aiothrift 0.0.0

aiothrift
=========

Asyncio implementation for thrift protocol, which is heavily based on `thriftpy <https://thriftpy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/>`_.

This project is still in early develop state and thus is not recommended for production usage.

Installation
------------

::

$ pip install aiothrift


Usage example
-------------

Thrift file
^^^^^^^^^^^

::

service PingPong {
string ping(),
i64 add(1:i32 a, 2:i64 b),
}


Server
^^^^^^

.. code:: python

import asyncio
import thriftpy
from aiothrift.server import make_server

pingpong_thrift = thriftpy.load('pingpong.thrift', module_name='pingpong_thrift')

class Dispatcher:
def ping(self):
return "pong"

async def add(self, a, b):
await asyncio.sleep(1)
return a + b

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
server = loop.run_until_complete(
make_server(pingpong_thrift.PingPong, Dispatcher(), '127.0.0.1', 6000, loop=loop))
try:
loop.run_forever()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
pass
server.close()
loop.run_until_complete(server.wait_closed())
loop.close()

Client
^^^^^^

.. code:: python

import thriftpy
import asyncio
import aiothrift

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
pingpong_thrift = thriftpy.load('pingpong.thrift', module_name='pingpong_thrift')

async def go():
conn = await aiothrift.create_connection(pingpong_thrift.PingPong, ('127.0.0.1', 6000), loop=loop, timeout=2)
print(await conn.ping())
print(await conn.add(5, 6))
conn.close()

loop.run_until_complete(go())
loop.close()


It's just that simple to begin with ``aiothrift``, and you are not forced to use ``asyncthrift`` on both server and client side.
So if you already have a normal thrift server setup, feel free to create an async thrift client to communicate with that server.

Requirements
------------

- Python >= 3.4.2
- async-timeout_
- thriftpy_
