# agutil [](https://travis-ci.org/agraubert/agutil) [](https://coveralls.io/github/agraubert/agutil?branch=dev)

A collection of python utilities

Version: [](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/agutil)

###### Tools: * search_range (A utility for manipulating numerical ranges) * status_bar (A simple progress bar indicator) * Logger (A class for fast, simple, logging) * ActiveTimeout (A class for enforcing a timeout for a set of operations) * Several standalone utility methods (See the [agutil module page](https://github.com/agraubert/agutil/wiki/agutil-%28main-module%29) on the wiki)

The __io__ package:

• Socket (A low-level network IO class built on top of the standard socket class)

• SocketServer (A low-level listen server to accept connections and return Socket classes)

• MPlexSocket (A low-level network IO class which multiplexes I/O through multiple channels. Threadless version of QueuedSocket)

• ~~QueuedSocket (A low-level network IO class built to manage input across multiple channels)~~

  Deprecated: Will be removed in a future release. Please transition to agutil.io.MPlexSocket which is a threadless version of the same interface

The __parallel__ package:

• parallelize (A decorator to easily convert a regular function into a parallelized version)
• parallelize2 (A similar parallelization decorator with a slightly different flavor)
• IterDispatcher (Logical backend for dispatching calls with parallelize)
• DemandDispatcher (Logical backend for dispatching calls with parallelize2)
• ThreadWorker (Task management backend for dispatching parallel calls to threads)
• ProcessWorker (Task management backend for dispatching parallel calls to processes)

The __security__ package:

• SecureSocket (A mid-level network IO class built to manage encrypted network communications)
• SecureConnection (A high-level, multithreaded class for sending and receiving encrypted files and messages)
• SecureServer (A low-level listen server to accept connections and return SecureConnection instances)
• agutil-secure (A command line utility for encrypting and decrypting files)
• EncryptionCipher and DecryptionCipher (Twin classes for agutil’s modular encryption format)
• Several other utility functions and classes for encrypting and decrypting data

## Documentation: Detailed documentation of these packages can be found on the [agutil Github wiki page](https://github.com/agraubert/agutil/wiki)
