Simple python object proxies over TCP

Teleprox: simple python object proxies over TCP

No declarations required; just access remote objects as if they are local.

Requires

• python 3
• pyzmq
• msgpack

Examples

from teleprox import ProcessSpawner

# start a new process
proc = ProcessSpawner()

# import os in the remote process
remote_os = proc.client._import('os')

# call os.getpid() in the remote process
pid = remote_os.getpid()

# or, call getpid asynchronously and wait for the result:
request = remote_os.getpid(_sync='async')
while not request.hasResult():
    time.sleep(0.01)
pid = request.result()

# write to sys.stdout in the remote process, and ignore the return value
remote_sys = proc.client._import('sys')
remote_sys.stdout.write('hello', _sync='off')

proc.stop()

Teleprox was originally developed as pyacq.core.rpc by the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS).
