pyuv: Python interface for libuv
pyuv is a Python module which provides an interface to libuv. libuv is a high performance asynchronous networking library, used as the platform layer for NodeJS.
libuv is written and maintained by Joyent Inc. and contributors. It’s built on top of epoll/kequeue/event ports/etc on Unix and IOCP on Windows systems providing a consistent API on top of them.
pyuv’s features:
Non-blocking TCP sockets
Non-blocking named pipes
UDP support (including multicast)
Timers
Child process spawning
Asynchronous DNS resolution (getaddrinfo)
Asynchronous file system APIs
High resolution time
System memory information
System CPUs information
Network interfaces information
Thread pool scheduling
ANSI escape code controlled TTY
File system events (inotify style and stat based)
IPC and TCP socket sharing between processes
Arbitrary file descriptor polling
Thread synchronization primitives
CI status
Stable branch (v0.10):
Master:
Versioning
pyuv follows the versioning scheme used by Node and libuv, that is, odd numbered releases are considered unstable and even numbered releases stable. This doesn’t necessarily mean that an odd numbered release is supposed to crash, but the API may change between stable releases.
The so called unstable releases will not be released on PyPI, as that would confuse users. PyPI will always contain the latest stable build. All versions (both stable and unstable) are downloadable from the GitHub tags page.
Documentation
Installing
pyuv can be installed via pip as follows:
pip install pyuv
If you’d like to use the development version use the following command:
pip install pyuv==dev
Building
Get the source:
git clone https://github.com/saghul/pyuv
Linux:
./build_inplace
Mac OSX:
(XCode needs to be installed) export ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" ./build_inplace
Microsoft Windows (with Visual Studio 2008):
./build_inplace
Microsoft Windows (with MinGW, not recommended):
(MinGW and MSYS need to be installed) ./build_inplace --compiler=mingw32
Running the test suite
There are several ways of running the test ruite:
Running individual tests:
Go inside the tests/ directory and run the test, for example: python test_tcp.py
Run the test with the current Python interpreter:
From the toplevel directory, run: nosetests -v -w tests/
Use Tox to run the test suite in several virtualenvs with several interpreters
From the toplevel directory, run: tox -e py26,py27,py32 this will run the test suite on Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.2 (you’ll need to have them installed beforehand)
License
Unless stated otherwise on-file pyuv uses the MIT license, check LICENSE file.
Python versions
Python >= 2.6 is supported. Yes, that includes Python 3 :-)
