async-websocket-pool 0.3.0

async-websocket-pool is a Python library that enables efficient creation and management of a pool of asynchronous WebSocket clients.

Async WebSocket Pool

This repository contains a Python-based asynchronous WebSocket pool that allows for asynchronous connections to multiple WebSocket endpoints.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine.

Installation

You can install the async-websocket-pool using pip:

pip install async-websocket-pool

Please note that this project requires Python 3.10 or later.

Usage

from async_websocket_pool import connect, run_pool

async def on_message(message):
    print(message)

tasks = [
  lambda: connect(
      'ws://example1.com',
      on_message=on_message,
      timeout=5,
      handler_drain_timeout=2.0,
      handler_cancel_grace=0.5,
  ),
  lambda: connect(
      'ws://example2.com',
      on_message=on_message,
      timeout=5,
      handler_drain_timeout=2.0,
      handler_cancel_grace=0.5,
  ),
]

await run_pool(tasks)

Reconnect and handler shutdown

connect() processes messages concurrently up to max_concurrent_tasks. When a connection times out or disconnects, the library waits for in-flight on_message handlers to finish for up to handler_drain_timeout seconds. Any handlers still running after that are cancelled, and the client waits up to handler_cancel_grace more seconds before reconnecting.

This keeps reconnect latency bounded while still giving well-behaved handlers time to finish. Library users are expected to write cancellation-friendly handlers.
