Venom is an upcoming RPC framework for Python
Project description
Venom is an upcoming RPC framework for Python.
So far, Venom RPC supports unary requests & responses that are defined as methods on services. The framework is designed to support different server implementations. The first implementation is a HTTP/1 protocol implementation using “aiohttp”.
Installation
Venom RPC alpha requires Python 3.5. The final version will likely require Python 3.6.
To install Venom using ‘pip’, enter:
pip install venom==1.0.0a1
Road map
A list of major features required for the first release:
Schema validation
Documentation
An unordered list of potential future features:
Streaming requests & responses with ZMQ
Unary HTTP/1 implementation with “flask”
WebSocket implementation with “aiohttp”
This would be the only solution that fully supports streaming and can be used in the browser today.
gRPC (HTTP/2) implementation with e.g. “hyper-h2”
There’s already an experimental gRPC implentation based on “grpcio”, but without true support for asynchronous calls because that is not supported by the official Python library.
MsgPack serialization support
Protocol Buffer support
JSON Hyper-Schema service
OpenAPI (Swagger) schema service
Client generation from schema
Streamed responses would use Python 3.6 coroutine generators
