What is Mode?
Mode is a library for Python AsyncIO, using the new async/await syntax in Python 3.6 to define your program as a set of services.
When starting a larger project using asyncio, it immediately became apparent that we needed a way to manage the different services running in the program. Questions such as “how do we shutdown the event loop” is frequently answered by telling users to “wait for all coroutines in asyncio.Task.all_tasks”, but we needed more control over what services where stopped, in what order and what services can we safely shutdown without waiting for current operations to complete.
So for us the answer was to create a generic Service class that handles this for us, including creating pretty graphs of active services in the system, and what they are currently doing.
Heavily inspired by Celery/RabbitMQ bootsteps, you could say it’s a less formal version of that, where the graph is built at runtime.
Creating a Service
To define a service, simply subclass and fill in the methods to do stuff as the service is started/stopped etc.:
class MyService(Service):
async def on_start(self) -> None:
print('Im starting now')
async def on_started(self) -> None:
print('Im ready')
async def on_stop(self) -> None:
print('Im stopping now')
To start the service, call await service.start():
await service.start()
Or you can use mode.Worker (or a subclass of this) to start your services-based asyncio program from the console:
if __name__ == '__main__':
imoport mode
worker = mode.Worker(MyService(), loglevel='INFO', logfile=None)
worker.execute_from_commandline()
It’s a Graph!
Services can start other services, coroutines, and background tasks.
Starting other services using add_depenency:
class MyService(Service): def on_init(self) -> None: self.add_dependency(OtherService(loop=self.loop))Start a list of services using on_init_dependencies:
class MyService(Service): def on_init_dependencies(self) -> None: return [ ServiceA(loop=self.loop), ServiceB(loop=self.loop), ServiceC(loop=self.loop), ]Start a future/coroutine (that will be waited on to complete on stop):
class MyService(Service): async def on_start(self) -> None: self.add_future(self.my_coro()) async def my_coro(self) -> None: print('Executing coroutine')Start a background task:
class MyService(Service): @Service.task async def _my_coro(self) -> None: print('Executing coroutine')Start a background task that keeps running:
class MyService(Service): @Service.task async def _my_coro(self) -> None: while not self.should_stop: # NOTE: self.sleep will wait for one second, or # until service stopped/crashed. await self.sleep(1.0) print('Background thread waking up')
Installation
You can install Mode either via the Python Package Index (PyPI) or from source.
To install using pip:
$ pip install -U mode
Downloading and installing from source
Download the latest version of Mode from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/mode
You can install it by doing the following:
$ tar xvfz mode-0.0.0.tar.gz $ cd mode-0.0.0 $ python setup.py build # python setup.py install
The last command must be executed as a privileged user if you are not currently using a virtualenv.
Using the development version
With pip
You can install the latest snapshot of Mode using the following pip command:
$ pip install https://github.com/fauststream/Mode/zipball/master#egg=mode
FAQ
Can I use Mode with Django/Flask/etc.?
Yes! Use gevent/eventlet and use a bridge to integrate with asyncio.
aiogevent enables you to run Mode on top of gevent:
https://pypi-hypernode.com/pypi/aiogevent
Example:
import aiogevent import asyncio asyncio.set_event_loop_policy(aiogevent.EventLoopPolicy()) import gevent.monkey gevent.monkey.patch_all() # if you use PostgreSQL with psycopg, make sure you also # install psycogreen and call this pather: # import psycogreen.gevent # psycogreen.gevent.patch_psycopg() # Import Django/Flask etc, stuff and use them with Mode.
aioeventlet enables you to run Mode on top of eventlet:
http://aioeventlet.readthedocs.io
Example:
import aioeventlet import asyncio asyncio.set_event_loop_policy(aioeventlet.EventloopPolicy()) import eventlet eventlet.monkey_patch() # if you use PostgreSQL with psycopg, make sure you also # install psycogreen and call this pather: # import psycogreen.eventlet # psycogreen.eventlet.patch_psycopg() # Import Django/Flask etc, stuff and use them with Mode.
Can I use Mode with Tornado?
Yes! Use the tornado.platform.asyncio bridge: http://www.tornadoweb.org/en/stable/asyncio.html
Can I use Mode with Twisted?
Yes! Use the asyncio reactor implementation: https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/17.1.0/api/twisted.internet.asyncioreactor.html
Will you support Python 3.5 or earlier?
There are no immediate plans to support Python 3.5, but you are welcome to contribute to the project.
Here are some of the steps required to accomplish this:
Source code transformation to rewrite variable annotations to comments
for example, the code:
class Point: x: int = 0 y: int = 0 must be rewritten into:: class Point: x = 0 # type: int y = 0 # type: intSource code transformation to rewrite async functions
for example, the code:
async def foo(): await asyncio.sleep(1.0)must be rewritten into:
@coroutine def foo(): yield from asyncio.sleep(1.0)
Will you support Python 2?
There are no plans to support Python 2, but you are welcome to contribute to the project (details in question above is relevant also for Python 2).
