Kangaroo is a user-friendly lib for sockets in Python. You can send and listen to TCP sockets with a few lines of code.
First you need Python installed (version 3.6+ is required), then you can install Kangaroo:
$ pip install kangaroo-sockets
Import it ib your code:
import Kangaroo
(Optional) install Jaguar for testing the sockets:
$ brew tap leozz37/jaguar
$ brew install jaguar
Sample code for sending and listening to a port:
from src.kangaroo import Kangaroo
import threading
import time
def listen_port(port: int):
r = Kangaroo().listen(port)
while True:
if r.has_new_message():
print(r.get_message())
if __name__ == '__main__':
x = threading.Thread(target=listen_port, args=(3000,))
y = threading.Thread(target=listen_port, args=(3001,))
x.start()
y.start()
while True:
Kangaroo().send(3000, "Hello")
Kangaroo().send(3001, "World")
time.sleep(1)
The library consists on two features: listen and send to a given port. You can check the full documentation on pypi.
Receives a port as int
and returns a Kangaroo instance.
def listen(self, port: int):
Usage example:
kangaroo = Kangaroo()
r = kangaroo.listen(3000)
l = kangaroo.listen(3001)
Receives a port and a message, both as string
.
def send(self, port: int, message: str) -> None:
Usage example:
kangaroo = Kangaroo()
r = kangaroo.listen(3000)
kangaroo.send(3000, "Hello, World!")
has_new_messages()
returns a bool
if there's a new message:
def has_new_message(self) -> bool:
get_message()
returns the last message as str
:
def get_message(self) -> str:
Usage example:
import Kangaroo
if __name__ == '__main__':
kangaroo = Kangaroo()
r = kangaroo.listen(3000)
kangaroo.send(3000, "Hello world")
if r.has_new_message():
print(r.get_message())
This project uses pipenv and pre-commit in order to run some static checks and formatting on the code. After clone the repository you need to create a new virtual environment and install the dependencies:
$ pipenv shell
$ pipenv install --dev --skip-lock
$ pre-commit install
Every time you run the git commit
command the code will be checked. To
run the checking manually, run:
$ pre-commit run --all-files
The tests uses the pytest framework. To run the test suit with coverage you can do the following:
$ pytest --cov=. -v
