Small & shameless Python beanstalkd client

aiostalk

aiostalk is a small and shameless Python client library for communicating with the beanstalkd work queue.

It is based on (and requires) another library called greenstalk by Justin Mayhew.

Getting Started

Presuming beanstalkd running on localhost at standard port.

>>> import asyncio
>>> import aiostalk
>>>
>>> async def main():
...    client = aiostalk.Client(('127.0.0.1', 11300))
...    await client.connect()
...    job_id = await client.put('hello')
...    print(job_id)
...    job = await client.reserve()
...    print(job.id)
...    print(job.body)
...    await client.delete(job)
...    await client.close()
>>>
>>> asyncio.run(main())
1
1
hello

Using the Client as an asyncio context manager is also supported.
