aio-pika

Wrapper for the PIKA for asyncio and humans. See examples and the tutorial in documentation.

If you are newcomer in the RabbitMQ let's start the adopted official RabbitMQ tutorial

Features

• Completely asynchronous API.
• Object oriented API.
• Transparent auto-reconnects with complete state recovery with connect_robust (e.g. declared queues or exchanges, consuming state and bindings).
• Python 3.4+ compatible (include 3.6).
• Transparent publisher confirms support
• Transactions support

Installation

pip install aio-pika

Usage example

Simple consumer:

import asyncio
import aio_pika


async def main(loop):
    connection = await aio_pika.connect_robust("amqp://guest:guest@127.0.0.1/", loop=loop)

    queue_name = "test_queue"

    # Creating channel
    channel = await connection.channel()    # type: aio_pika.Channel

    # Declaring queue
    queue = await channel.declare_queue(queue_name, auto_delete=True)   # type: aio_pika.Queue

    async for message in queue:
        with message.process():
            print(message.body)

            if queue.name in message.body.decode():
                break


if __name__ == "__main__":
    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    loop.run_until_complete(main(loop))
    loop.close()

Simple publisher:

import asyncio
import aio_pika


async def main(loop):
    connection = await aio_pika.connect_robust("amqp://guest:guest@127.0.0.1/", loop=loop)

    routing_key = "test_queue"

    channel = await connection.channel()    # type: aio_pika.Channel

    await channel.default_exchange.publish(
        aio_pika.Message(
            body='Hello {}'.format(routing_key).encode()
        ),
        routing_key=routing_key
    )

    await connection.close()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    loop.run_until_complete(main(loop))
    loop.close()

Get single message example:

import asyncio
from aio_pika import connect_robust, Message


async def main(loop):
    connection = await connect_robust("amqp://guest:guest@127.0.0.1/", loop=loop)

    queue_name = "test_queue"
    routing_key = "test_queue"

    # Creating channel
    channel = await connection.channel()

    # Declaring exchange
    exchange = await channel.declare_exchange('direct', auto_delete=True)

    # Declaring queue
    queue = await channel.declare_queue(queue_name, auto_delete=True)

    # Binding queue
    await queue.bind(exchange, routing_key)

    await exchange.publish(
        Message(
            bytes('Hello', 'utf-8'),
            content_type='text/plain',
            headers={'foo': 'bar'}
        ),
        routing_key
    )

    # Receiving message
    incoming_message = await queue.get(timeout=5)

    # Confirm message
    incoming_message.ack()

    await queue.unbind(exchange, routing_key)
    await queue.delete()
    await connection.close()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    loop.run_until_complete(main(loop))

Versioning

This software follows Semantic Versioning

For contributors

You feel free to create pull request, but you should describe your cases and add some examples.

The changes should follow simple rules:

• When your changes breaks public API you must increase the major version.
• When your changes is safe for public API (e.g. added an argument with default value)
• You have to add test cases (see tests/ folder)
• You must add docstrings
• You feel free to add yourself to "thank's to" section
