tcpserv

Simple python socket helper library to implement stateless tcp-servers.

Usage

Put the tcpserv.py file in your app-folder or anywhere in your PYTHONPATH.

Set-up Server

Define stateless server logic by a handler function f: str -> str:

def my_handler(request): return "".join(reversed(request))

Start the server (serves forever):

from tcpserv import listen
listen("localhost", 55555, my_handler)

You can quit the call by catching signals, e.g., Ctrl-C:

try:
  listen("localhost", 55555, my_handler
except KeyboardInterrupt, e:
  pass

Make Requests

from tcpserv import request
for i in xrange(100):
  print request("localhost", 55555, "request %d" % i)
