@app.subscribe("demo")
def on_event(message: str):
    print(f"INFO :: Received new message: {message}")

• Start your subscriber:

uvicorn app:app

Advanced features

Using error callbacks

from faststan.faststan import FastSTAN


app = FastSTAN()


def handle_error(error):
    print("ERROR: {error}")


@app.subscribe("demo", error_cb=handle_error)
def on_event(message: str):
    print(f"INFO :: Received new message: {message}")

Using pydantic models

You can use pydantic models in order to automatically parse incoming messages:

from pydantic import BaseModel
from faststan.faststan import FastSTAN


class Event(BaseModel):
    timestamp: int
    temperature: float
    humidity: float


app = FastSTAN()


@app.subscribe("event")
def on_event(event):
    msg = f"INFO :: {event.timestamp} :: Temperature: {event.temperature} | Humidity: {event.humidity}"
    print(msg)
