流是用于处理网络连接的高级 async/await-ready 原语。流允许发送和接收数据,而不需要使用回调或低级协议和传输。

下面是一个使用 asyncio streams 编写的 TCP echo 客户端示例:

import asyncio

async def tcp_echo_client(message):
    reader, writer = await asyncio.open_connection(
        '127.0.0.1', 8888)

    print(f'Send: {message!r}')
    writer.write(message.encode())
    await writer.drain()

    data = await reader.read(100)
    print(f'Received: {data.decode()!r}')

    print('Close the connection')
    writer.close()
    await writer.wait_closed()

asyncio.run(tcp_echo_client('Hello World!'))

参见下面的 Examples 部分。

Stream 函数

下面的高级 asyncio 函数可以用来创建和处理流:

coroutine asyncio.open_connection(host=None, port=None, *, loop=None, limit=None, ssl=None, family=0, proto=0, flags=0, sock=None, local_addr=None, server_hostname=None, ssl_handshake_timeout=None)P

建立网络连接并返回一对 (reader, writer) 对象。

返回的 readerwriter 对象是 StreamReaderStreamWriter 类的实例。

loop 参数是可选的,当从协程中等待该函数时,总是可以自动确定。

limit 确定返回的 StreamReader 实例使用的缓冲区大小限制。默认情况下,limit 设置为 64 KiB 。

其余的参数直接传递到 loop.create_connection()

3.7 新版功能: ssl_handshake_timeout 形参。

coroutine asyncio.start_server(client_connected_cb, host=None, port=None, *, loop=None, limit=None, family=socket.AF_UNSPEC, flags=socket.AI_PASSIVE, sock=None, backlog=100, ssl=None, reuse_address=None, reuse_port=None, ssl_handshake_timeout=None, start_serving=True)P

启动套接字服务。

The client_connected_cb callback is called whenever a new client connection is established. It receives a (reader, writer) pair as two arguments, instances of the StreamReader and StreamWriter classes.

client_connected_cb can be a plain callable or a coroutine function; if it is a coroutine function, it will be automatically scheduled as a Task.

The loop argument is optional and can always be determined automatically when this method is awaited from a coroutine.

limit 确定返回的 StreamReader 实例使用的缓冲区大小限制。默认情况下,limit 设置为 64 KiB 。

The rest of the arguments are passed directly to loop.create_server().

3.7 新版功能: The ssl_handshake_timeout and start_serving parameters.

Unix Sockets

coroutine asyncio.open_unix_connection(path=None, *, loop=None, limit=None, ssl=None, sock=None, server_hostname=None, ssl_handshake_timeout=None)P

Establish a Unix socket connection and return a pair of (reader, writer).

Similar to open_connection() but operates on Unix sockets.

See also the documentation of loop.create_unix_connection().

Availability: Unix.

3.7 新版功能: ssl_handshake_timeout 形参。

在 3.7 版更改: The path parameter can now be a path-like object

coroutine asyncio.start_unix_server(client_connected_cb, path=None, *, loop=None, limit=None, sock=None, backlog=100, ssl=None, ssl_handshake_timeout=None, start_serving=True)P

启动一个Unix socket服务。

Similar to start_server() but works with Unix sockets.

See also the documentation of loop.create_unix_server().

Availability: Unix.

3.7 新版功能: The ssl_handshake_timeout and start_serving parameters.

在 3.7 版更改: path 形参现在可以是 path-like object 对象。

StreamReaderP

class asyncio.StreamReaderP

Represents a reader object that provides APIs to read data from the IO stream.

It is not recommended to instantiate StreamReader objects directly; use open_connection() and start_server() instead.

coroutine read(n=-1)P

Read up to n bytes. If n is not provided, or set to -1, read until EOF and return all read bytes.

If EOF was received and the internal buffer is empty, return an empty bytes object.

coroutine readline()P

Read one line, where "line" is a sequence of bytes ending with \n.

If EOF is received and \n was not found, the method returns partially read data.

If EOF is received and the internal buffer is empty, return an empty bytes object.

coroutine readexactly(n)P

Read exactly n bytes.

Raise an IncompleteReadError if EOF is reached before n can be read. Use the IncompleteReadError.partial attribute to get the partially read data.

coroutine readuntil(separator=b'\n')P

Read data from the stream until separator is found.

On success, the data and separator will be removed from the internal buffer (consumed). Returned data will include the separator at the end.

If the amount of data read exceeds the configured stream limit, a LimitOverrunError exception is raised, and the data is left in the internal buffer and can be read again.

If EOF is reached before the complete separator is found, an IncompleteReadError exception is raised, and the internal buffer is reset. The IncompleteReadError.partial attribute may contain a portion of the separator.

3.5.2 新版功能.

at_eof()P

Return True if the buffer is empty and feed_eof() was called.

