Python events handling

Project description

Axel is a very small Python library for events handling.

Examples:

from axel import Event

event = Event()
def on_event(*args, **kwargs):
    return (args, kwargs)

event += on_event                     #handler registration
print(event(10, 20, y=30))
>> ((True, ((10, 20), {'y': 30}), <function on_event at 0x00BAA270>),)

event -= on_event                     #handler is unregistered
print(event(10, 20, y=30))
>> None


class Mouse(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.click = Event(self)
        self.click += self.on_click   #handler registration

    def on_click(self, sender, *args, **kwargs):
        assert isinstance(sender, Mouse), 'Wrong sender'
        return (args, kwargs)

mouse = Mouse()
print(mouse.click(10, 20))
>> ((True, ((10, 20), {}),
>>  <bound method Mouse.on_click of <__main__.Mouse object at ...>>),)

mouse.click -= mouse.on_click         #handler is unregistered
print(mouse.click(10, 20))
>> None

Features:

- handlers can receive the sender as their first argument
- handlers are always executed in separate threads
- handlers may be executed synchronous or asynchronous
- handlers execution may be synchronized on a lock
- the time allocated for the execution of a handler is controllable
- the number of actively executed handlers at one time is controllable
- the execution result of a handler can be memoized
- the result of the execution is provided as a tuple ((flag, result, handler),)
- in case of error, the traceback may be provided for each handler in error

Please see the documentation: https://pythonhosted.org/axel

Latest versions available on Github, they will be deployed on pypi on version change
