PyDataSocket 0.0.1

A Python module for sending data across TCP sockets

PyDataSocket

This module provides an extremely easy to use python implementation of TCP Sockets for sending data. The supported data formats are anything that is json-serializable when using the DataSocket.JSON mode or anything that can be converted to a numpy array when using the DataSocket.NUMPY mode. This implementation utilizes threading so they are non-blocking. See the examples for how to use.

Install

• git clone https://github.com/psomers3/PyDataSocket.git
• cd PyDataSocket
• pip install .

SendSocket()

The send socket is where the data form to use (JSON or NUMPY) is set and then informs the connecting RecieveSocket upon a successful connection. Data can be sent using SendSocket.send_data().

ReceiveSocket()

The data recieved by the receive socket is accessed by assigning a function to handler_function upon creation that will be called everytime a new chunk of data is recieved. This is run on a separate thread, so it will not block more incoming data, but it is recommended to keep the assigned function as short as possible.
