Order Fulfillment Pipeline
End-to-end order fulfillment system with state machine-driven lifecycle management, multi-carrier shipping, shipment tracking, returns processing, and fulfillment analytics — all in pure Python.
What's Inside
| Module | File | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Data Models | src/models.py | Order, LineItem, Shipment, Address, ReturnRequest, TrackingEvent |
| State Machine | src/state_machine.py | Order lifecycle with validated transitions and audit trail |
| Pipeline | src/pipeline.py | Main orchestrator: submit -> confirm -> pick -> pack -> ship |
| Shipping | src/shipping.py | Rate calculation, zone estimation, DIM weight, carrier comparison |
| Tracking | src/tracking.py | Event timeline, customer notifications, delivery performance |
| Returns | src/returns.py | Return lifecycle, eligibility checks, refund calculation, restocking fees |
| Carriers | src/carriers.py | Pluggable carrier adapter interface with mock implementations |
Features
- State machine-driven lifecycle — 13 order states with validated transitions, pre/post hooks, and full audit trail
- Batch fulfillment — process multiple orders through picking, packing, and shipping in configurable batch sizes
- Multi-carrier shipping — pluggable carrier adapters, rate comparison across carriers, zone-based pricing with DIM weight
- Free shipping logic — configurable order threshold for automatic free shipping
- Shipment tracking — event timeline management, customer-facing status messages, notification generation
- Returns processing — eligibility checks, restocking fee calculation, disposition tracking (restock/refurbish/liquidate/dispose)
- Configurable return policy — return window, fee waivers by reason, non-returnable tags, refund-without-return threshold
- Delivery analytics — on-time rate, carrier performance comparison, return rate analysis
- Pure Python — zero pip dependencies, Python 3.10+ stdlib only
Quick Start

"""
Carrier Adapters — Order Fulfillment Pipeline
================================================
Pluggable carrier integration interface. Implement the CarrierAdapter
abstract class to connect to your carrier's API for label generation,
tracking updates, and rate queries.
Includes built-in mock adapters for testing. In your environment,
replace these with real API integrations (EasyPost, ShipStation,
Shippo, or direct carrier APIs).
