Frequenz Channels.

This package contains channel implementations.

Channels:

  • Anycast: A channel that supports multiple senders and multiple receivers. A message sent through a sender will be received by exactly one receiver.

  • Bidirectional: A channel providing a client and a service handle to send and receive bidirectionally.

  • Broadcast: A channel to broadcast messages from multiple senders to multiple receivers. Each message sent through any of the senders is received by all of the receivers.

Other base classes:

  • Peekable: An object to allow users to get a peek at the latest value in the channel, without consuming anything.

  • Receiver: An object that can wait for and consume messages from a channel.

  • Sender: An object that can send messages to a channel.

Utilities:

  • util: A module with utilities, like special receivers that implement timers, file watchers, merge receivers, or wait for messages in multiple channels.

Exception classes:

frequenz.channels.Anycast ¤

Bases: Generic[T]

A channel for sending data across async tasks.

Anycast channels support multiple senders and multiple receivers. A message sent through a sender will be received by exactly one receiver.

In cases where each message need to be received by every receiver, a Broadcast channel may be used.

Uses an deque internally, so Anycast channels are not thread-safe.

When there are multiple channel receivers, they can be awaited simultaneously using Select, Merge or MergeNamed.

Example 
async def send(sender: channel.Sender) -> None:
    while True:
        next = random.randint(3, 17)
        print(f"sending: {next}")
        await sender.send(next)


async def recv(id: int, receiver: channel.Receiver) -> None:
    while True:
        next = await receiver.receive()
        print(f"receiver_{id} received {next}")
        await asyncio.sleep(0.1) # sleep (or work) with the data


acast = channel.Anycast()

sender = acast.new_sender()
receiver_1 = acast.new_receiver()

asyncio.create_task(send(sender))

await recv(1, receiver_1)

Check the tests and benchmarks directories for more examples.

    Anycast channels support multiple senders and multiple receivers.  A message sent

    In cases where each message need to be received by every receiver, a
    [Broadcast][frequenz.channels.Broadcast] channel may be used.

frequenz.channels.Broadcast ¤

Bases: Generic[T]

A channel to broadcast messages to multiple receivers.

Broadcast channels can have multiple senders and multiple receivers. Each message sent through any of the senders is received by all of the receivers.

Internally, a broadcast receiver's buffer is implemented with just append/pop operations on either side of a deque, which are thread-safe. Because of this, Broadcast channels are thread-safe.

When there are multiple channel receivers, they can be awaited simultaneously using Select, Merge or MergeNamed.

Example 
async def send(sender: channel.Sender) -> None:
    while True:
        next = random.randint(3, 17)
        print(f"sending: {next}")
        await sender.send(next)


async def recv(id: int, receiver: channel.Receiver) -> None:
    while True:
        next = await receiver.receive()
        print(f"receiver_{id} received {next}")
        await asyncio.sleep(0.1) # sleep (or work) with the data


bcast = channel.Broadcast()

sender = bcast.new_sender()
receiver_1 = bcast.new_receiver()

asyncio.create_task(send(sender))

await recv(1, receiver_1)
