# Python plugin runtime for Skygear

[![PyPI](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/skygear.svg)](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/skygear)

When the Skygear Server calls your plugin, `py-skygear` will take the plugin message and calls the appropriate function automatically.

## Documentation
The full documentation for Skygear is available on our docs site. The [Plugin get started guide](https://docs.skygear.io/plugin/guide) is a good place to get started.

## Install py-skygear

Install py-skygear by using pip.

```
$ pip install py-skygear
```

Alternatively, you can install `py-skygear` from source by cloning `py-skygear` from this official repository.

Please see the detail installation guide at the [docs site](https://docs.skygear.io/cloud-code/guide).

## Development

Skygears support three kind of protocol for different use case, make sure you add support to all of them or raise appropriate exception.

Supported protocols: `exec`, `http` and `zmq`

If you want to use zmq, you need to install pyzmq, and respective cbinding.
You can install via homebrew in OSX `brew install zeromq`

During development, the easiest way is to debug your plugin using command line:

```
export DATABASE_URL=postgres://127.0.0.1/skygear?sslmode=disable
export PUBSUB_URL=ws://localhost:3000/pubsub
echo "{}" | py-skygear sample.py --subprocess init
echo "{}" | py-skygear sample.py --subprocess op hello:word
py-skygear sample.py --subprocess handler chima:echo < record.json
py-skygear sample.py --subprocess hook book:beforeSave < record.json
echo "{}" | py-skygear sample.py --subprocess timer plugin.generate_monthly_report
```

Or you may run a long running process that hook with your own skygear-serve
instance.
```
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://localhost/skygear?sslmode=disable \
py-skygear sample.py \
--skygear-address tcp://127.0.0.1:5555 \
--skygear-endpoint http://127.0.0.1:3000 \
--apikey=API_KEY
```
