SSE plugin for Starlette
Project description
Server Sent Events for Starlette
Installation:
pip install sse-starlette
Usage:
import asyncio
import uvicorn
from starlette.applications import Starlette
from starlette.routing import Route
from sse_starlette.sse import EventSourceResponse
async def numbers(minimum, maximum):
for i in range(minimum, maximum + 1):
await asyncio.sleep(0.9)
yield dict(data=i)
async def sse(request):
generator = numbers(1, 5)
return EventSourceResponse(generator)
routes = [
Route("/", endpoint=sse)
]
app = Starlette(debug=True, routes=routes)
if __name__ == "__main__":
uvicorn.run(app, host="0.0.0.0", port=8000, log_level='info')
Output:
Caveat: SSE streaming does not work in combination with GZipMiddleware.
Be aware that for proper server shutdown the application must stop all
running tasks (generators). Otherwise you might experience the following warnings
at shutdown: Waiting for background tasks to complete. (CTRL+C to force quit)
.
Client disconnects need to be handled in the Request handler (see example.py):
async def endless(req: Request):
async def event_publisher():
i = 0
while True:
disconnected = await req.is_disconnected()
if disconnected:
_log.info(f"Disconnecting client {req.client}")
break
i += 1
yield dict(data=i)
await asyncio.sleep(0.2)
_log.info(f"Disconnected from client {req.client}")
return EventSourceResponse(event_publisher())
Run the tests:
make test
