Python Database Watcher Library

In a nutshell Python Database Watcher Library is a small library with a set of utilities to help you to monitor and watch the database changes.

Install

> pip install databases_watcher

Supported databases

Redis

Supported modes:

• Queue watch mode: redis://[[user]:[password]]@host:port/?db=[INT]&queue=[STRING]
• Pub/Sub mode: redis+pubsub://[[user]:[password]]@host:port/?db=[INT]&channel=[STRING]
• Changes watch mode (TODO): redis+watch://[[user]:[password]]@host:port/?db=[INT]&queue=[STRING]

TODO: improve watch mode

Usage examples

Redis

Queue watch mode (Sync mode)

from databases_watcher import connect_database

def main():
    redis_watch = connect_database("redis://localhost:6501/?db=0&queue=default")

    redis_watch.send_message("hello!")
    redis_watch.send_json_message({"message": "hello!"})

    print(next(redis_watch.read_messages()))
    print(next(redis_watch.read_json_messages()))


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Queue watch mode (Async mode)

import asyncio

from databases_watcher import connect_database_async

async def main():
    redis_watch = await connect_database_async("redis://localhost:6501/?db=0&queue=default")

    await redis_watch.send_message("hello!")
    await redis_watch.send_json_message({"message": "hello!"})

    async for message in redis_watch.read_messages():
        print(message)
        break

    async for message in redis_watch.read_json_messages():
        print(message)
        break


if __name__ == '__main__':

    asyncio.run(main())

Pub/Sub watch mode (Sync mode)

import time
import threading

from databases_watcher import connect_database

CONNECTION_STRING = "redis+pubsub://localhost:6501/?db=0&channel=default"

def background_read_pubsub():
    redis_watch = connect_database(CONNECTION_STRING)

    print(next(redis_watch.read_messages()))
    print(next(redis_watch.read_json_messages()))


def main():
    redis_watch = connect_database(CONNECTION_STRING)

    t = threading.Thread(target=background_read_pubsub)
    t.start()

    time.sleep(2)

    redis_watch.send_message("hello!")
    redis_watch.send_json_message({"message": "hello!"})

    t.join()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Pub/Sub watch mode (Async mode)

import asyncio

from databases_watcher import connect_database_async

CONNECTION_STRING = "redis+pubsub://localhost:6501/?db=0&channel=default"

async def background_read_pubsub():
    redis_watch = await connect_database_async(CONNECTION_STRING)

    async for message in redis_watch.read_messages():
        print(message)
        break

    async for message in redis_watch.read_json_messages():
        print(message)
        break

async def main():
    redis_watch = await connect_database_async(CONNECTION_STRING)

    asyncio.create_task(background_read_pubsub())
    await asyncio.sleep(2)

    await redis_watch.send_message("hello!")
    await redis_watch.send_json_message({"message": "hello!"})

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