WSAccell

September 1, 2023 ยท View on GitHub

NOTE: AutobahnPython and ws4py are not actively maintained. So I will stop this project too. Please migrate to Tornado <https://www.tornadoweb.org/en/stable/>_ or websockets <https://websockets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/intro.html>_.

WSAccell is WebSocket accelerator for AutobahnPython <https://autobahn.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>, and ws4py <https://github.com/Lawouach/WebSocket-for-Python>.

WSAccell replaces per-byte process in them with Cython version.

AutobahnPython beginning with version 0.6 automatically uses WSAccell if available. Otherwise you can run-time patch supported WebSocket libraries using:

.. code-block:: python

import wsaccel
wsaccel.patch_autobahn()  # for autobahn.
wsaccel.patch_ws4py()     # for ws4py.

test

wsaccel uses pytest <https://pytest.org/>_ for testing.

.. code-block:: console

$ pip install pytest
$ pytest tests
