raftos
Asynchronous replication framework based on Raft Algorithm for fault-tolerant distributed systems.
Install
pip install raftos
Register nodes on every server
import raftos
loop.create_task(
raftos.register(
# node running on this machine
'127.0.0.1:8000',
# other servers
cluster=[
'127.0.0.1:8001',
'127.0.0.1:8002'
]
)
)
loop.run_forever()
Data replication
counter = raftos.Replicated(name='counter')
data = raftos.ReplicatedDict(name='data')
# value on a leader gets replicated to all followers
await counter.set(42)
await data.update({
'id': 337,
'data': {
'amount': 20000,
'created_at': '7/11/16 18:45'
}
})
In case you only need consensus algorithm with leader election
await raftos.wait_until_leader(current_node)
or
if raftos.get_leader() == current_node:
# make request or respond to a client
or
raftos.configure({
'on_leader': start,
'on_follower': stop
})
Whenever the leader falls, someone takes its place.
