FastAPI Pub/Sub

A simple but yet elegant publish/subscribe socket implementation using FastAPI Websocket.

Installation

pip install fastapi-pubsub

How it works

FastAPI provides an awesome implementation of Websockets. But it can be painful to configure it to work as a publish/subscribe mechanism.

FastAPI Pub/Sub implemented a BaseWebSocket that handles all client's connections under the hood. All you have to do is extend this class, overriding the method generate_object_to_send(self) with your desired logic.

A minimun example of a server/client communication can be seen here. Follow the instructions to see it working.

Contributing

Despite being full functional, this project is in a very early stage. Pull requests are very welcome!

In my opinion, a good next step here is to implement some in-memory database to store connections at connection_manager. For now, it uses a dictionary to handle it.
