a result, we have created more connections-related functionality, but spread out across other modules and even subpackages. This led to things like multiple retry methods and treating python models and sql models as completely independent workflows.Solution
"Upgrade" the
connections.py
module to aconnections
subpackage and pull in other connections-related files to properly identify these features as connections features. This will allow us to much better encapsulate each feature and remove redundancy, thereby improving troubleshooting and ultimately decreasing bugs.This PR serves as the first iteration in that goal. The changes in this PR are largely structural and syntactic in nature:
/connections/
and mark them all as private/connections/__init__.py
and raise all members that are used outside of/connections/
