parsec-py

A Parsec client library for the Python 3 world. Implements interaction with the wire protocol along with a minimal subset of the Parsec operations.

Building

Building parsec-py has two dependencies for protobuf:

  • protoc
  • betterproto You can install protoc through your choice of package manager (on apt this is protobuf-compiler), and betterproto through pip install "betterproto[compiler]". To build the protobuf files, simply run make protobuf.

Usage

To connect to the Parsec daemon, you will have to know what socket is being listened on. By default, this is /run/parsec/parsec.sock, however if you're using the quick start download version of Parsec this will be different.

stream = ParsecStream()
stream.parsec_socket_path = args.socket_path
stream.connect()

After this point, you can send commands through Parsec.

# Ping the API.
(majwire, minwire) = operations.ping.ping(stream)
