An asynchronous event-based python framework designed for building TCP/IP services - run multiple socket, telnet, HTTP and websocket servers from a single async process.
- Project site: https://radiac.net/projects/mara/
- Source code: https://github.com/radiac/mara
- Asynchronous event-based framework
- Supports multiple servers - text, telnet, HTTP and websockets included
Requires Python 3.10 or later, see installation.
See the Documentation for details of how Mara works.
Note: The last release to support Python 2 and 3.9 was version 0.6.3.
Install Mara with pip install mara
, then write your service using
event handlers.
A minimal Mara service looks something like this:
from mara import App, events from mara.servers.socket import SocketServer app = App() app.add_server(SocketServer(host="127.0.0.1", port=9000)) @app.on(events.Receive) async def echo(event: events.Receive): event.connection.write(event.data) app.run()
Save it as echo.py
and run it:
$ python echo.py Server listening: Socket 127.0.0.1:9000
Take a look at the examples to see how to start writing more complex services:
- Chat over a raw text TCP socket, or one with TLS encryption
- Chat over a telnet server
- Chat over a websocket server
- Two servers, one process: chat between a websocket and a telnet server
