Python interface for libuv

Project description

https://badge.fury.io/py/pyuv.png

pyuv is a Python module which provides an interface to libuv. libuv is a high performance asynchronous networking and platform abstraction library.

libuv is built on top of epoll/kequeue/event ports/etc on Unix and IOCP on Windows systems providing a consistent API on top of them.

pyuv’s features:

  • Non-blocking TCP sockets

  • Non-blocking named pipes

  • UDP support (including multicast)

  • Timers

  • Child process spawning

  • Asynchronous DNS resolution (getaddrinfo)

  • Asynchronous file system APIs

  • High resolution time

  • System memory information

  • System CPUs information

  • Network interfaces information

  • Thread pool scheduling

  • ANSI escape code controlled TTY

  • File system events (inotify style and stat based)

  • IPC and TCP socket sharing between processes

  • Arbitrary file descriptor polling

  • Thread synchronization primitives

Running the test suite

There are several ways of running the test ruite:

  • Run the test with the current Python interpreter:

    From the toplevel directory, run: nosetests -v

  • Use Tox to run the test suite in several virtualenvs with several interpreters

    From the toplevel directory, run: tox this will run the test suite on Python 2.7, 3.3 and 3.4 (you’ll need to have them installed beforehand)
