Installation

pip install channels-extensions

Usage

DummyChannelLayer

DummyChannelLayer is an noop (almost) implementation of BaseChannelLayer. Messages sent to it are never available, and receive never returns.

All methods work as checkpoints to the event loop, yielding control back to it at least once.

CHANNEL_LAYERS = {
    "dummy": {
        "BACKEND": "channels_extensions.layers.DummyChannelLayer",
    }
}

get_channel_layer

This is simply a version of channels get_channel_layer, but it raises an ImproperlyConfigured if the alias does not exist.

CurrentSiteMiddleware

A middleware that mimics django's CurrentSiteMiddleware. It adds a site key to the scope:

class EchoSiteConsumer(AsyncConsumer):
    async def websocket_connect(self, event):
        await self.send({
            "type": "websocket.accept",
        })

    async def websocket_receive(self, event):
        await self.send({
            "type": "websocket.send",
            "text": self.scope["site"],
        })

application = ProtocolTypeRouter({
    "websocket": AllowedHostsOriginValidator(
        AuthMiddlewareStack(
            CurrentSiteMiddleware(
                URLRouter([
                    path("echo/", EchoSiteConsumer.as_asgi()),
                ])
            )
        )
    ),
})
