pyPipe

This module makes it much easier to use named pipes. It only uses multithreading module and os module,The project provides server and client and simple.

API

For Server 
       PipeServer(pipeName, pipeNumber, onCallbackFunc)
For Client
       PipeClient(pipeName, pipChannel)
       PipeClient.connect()
       PipeClient.send(data)
       PipeClient.close()

Examples

Server.py

#!/usr/bin/env python
# coding:utf-8

from Libs.PipeServer import *

# function for data get, must return a string
def onDataRecv(data):
    if data=="AAA":
        return "aaa"
    if data=="BBB":
        return "bbb"
    return "ccc"

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # open 3 pipes for client
    # client can choose one of them by using `PipeClient("PipeTest", n) n=0~2`
    p = PipeServer("Pipe485S0", 3, onDataRecv)
    print("initialized ...")
    while True:
        time.sleep(10)

ClientA.py

#!/usr/bin/env python
#encoding: utf-8

import time
from Libs.PipeClient import *

p = PipeClient("PipeTest", 0)
p.connect()
start = time.time()
for i in range(1000):
    print(p.send("AAA"))
end = time.time()
print("tm:" + str((end-start)*1000))
p.close()

ClientB.py

#!/usr/bin/env python
#encoding: utf-8

import time
from Libs.PipeClient import *

p = PipeClient("PipeTest", 1)
p.connect()
start = time.time()
for i in range(1000):
    print(p.send("BBB"))
end = time.time()
print("tm:" + str((end-start)*1000))
p.close()
