simple-threaded-tcp 1.2

Client-Server threaded TCP connector. This project also uses socket library.

Simple threaded TCP

A module for easy TCP threaded connection.

Installation with pip: pip install simple-threaded-tcp

Example code

import socket

from sttcp.server import Server
from sttcp.client import Client

# Creating a TCP server connector object
server = Server('localhost', 62134)

# Defining connection with client behavior
@server.connection_handler
def server_connection_handler(address: tuple, connection: socket.socket):
    if address[0] == '127.0.0.2': # address is a (hostname, port) tuple
        print(f'Connection from {":".join(map(str, address))} declined!')
        return False # Declining client (also allowed to use connection.close())
    print(f'Connected by {":".join(map(str, address))}')
    return True # Accepting client

# Defining receiving information from client behavior
@server.receive_handler
def server_receive_handler(address: tuple, connection: socket.socket, data: bytes):
    received_string = data.decode('utf-8') # Decoding input data
    received_string += '!'
    connection.sendall(received_string.encode('utf-8')) # Sending encoded string to client

# Defining disconnection behavior
@server.disconnection_handler
def server_disconnection_handler(address: tuple):
    print(f'Disconnected by {":".join(map(str, address))}')

# Defining universal behavior
# It being executed at all request phases like Server.HandlerType.connection, Server.HandlerType.receive etc.  
@server.universal_handler
def server_universal_handler(handler_type: Server.HandlerType, address: tuple, connection: socket.socket, data: bytes):
    print('- Server', handler_type, sep=': ')
    return True # If server.connection_handler or something like that is not specified it works instead of them


server.start() # Launching server (execution started in parallel thread)

# Creating a TCP client connector object
client = Client('localhost', 62134)

# Defining connection with server behavior
@client.connection_handler
def client_connection_handler(address: tuple, connection: socket.socket):
    print(f'Connected to {":".join(map(str, address))}')
    # It is required to send anything to server or connection will not finish
    connection.sendall('Meow'.encode('utf-8')) # Sending encoded string to server
    return True # Returning True continues connection and awaits for server response

# Defining receiving response from server
@client.response_handler
def client_response_handler(address: tuple, connection: socket.socket, data: bytes):
    response_string = data.decode('utf-8') # Decoding input data
    print(f'Received string "{response_string}"')
    if response_string == 'Meow!':
        connection.sendall('Really?'.encode('utf-8')) # Sending encoded string to server
        return True # Continuing connection for awaiting future response
    else:
        return False # Stopping connection

# Defining disconnection with server behavior 
@client.disconnection_handler
def client_disconnection_handler(address: tuple):
    print(f'Disconnected from {":".join(map(str, address))}')

# Defining exceptions handling behavior
@client.unconnected_handler
def client_unconnected_handler(address: tuple, exception: Exception):
    print(f'Could not connect to {":".join(map(str, address))}')
    raise exception

# Defining universal behavior
@client.universal_handler
def client_universal_handler(handler_type: Server.HandlerType, address: tuple, connection: socket.socket, data: bytes):
    print('- Client', handler_type, sep=': ')
    return True # The same as the server universal handler return


client.start() # Launching client (execution started in parallel thread)


server.keep_alive()
# server.keep_alive() is only needed to keep thread alive until KeyboardInterrupt will not be raised
# This is optional in cases of you have something like "while True" statement
