TestServer

from xmlrpcutils.server import SimpleXmlRpcServer
from xmlrpcutils.service import ServiceBase

class SayHelloService(ServiceBase):

    def hello(self, name):
        return f"Hello {name}, how are you!"

class TestServer(SimpleXmlRpcServer):
    
    def register_services(self):
        super().register_services()
        SayHelloService(namespace="debug").register_to(self.server)

app =  TestServer()
app_ctrl = app.get_controller()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app_ctrl()

Start test server

python test_server.py start

Remote call with TestServer

In [9]: from xmlrpc.client import ServerProxy

In [10]: server = ServerProxy('http://127.0.0.1:8381')

In [11]: server.system.listMethods()
Out[11]:
['debug.counter',
 'debug.echo',
 'debug.false',
 'debug.hello',

Use apikey auth mechanism.

Add apikeys in the server's config file

apikeys:
  HyuTMsNzcSZYmwlVDdacERde9azdTKT8:
    appid: test01
    other-app-info: xxx
  SEEpVkus5b86aHxS6UMSCFLxkIhYMMZF:
    appid: test02
    other-app-info: xxx

Add apikey header at the client side

In [93]: from xmlrpc.client import ServerProxy
    ...: service = ServerProxy("http://127.0.0.1:8911", headers=[("apikey", "HyuTMsNzcSZYmwlVDdacERde9azdTKT8")])
    ...: result = service.debug.ping()
    ...: print(result)
pong

Enable server http-keepalive

keepalive:
    enable: true
    timeout: 5
    max: 60

Http-keepalive is not enabled by default, add keepalive.enable=true to enable it.

Enable server response header

server-tokens: true

The response header Server is hide by default, add server-tokens=true to show it.

Enable methodSignature

def myfunc1(arg1:int, arg2:str, arg3:list) -> str:
    pass

• Add returns and args typing to enable methodSignature.

def myfunc2(arg1, arg2, arg3):
    """
    @methodSignature: ["str", "int", "str", "list"]
    """
    pass

• Use doc string @methodSignature: to enable methodSignature.

def myfunc3(args, arg1, arg2, arg3):
    pass
myfunc3._methodSignature = ["str", "int", "str", "list"]

• Use extra attr to enable methodSignature.
