xy-signalrcore 1.0.1

A Python SignalR Core client(json and messagepack), with invocation auth and two way streaming. Compatible with azure / serverless functions. Also with automatic reconnect and manually reconnect.

SignalR core client

改进

在源库基础上修正了如下问题以兼容新版signalR(.NET 6.0)：

1. 补充了negotiateVersion=1 参数
2. 使用signalR链接connectToken参数替换connectionId
3. hubConnection扩展state属性表示连接状态，扩展ready属性表示是否已连接

Develop

Test server will be avaiable in here and docker compose is required.

git clone https://github.com/mandrewcito/signalrcore-containertestservers
cd signalrcore-containertestservers
docker-compose up

Known Issues

Issues related with closing sockets are inherited from the websocket-client library. Due to these problems i can't update the library to versions higher than websocket-client 0.54.0. I'm working to solve it but for now its patched (Error number 1. Raises an exception, and then exception is treated for prevent errors). If I update the websocket library I fall into error number 2, on local machine I can't reproduce it but travis builds fail (sometimes and randomly :()

• 1. Closing socket error
• 2. Random errors closing socket

A Tiny How To

Connect to a server without auth

hub_connection = HubConnectionBuilder()\
    .with_url(server_url)\
    .configure_logging(logging.DEBUG)\
    .with_automatic_reconnect({
        "type": "raw",
        "keep_alive_interval": 10,
        "reconnect_interval": 5,
        "max_attempts": 5
    }).build()

Connect to a server with auth

login_function must provide auth token

hub_connection = HubConnectionBuilder()\
            .with_url(server_url,
            options={
                "access_token_factory": login_function,
                "headers": {
                    "mycustomheader": "mycustomheadervalue"
                }
            })\
            .configure_logging(logging.DEBUG)\
            .with_automatic_reconnect({
                "type": "raw",
                "keep_alive_interval": 10,
                "reconnect_interval": 5,
                "max_attempts": 5
            }).build()

Unauthorized errors

A login function must provide an error controller if authorization fails. When connection starts, if authorization fails exception will be propagated.

    def login(self):
        response = requests.post(
            self.login_url,
            json={
                "username": self.email,
                "password": self.password
                },verify=False)
        if response.status_code == 200:
            return response.json()["token"]
        raise requests.exceptions.ConnectionError()

    hub_connection.start()   # this code will raise  requests.exceptions.ConnectionError() if auth fails

Configure logging

HubConnectionBuilder()\
    .with_url(server_url,
    .configure_logging(logging.DEBUG)
    ...

Configure socket trace

HubConnectionBuilder()\
    .with_url(server_url,
    .configure_logging(logging.DEBUG, socket_trace=True) 
    ... 

Configure your own handler

 import logging
handler = logging.StreamHandler()
handler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
hub_connection = HubConnectionBuilder()\
    .with_url(server_url, options={"verify_ssl": False}) \
    .configure_logging(logging.DEBUG, socket_trace=True, handler=handler)
    ...

Configuring reconnection

After reaching max_attempts an exeption will be thrown and on_disconnect event will be fired.

hub_connection = HubConnectionBuilder()\
    .with_url(server_url)\
    ...
    .build()

Configuring additional headers

hub_connection = HubConnectionBuilder()\
            .with_url(server_url,
            options={
                "headers": {
                    "mycustomheader": "mycustomheadervalue"
                }
            })
            ...
            .build()

Configuring additional querystring parameters

server_url ="http.... /?myquerystringparam=134&foo=bar"
connection = HubConnectionBuilder()\
            .with_url(server_url,
            options={
            })\
            .build()

Congfiguring skip negotiation

hub_connection = HubConnectionBuilder() \
        .with_url("ws://"+server_url, options={
            "verify_ssl": False,
            "skip_negotiation": False,
            "headers": {
            }
        }) \
        .configure_logging(logging.DEBUG, socket_trace=True, handler=handler) \
        .build()

Configuring ping(keep alive)

keep_alive_interval sets the seconds of ping message

hub_connection = HubConnectionBuilder()\
    .with_url(server_url)\
    .configure_logging(logging.DEBUG)\
    .with_automatic_reconnect({
        "type": "raw",
        "keep_alive_interval": 10,
        "reconnect_interval": 5,
        "max_attempts": 5
    }).build()

Configuring logging

hub_connection = HubConnectionBuilder()\
    .with_url(server_url)\
    .configure_logging(logging.DEBUG)\
    .with_automatic_reconnect({
        "type": "raw",
        "keep_alive_interval": 10,
        "reconnect_interval": 5,
        "max_attempts": 5
    }).build()

Configure messagepack

from signalrcore.protocol.messagepack_protocol import MessagePackHubProtocol

HubConnectionBuilder()\
            .with_url(self.server_url, options={"verify_ssl":False})\
                ... 
            .with_hub_protocol(MessagePackHubProtocol())\
                ...
            .build()

Events

On Connect / On Disconnect

on_open - fires when connection is opened and ready to send messages on_close - fires when connection is closed

hub_connection.on_open(lambda: print("connection opened and handshake received ready to send messages"))
hub_connection.on_close(lambda: print("connection closed"))

On Hub Error (Hub Exceptions ...)

hub_connection.on_error(lambda data: print(f"An exception was thrown closed{data.error}"))

Register an operation

ReceiveMessage - signalr method print - function that has as parameters args of signalr method

hub_connection.on("ReceiveMessage", print)

Sending messages

SendMessage - signalr method username, message - parameters of signalrmethod

    hub_connection.send("SendMessage", [username, message])

Sending messages with callback

SendMessage - signalr method username, message - parameters of signalrmethod

    send_callback_received = threading.Lock()
    send_callback_received.acquire()
    self.connection.send(
        "SendMessage", # Method
        [self.username, self.message], # Params
        lambda m: send_callback_received.release()) # Callback
    if not send_callback_received.acquire(timeout=1):
        raise ValueError("CALLBACK NOT RECEIVED")

Requesting streaming (Server to client)

hub_connection.stream(
            "Counter",
            [len(self.items), 500]).subscribe({
                "next": self.on_next,
                "complete": self.on_complete,
                "error": self.on_error
            })

Client side Streaming

from signalrcore.subject import  Subject

subject = Subject()

# Start Streaming
hub_connection.send("UploadStream", subject)

# Each iteration
subject.next(str(iteration))

# End streaming
subject.complete()

Chat example

A mini example could be something like this:

import logging
import sys
from signalrcore.hub_connection_builder import HubConnectionBuilder


def input_with_default(input_text, default_value):
    value = input(input_text.format(default_value))
    return default_value if value is None or value.strip() == "" else value


server_url = input_with_default('Enter your server url(default: {0}): ', "wss://localhost:44376/chatHub")
username = input_with_default('Enter your username (default: {0}): ', "mandrewcito")
handler = logging.StreamHandler()
handler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
hub_connection = HubConnectionBuilder()\
    .with_url(server_url, options={"verify_ssl": False}) \
    .configure_logging(logging.DEBUG, socket_trace=True, handler=handler) \
    .with_automatic_reconnect({
            "type": "interval",
            "keep_alive_interval": 10,
            "intervals": [1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 87, 3]
        }).build()

hub_connection.on_open(lambda: print("connection opened and handshake received ready to send messages"))
hub_connection.on_close(lambda: print("connection closed"))

hub_connection.on("ReceiveMessage", print)
hub_connection.start()
message = None

# Do login

while message != "exit()":
    message = input(">> ")
    if message is not None and message != "" and message != "exit()":
        hub_connection.send("SendMessage", [username, message])

hub_connection.stop()

sys.exit(0)
