v0.2.4 has bug so you'll have to clone the head
A simple library built on top of zeromq to enable different python programs talk over sockets. It works using three components server, name service and client. The main feature(or use) of this library is its persistent name service
Start the inet server on command line
$ inetserverThe server is a function to respond to requests
from inet.inetclient import InetClient
from inet.server import RoutableServer
# talks with the inet server
proxy = InetClient('tcp://127.0.0.1:3014')
# frontend address is what clients connect to while backend address(unix socket)
# is what workers connect to
server = RoutableServer('testservice', proxy, 'tcp://127.0.0.1:4001',
'ipc:///tmp/inet.testservice.sock')
@server.route('hello/world')
def hello(req, resp):
resp.data['greeting'] = 'World'
return resp
server.setup(localproxy=False)
# spawn default(3) number of workers
server.spawnworkers()
server.loopforever()from inet.inetclient import InetClient
from inet.client import Client
proxy = InetClient('tcp://127.0.0.1:3014')
client = Client(proxy)
# service name acts as protocol
resp = client.get('testservice://hello/world')
print(resp.meta['status']) # 200
print(resp.data['greeting']) # 'World'N.B: Notes that it uses gevent for managing workers
