[Python] How to log "retry_success", only if retry got triggered and ran successfully using...

PROBLEM: Trying to generate success log/slack notification, only if retry got triggered and ran successfully. Able to generate the warning log properly, but not success log.. if retry happened.

Using the following code:

import random
import logging
from tenacity import retry, wait_fixed, stop_after_attempt, before_sleep, RetryCallState, retry_if_exception_type

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO, format='%(asctime)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s')

def my_before_sleep(retry_state: RetryCallState):
if retry_state.outcome.failed:
# If it failed, don't do anything special here; before_sleep handles warnings.
logging.warning(
f"Retrying '{retry_state.fn.__name__}' for the {retry_state.attempt_number} time "
f"after {retry_state.outcome.exception()}..."
)
return retry_state.outcome.result # Return the exception for tenacity to handle
else:
# THIS ELSE IS NOT WORKING, AS EXPECTED
logging.info(
f"'{retry_state.fn.__name__}' completed successfully after retries "
f"(attempt {retry_state.attempt_number}). Result: {retry_state.outcome.result}"
)

def my_after_execute(retry_state: RetryCallState):
if not retry_state.outcome.failed:
# IF THE ABOVE ELSE IS NOT SUPPOSED TO WORK, EVEN THIS IF CONDITION IS NOT WORKING.
logging.info(
f"'{retry_state.fn.__name__}' completed successfully after retries "
f"(attempt {retry_state.attempt_number}). Result: {retry_state.outcome.result}"
)
return retry_state.outcome.result # Return the actual result for tenacity to propagate

@retry(
wait=wait_fixed(1),
stop=stop_after_attempt(3),
retry=retry_if_exception_type(ValueError),
before_sleep=my_before_sleep,
after=my_after_execute,
reraise=True
)
def might_fail_function(prob):
# Simulate success or failure
current_prob = random.random()
if current_prob < prob:
logging.info("Function failed on this attempt.")
logging.info(f"current prob: {current_prob}")
raise ValueError("Simulated failure")
else:
logging.info("Function succeeded on this attempt.")
logging.info(f"current prob: {current_prob}")
return "Operation Completed!"

logging.info("Attempt 1: Should fail initially and then succeed with retries")
# fail the function in 1st try and then succeed (THIS PART IS NOT WORKING)
might_fail_function(0.5)
logging.info('-' * 50)


LOG: Expecting the log to generate success message either through custom after callback, or through custom before_sleep callback. But none of that is working:
