aio-pika
A wrapper around aiormq for asyncio and humans.
Check out the examples and the tutorial in the documentation.
If you are a newcomer to RabbitMQ, please start with the adopted official RabbitMQ tutorial.
Note
Since version 5.0.0
this library doesn't use pika
as AMQP connector.
Versions below 5.0.0
contains or requires pika
's source code.
Note
The version 7.0.0 has breaking API changes, see CHANGELOG.md for migration hints.
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 3.7+ compatible.
- For python 3.5 users, aio-pika is available via aio-pika<7.
- Transparent publisher confirms support.
- Transactions support.
- Complete type-hints coverage.
Installation
pip install aio-pika
Usage example
Simple consumer:
import asyncio
import aio_pika
import aio_pika.abc
async def main(loop):
# Connect with the givien parameters is also valiable.
# aio_pika.connect_robust(host="host", login="login", password="password")
# You can only choose one option to create a connection, url or kw-based params.
connection = await aio_pika.connect_robust(
"amqp://guest:[email protected]/", loop=loop
)
async with connection:
queue_name = "test_queue"
# Creating channel
channel: aio_pika.abc.AbstractChannel = await connection.channel()
# Declaring queue
queue: aio_pika.abc.AbstractQueue = await channel.declare_queue(
queue_name,
auto_delete=True
)
async with queue.iterator() as queue_iter:
# Cancel consuming after __aexit__
async for message in queue_iter:
async 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
import aio_pika.abc
async def main(loop):
# Explicit type annotation
connection: aio_pika.RobustConnection = await aio_pika.connect_robust(
"amqp://guest:[email protected]/", loop=loop
)
routing_key = "test_queue"
channel: aio_pika.abc.AbstractChannel = await connection.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:[email protected]/",
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
await 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))

aiormq
aiormq is a pure python AMQP client library. It is under the hood of aio-pika and might to be used when you really loving works with the protocol low level. Following examples demonstrates the user API.
Simple consumer:
import asyncio
import aiormq
async def on_message(message):
"""
on_message doesn't necessarily have to be defined as async.
Here it is to show that it's possible.
"""
print(f" [x] Received message {message!r}")
print(f"Message body is: {message.body!r}")
print("Before sleep!")
await asyncio.sleep(5) # Represents async I/O operations
print("After sleep!")
async def main():
# Perform connection
connection = await aiormq.connect("amqp://guest:guest@localhost/")
# Creating a channel
channel = await connection.channel()
# Declaring queue
declare_ok = await channel.queue_declare('helo')
consume_ok = await channel.basic_consume(
declare_ok.queue, on_message, no_ack=True
)
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(main())
loop.run_forever()
Simple publisher:
import asyncio
from typing import Optional
import aiormq
from aiormq.abc import DeliveredMessage
MESSAGE: Optional[DeliveredMessage] = None
async def main():
global MESSAGE
body = b'Hello World!'
# Perform connection
connection = await aiormq.connect("amqp://guest:guest@localhost//")
# Creating a channel
channel = await connection.channel()
declare_ok = await channel.queue_declare("hello", auto_delete=True)
# Sending the message
await channel.basic_publish(body, routing_key='hello')
print(f" [x] Sent {body}")
MESSAGE = await channel.basic_get(declare_ok.queue)
print(f" [x] Received message from {declare_ok.queue!r}")
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(main())
assert MESSAGE is not None
assert MESSAGE.routing_key == "hello"
assert MESSAGE.body == b'Hello World!'
patio and the patio-rabbitmq
ThePATIO is an acronym for Python Asynchronous Tasks for AsyncIO - an easily extensible library, for distributed task execution, like celery, only targeting asyncio as the main design approach.
patio-rabbitmq provides you with the ability to use RPC over RabbitMQ services with extremely simple implementation:
from patio import Registry, ThreadPoolExecutor
from patio_rabbitmq import RabbitMQBroker
rpc = Registry(project="patio-rabbitmq", auto_naming=False)
@rpc("sum")
def sum(*args):
return sum(args)
async def main():
async with ThreadPoolExecutor(rpc, max_workers=16) as executor:
async with RabbitMQBroker(
executor, amqp_url="amqp://guest:guest@localhost/",
) as broker:
await broker.join()
And the caller side might be written like this:
import asyncio
from patio import NullExecutor, Registry
from patio_rabbitmq import RabbitMQBroker
async def main():
async with NullExecutor(Registry(project="patio-rabbitmq")) as executor:
async with RabbitMQBroker(
executor, amqp_url="amqp://guest:guest@localhost/",
) as broker:
print(await asyncio.gather(
*[
broker.call("mul", i, i, timeout=1) for i in range(10)
]
))
Propanπ₯
Propan is a powerful and easy-to-use Python framework for building event-driven applications that interact with any MQ Broker.
If you need no deep dive into RabbitMQ details, you can use more high-level Propan interfaces:
from propan import PropanApp, RabbitBroker
broker = RabbitBroker("amqp://guest:guest@localhost:5672/")
app = PropanApp(broker)
@broker.handle("user")
async def user_created(user_id: int):
assert isinstance(user_id, int)
return f"user-{user_id}: created"
@app.after_startup
async def pub_smth():
assert (
await broker.publish(1, "user", callback=True)
) == "user-1: created"
Also, Propan validates messages by pydantic, generates your project AsyncAPI spec, tests application locally, RPC calls, and more.
In fact, it is a high-level wrapper on top of aio-pika, so you can use both of these libraries' advantages at the same time.
python-socketio
Socket.IO is a transport protocol that enables real-time bidirectional event-based communication between clients (typically, though not always, web browsers) and a server. This package provides Python implementations of both, each with standard and asyncio variants.
Also this package is suitable for building messaging services over RabbitMQ via aio-pika adapter:
import socketio
from aiohttp import web
sio = socketio.AsyncServer(client_manager=socketio.AsyncAioPikaManager())
app = web.Application()
sio.attach(app)
@sio.event
async def chat_message(sid, data):
print("message ", data)
if __name__ == '__main__':
web.run_app(app)
And a client is able to call chat_message the following way:
import asyncio
import socketio
sio = socketio.AsyncClient()
async def main():
await sio.connect('http://localhost:8080')
await sio.emit('chat_message', {'response': 'my response'})
if __name__ == '__main__':
asyncio.run(main())
taskiq and the taskiq-aio-pika
TheTaskiq is an asynchronous distributed task queue for python. The project takes inspiration from big projects such as Celery and Dramatiq. But taskiq can send and run both the sync and async functions.
The library provides you with aio-pika broker for running tasks too.
from taskiq_aio_pika import AioPikaBroker
broker = AioPikaBroker()
@broker.task
async def test() -> None:
print("nothing")
async def main():
await broker.startup()
await test.kiq()
Rasa
With over 25 million downloads, Rasa Open Source is the most popular open source framework for building chat and voice-based AI assistants.
With Rasa, you can build contextual assistants on:
- Facebook Messenger
- Slack
- Google Hangouts
- Webex Teams
- Microsoft Bot Framework
- Rocket.Chat
- Mattermost
- Telegram
- Twilio
Your own custom conversational channels or voice assistants as:
- Alexa Skills
- Google Home Actions
Rasa helps you build contextual assistants capable of having layered conversations with lots of back-and-forth. In order for a human to have a meaningful exchange with a contextual assistant, the assistant needs to be able to use context to build on things that were previously discussed β Rasa enables you to build assistants that can do this in a scalable way.
And it also uses aio-pika to interact with RabbitMQ deep inside!
