⁠InteractionFree for Python

InteractionFree⁠ is a remote procedure call (RPC) protocol based on ZeroMQ⁠. It allows the developers to build their own distributed and cross-languige program easily. The protocol is config-less and extremly easy to use. Currently, Msgpack⁠ is used for binary serialization. InteractionFree implementation is already available in various languages (including Scala, Javascript, Arduino). More infomation will be available soon.

• InteractionFree specification: to be drafted.

⁠Quick Start

Install

$ pip install interactionfreepy

Start the sever

from interactionfreepy import IFBroker

broker = IFBroker('tcp://*:port')
IFLoop.join()

replace port to any port number that is available.

IFLoop.join() is a utility function to prevent the program from finishing.

Start a worker

from interactionfreepy import IFWorker

class Target():
    def tick(self, message):
        return "tack %s" % message

worker = IFWorker('tcp://address:port', 'TargetService', Target())
IFLoop.join()

replace address and port to the server's net address and port.

Start a client

from interactionfreepy import IFWorker

client = IFWorker('tcp://address:port')
print(client.TargetService.tick('now'))
