fastwapi 0.1.3

A simple API Websocket server to easily parse JSON

Description

FastWAPI is a simple lightweight Websocket framework based on Starlette, which provide easy-to-use Python decorator to parse JSON incoming message.

It's in the same spirit as FastAPI, where each decorator map to an HTTP path. But here, each decorator map to a Pydantic object, and each object map to a function.

Installation

pip install fastwapi

Disclaimer

• The module is available, but far from finished & polished, please do not use it in production.

Roadmap

• Add authent middleware
• Add background job to asynchrounosly send JSON to the client

Usage

See example/main.py for complete code.

Getting started in three steps :

Instanciates the framework and declare the Websocket HTTP endpoint.

import uvicorn
from fastwapi import FastWAPI, WebSocket
from pydantic import BaseModel

app = FastWAPI(endpoint="/ws")

Define Pyndantic model, for incoming and outgoing messages.

class CM(BaseModel):
    counter: int

class SD(BaseModel):
    name: str

Map each Pydantic model to your function.

@app.parse(CM)
async def parse_CM(websocket: WebSocket, data: CM):
    print("RECEIVED CM : ", data)
    await websocket.send_json(data.dict())

@app.parse(SD)
async def parse_SD(websocket: WebSocket, data: CM):
    print("RECEIVED SD : ", data)
    await websocket.send_json(data.dict())

Launch your app

Either through command line "uvicorn main:app" or directly inside the python file :

if __name__ == "__main__":
    uvicorn.run("main:app", port=5000, log_level="info")
