websockets Description

The websockets library offers a comprehensive implementation of the WebSocket Protocol (RFC 6455 & 7692) for creating both WebSocket servers and clients in Python, emphasizing accuracy, simplicity, durability, and high performance. Utilizing asyncio, which is Python’s built-in asynchronous I/O framework, it presents a sophisticated coroutine-based API that streamlines development. The library has undergone extensive testing to ensure it meets the requirements outlined in RFC 6455, and its continuous integration process mandates that every branch achieves 100% coverage. Designed specifically for production environments, websockets was notably the first library to effectively address backpressure issues before they gained widespread attention in the Python ecosystem. Furthermore, it offers optimized and adjustable memory usage, and utilizes a C extension to enhance performance for demanding operations. The library is conveniently pre-compiled for Linux, macOS, and Windows, and is distributed in wheel format tailored for each system and Python version. With websockets managing the intricate details, developers can dedicate their efforts to building robust applications without concern for the underlying complexities. This makes it an essential tool for developers looking to harness the full potential of WebSocket technology.
