winerp 1.5.0

Websocket based IPC for discord.py bots

winerp

An IPC based on Websockets. Fast, Stable, and easy-to-use, for inter-communication between your processes or discord.py bots.

Key Features

• Fast with minimum recorded response time being < 2ms
• Lightweight, Stable and Easy to integrate.
• No limitation on number of connected clients.

Installation

Stable:

pip install -U winerp

Main branch (can be unstable/buggy):

pip install git+https://www.github.com/BlackThunder01001/winerp

Working:

This library uses a central server for communication between multiple clients. You can connect a large number of clients for sharing data, and data can be shared between any connected client.

1. Import the library:

import winerp

2. Initialize winerp client:

ipc_client = winerp.Client(local_name = "my-cool-app", port=8080)

3. Start the client:

await ipc_client.start()
# or
asyncio.create_task(ipc_client.start())

• Registering routes:

@ipc_client.route
async def route_name(source, user_name):
    return f"Hello {user_name}"

• Requesting data from another client:

user_name = await ipc_client.request(route="fetch_user_name", source="another-cool-bot", user_id = 123)

• Sending information type data to other clients:

data = [1, 2, 3, 4]
await ipc_client.inform(data, destinations=["another-cool-bot"])

Example Usage:

Start the server on terminal using $ winerp --port 8080. You can also start the server using winerp.Server

Client 1 (some-random-bot):

import winerp
import discord
from discord.ext.commands import Bot
bot = Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=discord.Intents.all())

bot.ipc = winerp.Client(local_name = "some-random-bot", port=8080)

@bot.command()
async def request(ctx):
    # Fetching data from a client named "another-bot" using route "get_some_data"
    data = await bot.ipc.request("get_some_data", source = "another-bot")
    await ctx.send(data)


@bot.ipc.route()
async def get_formatted_data(source, user_id = None):
    return f"<@{user_id}>"


@bot.ipc.event
async def on_winerp_ready():
    print("Winerp Client is ready for connections")

bot.loop.create_task(bot.ipc.start())
bot.run("TOKEN")

Client 2 (another-bot)

import winerp
import discord
from discord.ext.commands import Bot
bot = Bot(command_prefix="?", intents=discord.Intents.all())

bot.ipc = winerp.Client(local_name = "another-bot", port=8080)

@bot.command()
async def format(ctx):
    # Fetching data from a client named "some-random-bot" using route "get_formatted_data"
    data = await bot.ipc.request("get_formatted_data", source = "some-random-bot", user_id = ctx.author.id)
    await ctx.send(data)


@bot.ipc.route()
async def get_some_data(source):
    return "You are very cool"


bot.loop.create_task(bot.ipc.start())
bot.run("TOKEN")
