sdss-tpm-multicast-client 0.1.0b0

TPM multicast client

tpm_multicast_client

Listens to the TPM multicast stream and unpack the status dictionary using Jeff Hagen's tpmdgram code.

Installation

To install with pip do

pip install sdss-tpm-multicast-client

To install from source do

poetry install

More information on developing with Poetry can be found here.

Usage

The library provides a single function, listen_to_multicast, that creates a connection to the TPM broadcast, unpacks the datagram, and passes it to a callback function. A basic example

from pprint import pprint

from tpm_multicast_client import __version__, listen_to_multicast


def pprint_datagram(data: dict):
    pprint(data)

async def main():
    _, protocol = await listen_to_multicast(pprint_datagram)
    await protocol.run_forever()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

The callback, pprint_datagram in this case, can be a function or a coroutine. In the former case it will be called with loop.call_soon(). In the latter the coroutine is scheduled as a task.

CLI

The library provides a simple CLI script tpm-multicast-client that prints the output of the datagram to stdout. It's basically equivalent to the example above.
