Introduction

This python module provides an asynchroneous version of ping. It is based on the trio framework.

Why this module?

It is not too difficult to perform a ping to multiple hosts in parallel. Suprisingly modules, examples or even binaries to do exactly that are hard to find. This modules now offers a simple solution to that problem.

How to use this module

Import this module

Please include this module into your application using the following code:

import trio
import jk_trioping

Perform single ping

async def main(hostAddress):
	ret = await jk_trioping.ping(
		host = hostAddress,
		timeout = 2,
		repeats = 1
	)
	print(ret)

trio.run(main, "127.0.0.1")

This will perform a single ping to a single host. The result will look something like this:

0.063

Perform multiple pings

async def main(hostAddresses):
	ret = await jk_trioping.multiPing(
		hosts = hostAddresses,
		timeout = 2,
		repeats = 1
	)
	print(ret)

trio.run(main, [ "127.0.0.1", "localhost" ])

This will perform a ping to two hosts (addressing one by IP address, one by name) and print something like this:

{'localhost': 0.071, '127.0.0.1': 0.073}
