grpc-connection-forwarder 0.1.3

A small package for counting gRPC connections

gRPC Connection Forwarder

grpc_connection_forwarder is a Python package that helps you forward incoming TCP connections to a gRPC server. It is particularly useful when you need to track the number of active connections.

Features

• Forward incoming TCP connections to a gRPC server
• Connection counter with callback support
• Thread-safe implementation
• Easy integration with existing gRPC servers

Installation

You can install grpc_connection_forwarder using pip:

pip install grpc_connection_forwarder

Usage

Here's a simple example of how to use grpc_connection_forwarder with a gRPC server:

import grpc
from grpc_connection_forwarder import GrpcConnnectionForwarder
from your_grpc_package import YourGRPCServer

# Initialize your gRPC server
grpc_server = grpc.server(thread_pool=ThreadPoolExecutor())
your_grpc_service = YourGRPCServer()
# ... (add your services to the gRPC server)

# Define a callback function to handle connection count changes (optional)
def connection_count_callback(count):
    print(f"Connected users: {count}")

# Initialize the gRPC Connection Forwarder
forwarder = GrpcConnnectionForwarder(grpc_server, callback=connection_count_callback)

# Start the forwarder
forwarder.serve(host='localhost', port=50051)
