thriftpy2 0.3.11

========
ThriftPy2
========

ThriftPy: https://github.com/eleme/thriftpy has deprecated, ThriftPy2 aims to provide long term support.


Installation
============

Install with pip.

.. code:: bash

$ pip install thriftpy2

You may also install cython first to build cython extension locally.

.. code:: bash

$ pip install cython thriftpy2


Code Demo
=========

ThriftPy make it super easy to write server/client code with thrift. Let's
checkout this simple pingpong service demo.

We need a 'pingpong.thrift' file:

::

service PingPong {
string ping(),
}

Then we can make a server:

.. code:: python

import thriftpy
pingpong_thrift = thriftpy.load("pingpong.thrift", module_name="pingpong_thrift")

from thriftpy.rpc import make_server

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

server = make_server(pingpong_thrift.PingPong, Dispatcher(), '127.0.0.1', 6000)
server.serve()

And a client:

.. code:: python

import thriftpy
pingpong_thrift = thriftpy.load("pingpong.thrift", module_name="pingpong_thrift")

from thriftpy.rpc import make_client

client = make_client(pingpong_thrift.PingPong, '127.0.0.1', 6000)
print(client.ping())

And it also supports asyncio on Python 3.5 or later:

.. code:: python

import thriftpy
import asyncio
from thriftpy.rpc import make_aio_client


echo_thrift = thriftpy.load("echo.thrift", module_name="echo_thrift")


async def request():
client = await make_aio_client(
echo_thrift.EchoService, '127.0.0.1', 6000)
print(await client.echo('hello, world'))
client.close()

.. code:: python

import asyncio
import thriftpy

from thriftpy.rpc import make_aio_server

echo_thrift = thriftpy.load("echo.thrift", module_name="echo_thrift")


class Dispatcher(object):
async def echo(self, param):
print(param)
await asyncio.sleep(0.1)
return param


def main():
server = make_aio_server(
echo_thrift.EchoService, Dispatcher(), '127.0.0.1', 6000)
server.serve()


if __name__ == '__main__':
main()

See, it's that easy!

You can refer to 'examples' and 'tests' directory in source code for more
usage examples.


Features
========

Currently ThriftPy have these features (also advantages over the upstream
python lib):

- Supports Python 2.7, Python 3.4+, PyPy and PyPy3.

- Pure python implementation. No longer need to compile & install the 'thrift'
package. All you need is thriftpy and thrift file.

- Compatible with Apache Thrift. You can use ThriftPy together with the
official implementation servers and clients, such as a upstream server with
a thriftpy client or the opposite.

Currently implemented protocols and transports:

* binary protocol (python and cython)

* compact protocol (python and cython)

* json protocol

* buffered transport (python & cython)

* framed transport

* tornado server and client (with tornado 4.0)

* http server and client

* asyncio support (python 3.5 or later)

- Can directly load thrift file as module, the sdk code will be generated on
the fly.

For example, ``pingpong_thrift = thriftpy.load("pingpong.thrift", module_name="pingpong_thrift")``
will load 'pingpong.thrift' as 'pingpong_thrift' module.

Or, when import hook enabled by ``thriftpy.install_import_hook()``, you can
directly use ``import pingpong_thrift`` to import the 'pingpong.thrift' file
as module, you may also use ``from pingpong_thrift import PingService`` to
import specific object from the thrift module.

- Easy RPC server/client setup.
