pusherclientb 0.3.1

Pusher websocket client for python

[](https://travis-ci.org/bartbroere/PythonPusherClient)

pusherclientb

pusherclientb is a python module for handling pusher websockets. This is a branched off version of the original (pusherclient) by Erik Kulyk. It is fully backwards compatible, and in addition provides decoded messages and custom arguments in the callback.

Installation

Simply run “python setup.py install”.

This module depends on websocket-client module available from: <http://github.com/liris/websocket-client>

Example

Example of using this pusher client to consume websockets:

import pusherclient

# Add a logging handler so we can see the raw communication data
import logging
root = logging.getLogger()
root.setLevel(logging.INFO)
ch = logging.StreamHandler(sys.stdout)
root.addHandler(ch)

global pusher

# We can't subscribe until we've connected, so we use a callback handler
# to subscribe when able
def connect_handler(data):
    channel = pusher.subscribe('mychannel')
    channel.bind('myevent', callback)

pusher = pusherclient.Pusher(appkey)
pusher.connection.bind('pusher:connection_established', connect_handler)
pusher.connect()

while True:
    # Do other things in the meantime here...
    time.sleep(1)

Sending pusher events to a channel can be done simply using the pusher client supplied by pusher. You can get it here: <http://github.com/newbamboo/pusher_client_python>

import pusher pusher.app_id = app_id pusher.key = appkey

p = pusher.Pusher() p[‘mychannel’].trigger(‘myevent’, ‘mydata’)

Thanks

Built using the websocket-client module from <http://github.com/liris/websocket-client>. The ruby gem by Logan Koester which provides a similar service was also very helpful for a reference. Take a look at it here: <http://github.com/logankoester/pusher-client>.