StreamWriterP

class asyncio.StreamWriterP

Represents a writer object that provides APIs to write data to the IO stream.

It is not recommended to instantiate StreamWriter objects directly; use open_connection() and start_server() instead.

write(data)P

The method attempts to write the data to the underlying socket immediately. If that fails, the data is queued in an internal write buffer until it can be sent.

The method should be used along with the drain() method:

stream.write(data)
await stream.drain()
writelines(data)P

The method writes a list (or any iterable) of bytes to the underlying socket immediately. If that fails, the data is queued in an internal write buffer until it can be sent.

The method should be used along with the drain() method:

stream.writelines(lines)
await stream.drain()
close()P

The method closes the stream and the underlying socket.

The method should be used along with the wait_closed() method:

stream.close()
await stream.wait_closed()
can_write_eof()P

Return True if the underlying transport supports the write_eof() method, False otherwise.

write_eof()P

Close the write end of the stream after the buffered write data is flushed.

transportP

Return the underlying asyncio transport.

get_extra_info(name, default=None)P

Access optional transport information; see BaseTransport.get_extra_info() for details.

coroutine drain()P

Wait until it is appropriate to resume writing to the stream. Example:

writer.write(data)
await writer.drain()

This is a flow control method that interacts with the underlying IO write buffer. When the size of the buffer reaches the high watermark, drain() blocks until the size of the buffer is drained down to the low watermark and writing can be resumed. When there is nothing to wait for, the drain() returns immediately.

is_closing()P

Return True if the stream is closed or in the process of being closed.

3.7 新版功能.

coroutine wait_closed()P

Wait until the stream is closed.

Should be called after close() to wait until the underlying connection is closed.

TCP echo client using streamsP

TCP echo client using the asyncio.open_connection() function:

import asyncio

async def tcp_echo_client(message):
    reader, writer = await asyncio.open_connection(
        '127.0.0.1', 8888)

    print(f'Send: {message!r}')
    writer.write(message.encode())

    data = await reader.read(100)
    print(f'Received: {data.decode()!r}')

    print('Close the connection')
    writer.close()

asyncio.run(tcp_echo_client('Hello World!'))

参见

The TCP echo client protocol example uses the low-level loop.create_connection() method.

TCP echo server using streamsP

TCP echo server using the asyncio.start_server() function:

import asyncio

async def handle_echo(reader, writer):
    data = await reader.read(100)
    message = data.decode()
    addr = writer.get_extra_info('peername')

    print(f"Received {message!r} from {addr!r}")

    print(f"Send: {message!r}")
    writer.write(data)
    await writer.drain()

    print("Close the connection")
    writer.close()

async def main():
    server = await asyncio.start_server(
        handle_echo, '127.0.0.1', 8888)

    addr = server.sockets[0].getsockname()
    print(f'Serving on {addr}')

    async with server:
        await server.serve_forever()

asyncio.run(main())

参见

The TCP echo server protocol example uses the loop.create_server() method.

Get HTTP headersP

Simple example querying HTTP headers of the URL passed on the command line:

import asyncio
import urllib.parse
import sys

async def print_http_headers(url):
    url = urllib.parse.urlsplit(url)
    if url.scheme == 'https':
        reader, writer = await asyncio.open_connection(
            url.hostname, 443, ssl=True)
    else:
        reader, writer = await asyncio.open_connection(
            url.hostname, 80)

    query = (
        f"HEAD {url.path or '/'} HTTP/1.0\r\n"
        f"Host: {url.hostname}\r\n"
        f"\r\n"
    )

    writer.write(query.encode('latin-1'))
    while True:
        line = await reader.readline()
        if not line:
            break

        line = line.decode('latin1').rstrip()
        if line:
            print(f'HTTP header> {line}')

    # Ignore the body, close the socket
    writer.close()

url = sys.argv[1]
asyncio.run(print_http_headers(url))

Register an open socket to wait for data using streamsP

Coroutine waiting until a socket receives data using the open_connection() function:

import asyncio
import socket

async def wait_for_data():
    # Get a reference to the current event loop because
    # we want to access low-level APIs.
    loop = asyncio.get_running_loop()

    # Create a pair of connected sockets.
    rsock, wsock = socket.socketpair()

    # Register the open socket to wait for data.
    reader, writer = await asyncio.open_connection(sock=rsock)

    # Simulate the reception of data from the network
    loop.call_soon(wsock.send, 'abc'.encode())

    # Wait for data
    data = await reader.read(100)

    # Got data, we are done: close the socket
    print("Received:", data.decode())
    writer.close()

    # Close the second socket
    wsock.close()

asyncio.run(wait_for_data())

参见

The register an open socket to wait for data using a protocol example uses a low-level protocol and the loop.create_connection() method.

The watch a file descriptor for read events example uses the low-level loop.add_reader() method to watch a file descriptor.
