Installation

Using pip:

pip install esdb

Using poetry:

poetry add esdb

Development

1. Install poetry

2. Create virtualenv (i.e. using pyenv):

   pyenv install 3.12.0
   pyenv virtualenv 3.12.0 esdb-py
   pyenv local esdb-py
   

3. Install deps with poetry install

4. Start eventstore in docker: make run-esdb

5. Run the tests: pytest tests

Usage

Have a look at tests for more examples.

Connection string examples

DNS discovery with credentials, discovery configuration, node preference and ca file path

esdb+discover://admin:changeit@localhost:2111?discoveryInterval=0&maxDiscoverAttempts=3&tlsCafile=certs/ca/ca.crt&nodePreference=follower

Single-node insecure connection

esdb://localhost:2111?tls=false

Supported parameters:

• discoveryInterval
• gossipTimeout
• maxDiscoverAttempts
• nodePreference
• keepAliveInterval
• keepAliveTimeout
• tls
• tlsCafile
• tlsVerifyCert
• defaultDeadline

Connection string can be generated here.

Discovery and node preferences

from esdb import ESClient

client = ESClient("esdb+discover://admin:changeit@localhost:2111?nodePreference=follower")

Connection configuration

from esdb import ESClient

# Connect without TLS
client = ESClient("esdb://localhost:2111?tls=false")

# Secure connection with basic auth and keepalive
client = ESClient("esdb://admin:changeit@localhost:2111?tlsCafile=certs/ca/ca.crt&keepAliveInterval=5&keepAliveTimeout=5")

Append, Read, Catch-up subscriptions

import asyncio
import datetime
import uuid

                data={"i": i, "ts": datetime.datetime.utcnow().isoformat()},

Batch append

Catch-up subscription to all events with filtering

import uuid
import asyncio
