Event-driven concurrent framework for Python. Pulsar's goal is to provide an easy way to build scalable network programs. In the Hello world! webserver example above, many client connections can be handled concurrently. Pulsar tells the operating system (through epoll or select) that it should be notified when a new connection is made, and then it goes to sleep. Pulsar uses the asyncio module from the standard python library and it can be configured to run in multi-processing mode. The http client maintains connections alive (by default 15 seconds) and therefore any requests that you make within a session will automatically reuse the appropriate connection. All connections are released once the session exits the asynchronous with block. Pulsar design allows for a host of different asynchronous applications to be implemented in an elegant and efficient way.
Features
- Pulsar internals are based on actors primitive
- Pulsar checks if some additional libraries are available at runtime, and uses them to add additional functionalities or improve performance
- Pulsar test suite uses the pulsar test application
- The http client maintains connections alive (by default 15 seconds)
- Pulsar's goal is to provide an easy way to build scalable network programs
- Pulsar tells the operating system (through epoll or select) that it should be notified when a new connection is made, and then it goes to sleep
