I've a web-socket server which connects with the clients. Following is the code:-
from twisted.internet.protocol import Factory
from twisted.protocols.basic import LineReceiver
from twisted.internet import reactor
class Chat(LineReceiver):
def __init__(self, users):
self.users = users
self.name = None
self.state = "GETNAME"
def connectionMade(self):
self.sendLine("What's your name?")
def connectionLost(self, reason):
if self.users.has_key(self.name):
del self.users[self.name]
def lineReceived(self, line):
if self.state == "GETNAME":
self.handle_GETNAME(line)
else:
self.handle_CHAT(line)
def handle_GETNAME(self, name):
if self.users.has_key(name):
self.sendLine("Name taken, please choose another.")
return
self.sendLine("Welcome, %s!" % (name,))
self.name = name
self.users[name] = self
self.state = "CHAT"
def handle_CHAT(self, message):
# Need to send the message to the connected clients.
class ChatFactory(Factory):
def __init__(self):
self.users = {} # maps user names to Chat instances
def buildProtocol(self, addr):
return Chat(self.users)
reactor.listenTCP(8123, ChatFactory())
reactor.run()
Clients get connected to the above code(server), and sends the data to the server.
Now, I've another python script, basically a scraper which scrapes the web, processes it and finally need to send the data to the connected clients.
script.py
while True:
# call `send_message` function and send data to the connected clients.
How can I achieve it?? Any example would be of great help!!
UPDATE
After using Autobahn
I've a server that fetches data from 3rd party API. I want to send this data to all the connected web-socket clients. Here is my code:-
class MyServerProtocol(WebSocketServerProtocol):
def __init__(self):
self.connected_users = []
self.send_data()
def onConnect(self, request):
print("Client connecting: {0}".format(request.peer))
def onOpen(self):
print("WebSocket connection open.")
self.connected_users.append(self) # adding users to the connected_list
def send_data(self):
# fetch data from the API and forward it to the connected_users.
for u in self.users:
print 1111
u.sendMessage('Hello, Some Data from API!', False)
def onClose(self, wasClean, code, reason):
connected_users.remove(self) # remove user from the connected list of users
print("WebSocket connection closed: {0}".format(reason))
if __name__ == '__main__':
import sys
from twisted.python import log
from twisted.internet import reactor
factory = WebSocketServerFactory(u"ws://127.0.0.1:9000")
factory.protocol = MyServerProtocol
reactor.listenTCP(9000, factory)
reactor.run()
My Server will never receive a message or probably will receive, but as of right now there's no such use-case, hence no need for OnMessage
event for this example).
How do I write my send_data
function in order to send data to all my connected clients??
You need to avoid this pattern when writing software with Twisted:
while True:
# call `send_message` function and send data to the connected clients.
Twisted is a cooperative multitasking system. "Cooperative" means that you have to give up control of execution periodically so that other tasks get a chance to run.
twisted.internet.task.LoopingCall
can be used to replace many while ...
loops (particularly while True
loops):
from twisted.internet.task import LoopingCall
LoopingCall(one_iteration).start(iteration_interval)
This will call one_iteration
every iteration_interval
seconds. In between, it will give up control of execution so other tasks can run.
Making one_iteration
send a message to a client is just a matter of giving one_iteration
a reference to that client (or those clients, if there are many).
This is a variation on the FAQ How do I make Input on One Connection Result in Output on Another .
If you have a ChatFactory
with a dict containing all your clients, just pass that factory to one_iteration
:
LoopingCall(one_iteration, that_factory)
or
LoopingCall(lambda: one_iteration(that_factory))
