fastjsonrpc 0.1

A library for writing asynchronous JSON-RPC servers and clients in Python, using Twisted.

Introduction

A library for writing asynchronous JSON-RPC servers and clients in Python, using Twisted. It aims to be as simple and easy to understand (and hack) as possible.

Read more about JSON-RPC at http://www.jsonrpc.org/

Features

• Support for HTTP and HTTPS as protocol (via twisted.web), more might come in the future.

• Full standards compliance.

• Support both JSON-RPC standards at once - great if you don’t control your clients.

• ‘Just work’ with various clients (i.e. PHP, C++, JavaScript…)

TODO

• More tests, better (functionality) coverage. This applies to every project, always :-) .

Notes

• JSON is well readable for a human. It’s easy to use Wireshark (www.wireshark.org) or similar for debugging.

• JSON-RPC version 1 doesn’t talk about batch requests. In order to support both standards at once, fastjsonrpc supports it just like in version 2. It ties JSON-RPC version to the method call, not the request as a whole.

• I didn’t test the JSON Class hinting, as mentioned in the version 1 spec. I leave this to the JSON parsing capabilities of respective libraries.
