protocol-proxy 2.0.0rc2

A system for launching and communicating with a proxy application for network communication which runs in a separate process..

Protocol Proxy

This library provides the user with the ability to automatically deploy and manage proxy processes for handling network communication with remote devices using various protocols. A proxy to each remote peer is established in a separate process from the managing application. A manager class handles socket communication between the proxy subprocess and its owner. Individual protocols are implemented as plugins to this library. Integration with event and asyncio event loops are supported for each of the proxy and manager processes.

Automatically installed dependencies

• python = ">=3.10,<4.0"

Installation

This library can be installed using pip:

pip install lib-protocol-proxy

Protocol Proxy plugins should include "protocol-proxy" as a requirement, so users of existing plugins are encouraged to instead install the plugin for that package directly.

Development

This library is maintained by the VOLTTRON Development Team.
