aioxmlrpc

Asyncio version of the standard lib xmlrpc

aioxmlrpc.client, which works like xmlrpc.client but uses coroutines, has been implemented.

aioxmlrpc.client is based on httpx for the transport, and just patch the necessary from the python standard library to get it working.

aioxmlrpc.server, which works much like xmlrpc.server, but runs on the asyncio event loop and handles remote procedure calls (RPC) using both regular functions and coroutines.

aioxmlrpc.server is based on starlette and uvicorn for handling HTTP.

Installation

aioxmlrpc is available on PyPI, it can simply be installed with your favorite tool, example with pip here.

pip install aioxmlrpc

The server dependencies is installed using the extra syntax.

pip install "aioxmlrpc[server]"

Getting Started

Client

This example show how to print the current version of the Gandi XML-RPC api.

import asyncio
from aioxmlrpc.client import ServerProxy


async def print_gandi_api_version():
    api = ServerProxy('https://rpc.gandi.net/xmlrpc/')
    result = await api.version.info()
    print(result)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    loop.run_until_complete(print_gandi_api_version())
    loop.stop()

Run the example

uv run examples/gandi_api_version.py

Server

This example show an exemple of the server side.

import asyncio
from aioxmlrpc.server import SimpleXMLRPCServer


class Api:
   def info(self):
      return "1.0.0"

   async def sleep(self):
      await asyncio.sleep(1)
      return "done"


async def main():
   server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("0.0.0.0", 8080))
   server.register_instance(Api(), allow_dotted_names=True)
   await server.serve_forever()


if __name__ == "__main__":
   asyncio.run(main())
