An IPC based on Websockets. Fast, Stable, and easy-to-use, for inter-communication between your processes or discord.py bots.
Documentation: https://winerp.readthedocs.io/
Discord Server: https://discord.gg/T28F8hju9Y
BREAKING CHANGES (1.4.0):
The message source name is passed to all registered routes. Instead of:@ipc.route() # < v1.4.0 async def route_name(): ...Use:
@ipc.route() # >= v1.4.0 async def route_name(source): ...
- Fast with minimum recorded response time being
< 2ms
- Lightweight, Stable and Easy to integrate.
- No limitation on number of connected clients.
Stable:
pip install -U winerp
Main branch (can be unstable/buggy):
pip install git+https://www.github.com/BlackThunder01001/winerp
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.
- Import the library:
import winerp
- Initialize winerp client:
ipc_client = winerp.Client(local_name = "my-cool-app", port=8080)
- 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"])
Start the server on terminal using $ winerp --port 8080
. You can also start the server using winerp.Server
