<hr class="docutils" />
<p>This module provides the basic infrastructure for writing asynchronous  socket
service clients and servers.</p>
<p>There are only two ways to have a program on a single processor do  &#8220;more than
one thing at a time.&#8221; Multi-threaded programming is the  simplest and most
popular way to do it, but there is another very different technique, that lets
you have nearly all the advantages of  multi-threading, without actually using
multiple threads.  It&#8217;s really  only practical if your program is largely I/O
bound.  If your program is processor bound, then pre-emptive scheduled threads
are probably what you really need.  Network servers are rarely processor
bound, however.</p>
<p>If your operating system supports the <tt class="xref c c-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">select()</span></tt> system call in its I/O
library (and nearly all do), then you can use it to juggle multiple
communication channels at once; doing other work while your I/O is taking
place in the &#8220;background.&#8221;  Although this strategy can seem strange and
complex, especially at first, it is in many ways easier to understand and
control than multi-threaded programming.  The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-asyncore" title="asyncore: A base class for developing asynchronous socket handling services."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">asyncore</span></tt></a> module solves
many of the difficult problems for you, making the task of building
sophisticated high-performance network servers and clients a snap.  For
&#8220;conversational&#8221; applications and protocols the companion <a class="reference internal" href="asynchat.html#module-asynchat" title="asynchat: Support for asynchronous command/response protocols."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">asynchat</span></tt></a>
module is invaluable.</p>
<p>The basic idea behind both modules is to create one or more network
<em>channels</em>, instances of class <a class="reference internal" href="#asyncore.dispatcher" title="asyncore.dispatcher"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">asyncore.dispatcher</span></tt></a> and
<a class="reference internal" href="asynchat.html#asynchat.async_chat" title="asynchat.async_chat"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">asynchat.async_chat</span></tt></a>.  Creating the channels adds them to a global
map, used by the <a class="reference internal" href="#asyncore.loop" title="asyncore.loop"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">loop()</span></tt></a> function if you do not provide it with your own
<em>map</em>.</p>
<p>Once the initial channel(s) is(are) created, calling the <a class="reference internal" href="#asyncore.loop" title="asyncore.loop"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">loop()</span></tt></a> function
activates channel service, which continues until the last channel (including
any that have been added to the map during asynchronous service) is closed.</p>
<dl class="function">
<dt id="asyncore.loop">

<dd><p>Enter a polling loop that terminates after count passes or all open
channels have been closed.  All arguments are optional.  The <em>count</em>
parameter defaults to None, resulting in the loop terminating only when all
channels have been closed.  The <em>timeout</em> argument sets the timeout
parameter for the appropriate <a class="reference internal" href="select.html#module-select" title="select: Wait for I/O completion on multiple streams."><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">select()</span></tt></a> or <tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">poll()</span></tt> call, measured
in seconds; the default is 30 seconds.  The <em>use_poll</em> parameter, if true,
indicates that <tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">poll()</span></tt> should be used in preference to <a class="reference internal" href="select.html#module-select" title="select: Wait for I/O completion on multiple streams."><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">select()</span></tt></a>
(the default is <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">False</span></tt>).</p>
<p>The <em>map</em> parameter is a dictionary whose items are the channels to watch.
As channels are closed they are deleted from their map.  If <em>map</em> is
omitted, a global map is used. Channels (instances of
<a class="reference internal" href="#asyncore.dispatcher" title="asyncore.dispatcher"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">asyncore.dispatcher</span></tt></a>, <a class="reference internal" href="asynchat.html#asynchat.async_chat" title="asynchat.async_chat"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">asynchat.async_chat</span></tt></a> and subclasses

<dd><p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#asyncore.dispatcher" title="asyncore.dispatcher"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">dispatcher</span></tt></a> class is a thin wrapper around a low-level socket
object. To make it more useful, it has a few methods for event-handling
which are called from the asynchronous loop.   Otherwise, it can be treated
as a normal non-blocking socket object.</p>
<p>The firing of low-level events at certain times or in certain connection
states tells the asynchronous loop that certain higher-level events have
taken place.  For example, if we have asked for a socket to connect to
another host, we know that the connection has been made when the socket
becomes writable for the first time (at this point you know that you may
write to it with the expectation of success).  The implied higher-level
events are:</p>
<table border="1" class="docutils">
<colgroup>
<col width="35%" />
<col width="65%" />
</colgroup>
<thead valign="bottom">
<tr class="row-odd"><th class="head">Event</th>
<th class="head">Description</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody valign="top">
<tr class="row-even"><td><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">handle_connect()</span></tt></td>
<td>Implied by the first read or write
event</td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-odd"><td><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">handle_close()</span></tt></td>
<td>Implied by a read event with no data
available</td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-even"><td><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">handle_accept()</span></tt></td>
<td>Implied by a read event on a listening
socket</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>During asynchronous processing, each mapped channel&#8217;s <a class="reference internal" href="#asyncore.dispatcher.readable" title="asyncore.dispatcher.readable"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">readable()</span></tt></a> and
<a class="reference internal" href="#asyncore.dispatcher.writable" title="asyncore.dispatcher.writable"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">writable()</span></tt></a> methods are used to determine whether the channel&#8217;s socket
should be added to the list of channels <tt class="xref c c-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">select()</span></tt>ed or
<tt class="xref c c-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">poll()</span></tt>ed for read and write events.</p>
<p>Thus, the set of channel events is larger than the basic socket events.  The
full set of methods that can be overridden in your subclass follows:</p>
