The lightning-fast ASGI server.

Project description

uvicorn

The lightning-fast ASGI server.


Build Status Coverage Package version

Documentation: https://www.uvicorn.org

Requirements: Python 3.5, 3.6, 3.7

Uvicorn is a lightning-fast ASGI server implementation, using uvloop and httptools.

Until recently Python has lacked a minimal low-level server/application interface for asyncio frameworks. The ASGI specification fills this gap, and means we're now able to start building a common set of tooling usable across all asyncio frameworks.

Uvicorn currently supports HTTP/1.1 and WebSockets. Support for HTTP/2 is planned.

Quickstart

Install using pip:

$ pip install uvicorn

Create an application, in app.py:

class App():
    def __init__(self, scope):
        assert scope['type'] == 'http'
        self.scope = scope

    async def __call__(self, receive, send):
        await send({
            'type': 'http.response.start',
            'status': 200,
            'headers': [
                [b'content-type', b'text/plain'],
            ],
        })
        await send({
            'type': 'http.response.body',
            'body': b'Hello, world!',
        })

Run the server:

$ uvicorn app:App
