stompclient is a python 2.6+ client for interacting with STOMP servers (aka brokers).

It supports both a "simplex" (publish-only) client, for use in situations where you just need to send messages to a server (e.g. from the context of a request in a web application) and a "duplex" (publish-subscribe) implementation that supports receiving frames from the server.

This project was motivated by the same "why-is-there-no-decent-python-solution?" sentiment of CoilMQ. Currently this product should be considered beta-quality. There's a good start to testing, but more tests need to be written. And it is possible that the API will need to change.

See the Online Documentation for more.

The package is avialable on PyPI to be installed using easy_install or pip:

shell$ pip install stompclient

Import & start using it:

from stompclient import PublishClient

client = PublishClient('127.0.0.1', 61613)
client.connect()
client.send('/queue/testing', 'This is the body.')
client.disconnect()
